Take This Job and Love It (10 of 17)

1 Peter 2:18-21
This month I'll have served as pastor for 5 ½ yrs. In this time, there's not been a month we haven't been looking for staff. I have to tell you, I'm sick of looking at resumes. I don't mind the interviewing process, I despise pouring over resumes. Trying to pick a paper champion based on what's on paper can be quite cryptic. Let me tell you, after looking at 1000's of resumes, I don't know if I can handle another typo. Recently I came across an e-mail of humorous mistakes people have made on resumes:
- I served as an assistant store manager - SORE
- I went to school on a full scholarship - FOOL
- I was involved in running the Midwest div. - RUINING the Midwest div.
- Question on a Federal job application: Do you favor the overthrow of the U.S. gov. by force, subversion or violence? Apparently this person thought it was a multiple choice b/c they wrote: Violence
So the next time you find yourself looking for a job, take the time to make sure there are no typos on your resume. And once you get a job - be your best. You don't want to give your supervisor an excuse to be critical of you. Here are some actual employee evaluations:
- This employee works well under constant supervision and when cornered like a rat in a trap
- This employee is depriving a village somewhere of an idiot
- This man slipped into the gene pool when the lifeguard wasn't watching
-This woman brings great of joy to the team - when she leaves the room
- While most of our employees drank from the fountain of knowledge - this man only gargled
- Gates down; lights flashing; not a train in sight
We're continuing our study in 1st Peter entitled GLOW. When something glows it emits a steady radiance of light. Thru Peter we learn Christians are called to GLOW by emitting the radiance of Christ in us to the world around us. One specific place we're called to glow is in our place of work whether that ...
