Sending out resumes is like sending out your online dating profile. Everything looks perfect on paper, but in reality, you're just trying to figure out how to use the office coffee machine without looking like you've never seen a spaceship console before. Proficient in Excel actually translates to I can make a mean spreadsheet, as long as you don't ask me to do anything beyond SUM and AVERAGE.

Job interviews are like Hollywood auditions. You walk in with confidence, ready to play the role of Perfect Employee.

Companies love to talk about their casual dress code, but what they really mean is business casual with a hint of desperation.

References are like your personal cheerleaders, but also secret agents. You list them on your resume hoping they'll sing your praises, but deep down, you know they're out there giving you the undercover evaluation. Yeah, they're great with spreadsheets, but they once accidentally printed the entire company's confidential info on the office printer. Twice.

I tried freelancing once. It's like having a boss, but instead of a person, it's a constant sense of impending doom. The only performance reviews you get are from your cat, who gives you a disdainful look every time you're not typing fast enough. Step it up, human, or I'll find someone else to feed me.
