The game
Man, got rick rolled and lost the game...
I JUST LOST THE GAME
Be assured, I will remember this pimento64.
Should have made the hog laying down in the last panel for loss
Wouldn't it be the cat?
rick rolled
no "you" though
Damn, it's pretty crazy how far we've come considering how nobody has wanted to work anymore for over a century
It's sort of true, but not in the way they mean it. Most people don't want to work or they would never retire. But we're also mostly willing to work. Even work really difficult and/or dangerous jobs.
The important part is why. I love tinkering with computers and I will probably do so forever. Working for someone isnt a big deal IF people can actually not piss me off for half a day so I can actually get work done.
This always works for 6-12 months until someone decides I need to become more „flexible“ now and everything goes to shit.
Thats why self employment works best for me. I do what I can do best and you stand around at the coffee machine with your buddies (you as in people, not you specifically).
Love the coffee cup, so true

Came to the comments specifically to see if anyone else noticed it. Glad to see it wasn’t just me.
Was I just Rickrolled?
You're lucky if someone sees your CV/resume at all.
I feel like you'll just let me down and desert me.
Literally crying wolf.
Looks like a boar or warthog, to me.
Looks like a werepig.
I thought it was a Hyena
Shoot, you’re right. I didn’t zoom, oopsie poopsie.
What's a cv?
Curriculum vitae
Depending on what country you're in, it's either a resumé, or a supplement to a resumé that summarizes academic achievements for an applicant with a graduate degree.
105
Curriculum vitae. It’s basically a long résumé. The résumé gets your foot in the door with the “best of” highlights that are tailored to the specific job. The the CV is what you bring to the interview; It’s longer and has a more complete work history, instead of just the bits that are relevant to the job you applied for.
So when they ask you “can you explain this gap in your employment for these two years” you can go “yeah, if you look at my CV, you’ll see that I was working/freelance in a tangental industry. But it wasn’t very pertinent to this application, so I left it off of my résumé when I applied.”
And for tailoring your résumé to each job, you just copy/paste the relevant info from your CV to make a one page document.
I don't think this is correct. Assuming you're American then a CV is the same as what you'd call a résumé. Unless a résumé is more like a cover letter (as in the intro paragraph where you summarise what you do and why you want the job)?
I agree about them basically being the same.
In America a resume is basically a slightly shortened CV. But from my experience (as someone who has lived and worked in IT in both the US and the UK) they are nearly identical. They both summarize your work history in almost identical styles. But the resume is preferably limited to 2 pages maximum, while a CV can be longer.
I don't recall ever having both a resume and a CV in the UK and initially applying with a resume and then bringing the longer CV to the interview. It was just a name and length expectation difference that separated them.
I've not ever heard of any company wanting you to bring an extra-long CV with you, though since everything is online now any long-established rules are basically out the window
A 2CV was an awesome Citroên car.
It's what Brits (and maybe others) often call a resume. It's also sometimes slightly longer. than a resume (2+ pages instead of 1).
Lebenslauf
Relatable as fuck
Were you expecting rational behavior from a werepig?
Nah, the posting of financial remuneration, followed by a panel of a ghost town, then the final panel.
My SO works fast food. Corporate never allocates enough hours so they're perpetually understaffed, but the store manager has permission to call people in if needed. So there's a lot of "your scheduled 10-4, but at 3:30 I'm gonna ask if you'll stay to 6, or I'll call you 2 hours before your shift to see if you can come in early".
Its a lose lose, nobody gets the hours they want, manager can't retain workers, people hate being called in or asked to stay late, and the schedule is always shorthanded and mostly a suggestion. Of course nobody wants to work in that shitty mess of cost cutting and begging employees to pick up the slack that the MBAs at corporate have caused.
That's 100% intentional.
Hire less workers to cut costs, and squeeze as much profit as possible from what few workers there are.
Less free time and higher employee turnover also means it's harder to unionize, which is definitely a plus for CEOs.
Maybe they should have given their resume instead of a cv. No one wants to read a cv.
Are they not the same thing?
