Hard-Working Office Tech Owner of Results and Integrity
Resume:
Dear Hiring Professionals,
I would greatly appreciate any office job. My last seven years of employment are of jobs getting worse, and my current role is not what I applied for (long commute, odd hours, homeless clean up). I have great skills with software, as demonstrated by my website, FunPayroll.com. I can manage people and payroll as well. For the last five years, I have been working two full-time jobs, I’ve suffered financial losses, worked on disabled feet, and had no home, only a car. I have never been married, and I do not have kids. My situation would make sense if I had low standards or was a novice developer. It would make sense if I had a criminal record or was an alcoholic. I’ve never been any of these things, so, please help make things right for me by giving me an opportunity to work in an office environment. Despite being very grateful for this opportunity, I bring tremendous value to the organization (I do not use vacation or sick days) and I will work hard for long periods (80 hours+) with no complaints (all smiles). I usually crush the competition. I understand how businesses work, and I will bring the most benefit to your organization, no complaints.
Sincerely,
Christopher Kipling Upton
