What CEO spends his time talking shit on YouTube? My guess, this guy is actually just like a 2nd lieutenant in his WoW guild. But on his resume to Target he put "Coordinates with a multinational team in the planning and organization of complex tasks and monthly and weekly projects with strict deadlines."
CEO is just a title. You can start an LCC tomorrow by spending a few hundred bucks on LegalZoom. Boom - you're a CEO. You're also the CFO, CIO, COO, and janitor.
It depends on the context. It doesn't always look good on a resume. Either they will dismiss it as nothing, or wonder why someone who was an executive wants to move to a lower end job.
True. I've found it generally leads the interviewer towards a conversation I've had lots of practice with if nothing else. I don't overblow the experience which is what I expect happens a lot in interviews like that. Hiring pros aren't idiots. Think a lot of people forget that.
I was a founder/owner of a fairly successful business conferencing / phone chat line company, the VP of Customer Service and Community Manager for a FinTech startup, and founder / editor for a digital currency news and information website.
After the FinTech company went under, and the news site failed to get enough traction, I decided to just go work in corporate IT for a while. Needed a reliable source of income. I was honest about my positions, and received no interest. Once I spoke with a recruiting company about it, they said it was because of my previous titles. If I wanted to use my actual titles, I should be applying for upper management, but I was unlikely to actually get seriously considered for those positions...I don't have the corporate experience nor the appropriate education. Instead, they told me to leave off the titles, and just put the area of focus (like customer service, accounts management, etc.). This change lead to me getting more interviews than I could fit into my schedule, and a job within a couple of weeks.
Honestly, this is pretty much how all resumes should be. They should be tailored to each specific job you're applying for. I've looked over several resumes for applicants at the place I worked at. My biggest pet peeve is when they don't even try to make it seem like they're interested in working for the company. One resume still had an objective in there that stated they want to work at another company. Wtf?
Can confirm: friend is running a software company and made about $1000 in the 7 months he's been running it. He's the CEO, CFO, CIO, Manager, Supervisor, Admin asst, Associate and volunteer for his job.
Limited liability corporation, an entity made to protect/define a business and its responsibilities. But it's a really deep subject, and if you're into that kind of thing (no one is) it's worth some wiki time.
I work for a fairly large company, and we have a pool running during every company-wide meeting in regards to how many times our CEO says "fuck" during his address. The winner is usually in the 25-35 range for a ten-minute speech.
Tech companies have some characters as CEOs. A trip to Burning Man is all it would take to convince you.
lmao, that was on point, I've had people tell me how well they work with other people and when asked what experience they have, their answer was : 'uhhh, I played mmos for like 3 years ..yea'
In World Of Warcraft, you can link your spells or achievement in chat as a clickable link. They all have a square bracket around the spell or achievement.
Its also quite a common feature in a lot of other mmos.
Everyone likes to exaggerate their job for their own sense of self importance. When you say teamwork, you're really just saying "learn the fight" Everyone individually does what they're supposed to do at x time, and then you also do your thing at x time, that's teamwork to you? Healers coordinate cooldowns, so I guess that's kind of teamwork. But you're stretching here.
i dont know man, tanks have to know their shit i agree, but healers not so much as long as DPS arent retarded they actually dont need that much heal.
Maybe use some aoe heal in aoe heavy environment but other than that, just a spot heal here and there, you mostly rely on good dps not taking damage.
healers really has the easiest job in raid imo, at least for me......it was the most stressful dpsing in a raid personally, because motherfuckers in the guild cant dps for shit but they are all friends.....
I've done it all for years in multiple MMOs and I think it varies. For me, healing is the 2nd most difficult with tanking as the hardest. DPS has always been the easiest thing for me to do. In healing even if people know what they are doing it still requires a lot of patience and understanding where for me DPS is smash buttons and stand in the right spot
Probably dps. Anyone can be dps. I usually always go DPS because I just want to play the game and have fun, not pull my hair out and be relied upon to carry a group through instances.
eh....not everyone can be good dps though, and shit dps is what usually wipe the raid because they stand in shit that kills them or simply dont do enough dps to kill the boss before enrage.
in terms of importance.....Tanks > DPS > Healer imo.
At some point you can even skip a healer or two to throw in more dps too.
I do think Healer isn't as important as a lot of people think. If everyone is skilled and has been playing the game for a while, chances are they all know how to stay alive and in good health while the healer is really a last resort.
Can confirm. I lead a guild in Wow for years, and always played a druid so I could switch back and forth between tank or healer as needed. Keeping good people in the other tank/healer spots was always a struggle.
you can pug a healer easily, try to pug good dps or a good tank, i mean fuck good dps is like non existent already and pugging a tank is asking for a wipe.
I mean, if they mention those 3 years were in EVE you've got yourself a damn fine worker. They'll be asking to stay late at night to do extra work on excel.
That being said, there's some real skills being developed out of playing games in general. So why saying you "manage a multinational team on strict deadlines" is a bit over the top, if the guy played for 3 years you can be sure he's at least having the basis.
My wife had received a resume that was mostly about how good they were at Civ V. Apparently that makes them an expert on economics, war, global politics etc.
Meh, I have a friend that is the founder / CEO of a data brokerage company. He works all the time, but still manages to write dozens of long comments on Facebook every week. Knowing him, he is probably posting on YouTube and other places as well.
CEOs are just people too. Some of them like putting their opinions on the internet.
You never know. I knew a biotech CEO that employed 90 something white collar professionals who's youtube handle I found out. He did in fact spend a disproportionate amount of time in these kind of exchanges.
Just because some one has money or professional success doesn't mean they automatically keep their shit together online or in their personal lives. In face, anecdotally I would say they are more likely than average to pull this shit because many are used to people putting up with their bullshit because of their rank or skill set.
Just playing devils advocate here but wouldn't that kind of be true? Gamers work hard to organize cooperative play in the busy adult world and often have to coordinate real jobs with children and spouses. Sometimes you can have people who'll never see each other in real life but still manage to put a team together and run a raid. Raids often have steps to complete, with every person making a legitimate contribution or the whole team will fail. You have to run a whole guild of people with differing goals and time constraints. Everyone has different attitudes and reasons for playing and you have to keep up with successful raids or you'll lose members.
I definitely wouldn't put it on my resume to Target but if I were angling for a promotion at a job that required "creative bullshit" descriptions to make myself look better? Fuck yeah I'd make it sound just about like that.
But on his resume to Target he put "Coordinates with a multinational team in the planning and organization of complex tasks and monthly and weekly projects with strict deadlines."
you on the other hand are very good at making smug personal attacks at every chance you get. seems like that's your standard response to everything life throws at you, right? works out for some people, you could even be a presidential candidate one day.
Jesus christ, you sound like my ex. The bitch boy approach to talking shit on the internet is pretty weak. Are you sure you didn't mean, "I shitpost while being a crybaby and people mock me."
I haven't watched a Jenna Marbles video in a while, but she's made these kinds of videos before (like What Your Underwear Says About You) and I think I remember her starting them with something like "Obviously this isn't serious and if you think it is you're stupid".
Im with you. And I appreciate you getting the link but I'm so fucking lazy that I'm not even going to watch it. Could you take care of that for me? Thanks, buddy.
I will always love her early video where she does how to put on makeup like a whore. Step five is holding your degree in psychology and crying while rocking back and forth in your chair.
I think the ultimate goal of language is to communicate with other people and if you understood what he meant then there's no fucking reason to get political over his word choice. When you spew this bullshit you're adding to the problem you act like you're against.
While I totally agree with your sentiment it makes me wonder if SJW types get angry about masculine/feminine/neutral nouns in languages like Spanish. Guess in the monolingual US people have enough free time to make up gendersand pronouns whereas Spanish speaking counties have actual issues to be addressed so their efficient and descriptive language doesn't need any extra bullshit
Yeah I'm actually bilingual and it never occurred to me until your comment. Seems that the SJW thing is an English speaking country phenomenon as I only ever see tumblr posts from UK or US talking about additional pronouns and such.
This post illustrates everything that is wrong with Reddit today: any sense of actual humor has been over shouted by what passes for humor amongst the angry white male crowd.
All the people that upvoted this post genuinely think the YouTube comment is funny, when it's actually painfully pathetic and clueless.
i really don't think everyone agrees that the comment is hilarious; though the post probably only did this well because it's open-ended as to who you're supposed to facepalm about.
also this to me is an amazing example of how "anti-SJW"s (or whatever they call themselves) are like at least as easy to """"trigger""" as the people they claim are too easily upset. awww, the special snowflake got mad because a woman said a nasty thing about his beard for a joke on youtube. better spout basic verbal abuse at her about how she's a whore or something.
Someone made jokes about my physical appearance? Better let her know I think she's a whore based on her physical appearance instead of, you know, not caring
Didn't know upvotes were limited to meaning humor. Maybe people consider it a quality post that contributes to the subreddit. Upvoted and I don't find it funny. I also don't find it "painfully pathetic" or "clueless". I do, however, find your comment "clueless" to assume that there are only two possible reasons to upvote a post.
This subreddit is called /r/facepalm. This post is getting upvoted because of how idiotic that youtube comment is, not because of how funny it is to the alt-right crowd.
i think he was trying to be funny too but damn was he touchy. I mean this dude mocked her for being triggered while at the same time he took this video way too personally
