Saw this billboard the other day for Holiday Inn Express (See Photo):

“Guest Rated #1 Shower”

They’re kidding… right? They mean to tell me that the showers at Holiday Inn Express are so good that their guests take the time to rate them? To say, "WOW? "R – i – g – h - t! I want Holiday Inn Express to produce the survey for me. I mean did it really have a question like:

LOL! Sorry that the story stressed you out. Sorry to hear that you had a similar experience. We started calling our car the "death machine!" Everytime my wife and I would use it, we said our goodbyes to each other never knowing if we'd return home safely! Have a great day. I have to go the the mechanic right now and pick up my Xterra! UGH!

10 Ways How NOT to Land a Job Interview! by Ted Eleftheriou

Ted Eleftheriou — Thu, 09 Apr 2009 18:08:53 -0400

10. Create a Resume that Stinks: Don’t proofread your resume. Allow misspelled words, use poor grammar, create a confusing layout, print it on copy machine paper, and make sure the words are hard to read by using an ink cartridge that is just about out of ink.

9. Don’t Send a Cover Letter: Never send a cover letter with your resume. Ever! If you do send one, you run the risk that the company will call you for an interview. Don’t take that chance.

I lived in Los Angeles where it wasn’t uncommon to see an unfortunate soul at the end of a freeway offramp with a sign that read: “Will Work for Food.”

What if you had a sign (If you’ve read my last post you’ll see that I’m on this “sign” thing lately) that read: “Will Work For Free?” Better yet, let’s change it to read: “Will Work for Donations.” How would you do? Would you make any money?

During a horrific battle in 1793, a 24-year old captain had to establish an artillery battery that was in such an exposed position and so close to the enemy that he couldn’t find any soldiers to man it… even under direct orders. It was suicidal.

But this young officer knew that this artillery position was crucial to the outcome of the battle. Undeterred, he had an officer make a sign with large, bold letters and placed it on the battery for all to see. The sign read:

“THE BATTERY OF THE MEN WITHOUT FEAR”
