Steve, interesting you bring that up as the best thing… there is a Job Journal feature in JibberJobber to do just what you are talking about

Best thing you can do for your career is to keep a running log detailing the specific successes – and failures – and lessons learned. Review this log at the end of the week and identify a few things to improve upon for the next week.

Don’t let a company manage your career.

Respectfully, I can’t let this slide by. (You brought it up!)

>Tomorrow you must vote.

No, the only thing one must do is what one is compelled to do or that which we have voluntarily agreed to do.

>If you don’t vote, you can’t complain about our federal government for the next 4+ years.

Sure, I can. One vote in the Pepuls Republik of Nu Jerzee makes ZERO difference. My one vote would be overwhelmed by the Democratic graveyard vote from Newark and Camden.

Additionally, by not voting, as HALF the population does NOT do, undermines the legitimacy of the gang with fancy dresses, flags, and GUNS, to legitimacy. How does one incur an obligation that one doesn’t voluntarily agree to take on? See libertarians have different view of these “advance auctions of public goods”. The Presidency pays peanuts; yet, these folks are willing to spend BILLIONS to gain the right to tell others what to do. It’s pure naked aggression.

That having been said: You can go amuse yourselves by that quaint process called “voting”. And, tell me how much these fellows represent your opinions and take actions that benefit “the folks” and the world?

There’s a great book for salespeople called “Get Clients Now.” It’s targeted toward those with a product to sell, but it’s interesting to see that many of the same tips listed in this post are mentioned in the book. Yet another reminder that the job search really IS sales!
