[quote="Deacon";p="420104"]Can you explain what you mean in regards to "monies raised through trade"? Does the government own businesses, and the profits from those businesses are piped into the national healthcare institutions, or what?[/quote] Yes, the bulk of the fed...

[quote="wocket";p="419818"] -I was in the gifted program (BRAIN! NERD!)[/quote] I got a lot of that too - enriched program from elementary school onwards. Luckily for me, those popular kids that picked on me were in gifted too, so I didn't get as many of those kinds of comments a...

I was bullied relentlessly through middle school and through the beginning of high school, because I didn't care about the "popular girls". They picked on me because I was too independant for them, because I didn't care what they wanted, and I wouldn't let them intimidate me. I refused to ...

[quote="Mr.Shroom";p="419710"] Do you really want to move to a country that never technically left its monarchial fatherland? [/quote] This is only true on paper. They had to ask their rulers to amend their constitution to give Canada the right to amend its constiution. And you s...

Grolsch maybe? Or Heineken?

Bríghannyn Máire.

Try spelling that as a child.

Always include a cover sheet/letter. It's the best way to introduce yourself and it can definately help gain an advantage over other applicants. Most, if not all, college english courses will cover how to put together a resume and cover letter, but in the event that you haven't taken a course, here...

In our market, 2 pages seems to be the standard. Virtually everyone I know, even people just out of school, have two page resumes. Plus cover letter. Objective, Summary, Education, Experience (generally the last 4 positions you've held), Related Skills, and then usually a hobbies/personal kind of se...

Canada's got a lot of this kind of stuff.

Navigate The Streets, Urban Challenge, City Chase...it's a lot of fun, especially Navigate.
