I'm sorry to say it, but this resume is very poorly written. You do not want to use this when you try to get a job.

Also, your math is off. $12.50 an hour is $28,000, which doesn't jive with your salary expectation of at least $35,000. $55,000 a year is nearly $26.50 an hour, over twice your hourly expectation. That salary is more appropriate for a very skilled, experienced administrative assistant, perhaps one working for an executive, not someone whose last position was a team member at Wal-mart. It sounds like you are starting out in that line of work, so you should expect to make entry-level pay.

Lowest I will expect Salary 35,000 to 55,000 yearly
Pay rate $12.50 to $13.00

I don't understand the above...which is it?

Neither $12.50 or $13.00 total to 35,000 or 55,000 based on a 40 hour week.

Oh, please! How can anyone take this thread seriously? Did you read the poster's screen name? Has anyone here ever seen SNL? Have you actually read the content of the "resume"?

In the immortal words of Ashton Kusher: "You be punked," people! LOL!

Well, if he tried to sell me a Bass-o-matic, I'd probably notice. I've never seen Punk'd. Watching Ashton Kutcher gives me forehead wrinkles.

So you barely got two pages out of this crude little exercise... Guess you're just not as clever as you thought. Better luck next time, Ina!

Maybe if I post in different colors and fonts like other attention hounds I'll get better feedback....

Sure -- try that, and add some emoticons, too -- you're sure not gonna get positive feedback based on your content or on your "clever" screen name, Ina!

In the meantime, you've been put on my ignore list. Have a lovely evening -- "down by the river"!
