How can it be so difficult?

This is proving to be a really tough thing to do....

I haven't done it for many, many years...

It is less enjoyable than having a tooth pulled...

It involves saying how great I am, which I find hard despite calling myself "legendary". Those of you who really know me will know that I don't really enjoy talking about how wonderful I am.

You see, for the first time in 18 years I have been asked for a CV!

Holy crap.

What? Don't they read your blog? Don't they follow your witty writings, daring adventures?
Haven't they heard about the Amazing Rock Chef?

To me, it's just like updating my resume. Kinda hard to talk about all you've done in only a few pages of print. But it helps when going for a new job or new assignment.

Good luck.

agg79 - Do you think I should include a link to my blog, then?

agg79 said...

No. Some people may not appreciate your wit and insight. Unless that is what you want to show them.

Any hints as to what the CV is for?

Rock Chef said...

agg79 - it is related to a research proposal by one of our Professors. No I'm not planning on a change of job.

CV? Wow, I must agree to agg79 :)Know the person to love him / her / it.

I didn't need to put up a CV for my teaching job. The interviewer said (a long time ago) that my face was 'radiating' teaching aura by the megawatts. HA HA HA HA!!

I believed him.

Rock Chef said...

Shadowthorne - I believe him too!

Hubby says you can do this task blindfolded. You are better than you realize. So spill it, let it all out. Blow their minds.

I'm going to admit it. I didn't know what a CV was. I had to look it up. And then I realized why you were so nervous about it. I would find it intimidating to write such a thing. I hope that you find once you get started, that it's easier than you thought it would be.
