Needs to consult with an experienced resume writer.  Perhaps rsmithnumbers could be of assistance.
The DUmmie should drop him a note.

Locust shouldn't drop him a note, he should post the C.V. in the Lounge so that all of the DUmmies can help him edit it...

How would you handle a lack of Job References?
So I'm FINALLY starting to look for work.  About time.  What took you so long?

There's a big problem with LocoNuts's CV.

He doesn't have a V.

I think the Locust's best bet is to list his previous psychoanalysts.   :fuelfire:

Think about it: they're (theoretically) responsible adults who know the Locust, and yet are limited by doctor-patient confidentiality as to what they can actually disclose about how ****ed up this man-cub is.

Walmart maybe  trying to weed out the lone gunmen who were always polite, kept to themselves, and had no friends.

Loco...seriously. We both know you will quit this job in a matter of days.
Maybe you should try a temp agency. Work a few days. Go home and weep uncontrollably. Get assigned a new job for a few days. Time it right and no one will know you are stressing out every 3 or 4 days.

And then maybe you can find an Emo-chick, and you can freak out together.

Maybe, with a little luck, it could prove fatal.   :fuelfire:

Loco sums up the worst of the "me" generation.

Memo to DUmmies:  It's okay to say, "References available upon request," but make sure you actually have people you can use, meaning 1--you've asked them, 2--you can rely on them to give you a positive endorsement.  Matter of fact, mentioning these folks during the course of the interview in a roundabout way, like, "Well, when I worked for so-and-so at this job,"....

Oh wait.  That'll never work, because that's where you got fired.  Don't do that.  Just use your mommy.

Only references I ever used would be my last job.   When I had to move and quit my job I always asked to be put on the rehire list.   

When asked for references for a job, giving them the name of last employer and being on rehire list works better then the name of Uncle Bill with an address at the County Jail.

I believe the last job LocoNuts had was night clerk at a small motel.

He couldn't take the pressure, broke down, and just stopped going to work.

That was him, wasn't it? A lot of lunatics sound alike.

No, that was another lunatic somewhere in Maine:

I think that there were two with similar circumstances.

A month or so ago, I asked the same question. That's when it was pointed out the similarities.

You can't tell the DUmmies without a scorecard.
