  24. thanks guys i too was one the recieving end of reading resumes anything more than 2 pages went into file 13 (the garbage can) and only galancd at pertinant info relavant to our field. as for the job i say its temp maybe even permanant as the pay starts at 50.00 a week less salary than what i get from my current employer (when i was workig and nnot on medical leave) and can go to 300.00 a week more than what i make. now i expect to start at the bottom but if i can make more before my doctor relases me then i will submit my resignation to my current employer (one im on medical leave with) and stick with the new job as i am loyal to whoever i am working for when trated right and 1000. a week is a very good start:fingers-crossed-emo
