To Don't Tuesdays....

Don't be afraid to pave over those pesky Resume' gaps: With the rate of unemployment rising with every bat of an eyelash, now is the time to start to think proactively. None of us want to be the one who has to deliver the Pink Slip news to family, friends & {soon-to-be} ex-coworkers. We all hope that we have done enough in our job areas to have positioned ourselves to be that one all important thing to our employers...indispensible. We live now, in economic times that have us questioning if nepotism or familial ties are enough to keep us in the coveted positions that have made it possible to live the life of comfort that we have grown accustomed.
Instead of waiting for the hammer to come {and secretly wishing and hoping that it won't swing in your direction}, here's a project that will help you pave over those pesky Resume' gaps. It's all in the wording ...
