Wed, 22:19: Pardon my rambling this morning, I had no way of editing it without lag.
Wed, 22:25: #guerillamarketing pg xxv 'chain letter email', may be the wrong term to use. Makes me worry any request for leads will be in spam folder
Wed, 22:31: #guerillamarketing pg xxviii 'Do you remember seeing 24M job openings?' Ok, I know 2009-2010, I was focused on applying to UW. So, no clue
Wed, 22:32: I did make an effort to go to company websites & see their postings. However, search engines vary from co to co, so results varied.
Wed, 22:35: Also varied: job titles. Some offered keyword search to compare tasks and requirements. However, even that was hard w/ synonyms or jargon
Wed, 22:37: I can understand the purpose of jargon-separate the insiders from someone spraying resumes. However, I had been interested in words since 5
Wed, 22:39: Siblings ask me what words mean. If it is in English, and I don't understand it, in my mind, the author has challenged me to a duel
Wed, 22:41: However, I feel time pressure-get it out now or never. Cannot decipher every post :(
Wed, 22:48: #guerillamarketing pg xxix Hey, I know how to do that! Next up, use strings with selected job titles to see if I come up
Wed, 22:50: Also, build Boolean string to incorporate known variants of job family. Test & record results. Suggestions where?

Wed, 23:01: #guerillamarketing pg xxxii Do people still use MySpace? Anyway, much has been said about embarrassing info on social networks.
Wed, 23:04: I have links to fiction on current site. Make new site, split into 2 pages on one site, or warn? #poll
Wed, 23:07: Part of it is avoiding workplaces where I don't feel accepted or comfortable, and can't use imagination. Enough of that in my past.
Thu, 12:01: #guerillamarketing pg xxxiv 'start work before you're hired' I had been looking for old abstracts to send last night, and saw other pieces
Thu, 12:03: I completed them to show I could do the work. After work, between lunch & breaks, samples for research, tech writing, dbs, code.
Thu, 12:06: I look at them. They could be improved. Is that why I haven't gotten interviews or offers when samples are sent? Not much fb-one suggestion
Thu, 12:22: #guerillamarketing pg xxxviii QR tags-I had wondered how to fill gaps when time or technology marches on. Like when archie/gopher appears
Thu, 12:24: This seems like a good idea, but if smart phones are replaced? Errata (we)blog?
Thu, 12:34: Part of the non-response is my doing. I polish myself, but I don't promote. I have no boundary between outgoing & rude. I rehearse in head.
Thu, 12:36: By then, others have made the deadline and gotten the prize. I will assume they were as good or better than me. I want to get balance right

Thu, 12:43: If I do not check what I say, I can get whiny or angry. I try to make what I say fair and objective. It is hard to do; I procrastinate
Thu, 12:58: Someone told me once that I aim too high: up against tougher competition. I know how to close skills gap, I try, and it's tiring
Thu, 12:59: People have offered to help: if I knew how, I would take them up on it
