I spent 30 years as an IT headhunter and never saw a job order that didn't include "Good written and oral communication".
Now, I do resume writing/career coaching and pay very close attention to sentence structure, proper wording, etc. I also create a marketing document from a job hunters chronological record of their employment history. I probably review 3 resumes per week and find very few that I would send out. I recently butchered and reworked a business proposal for a medium sized company. The CEO was smart enough to realize that, in his words, he was a much better BS slinger than written communicator.
Muleshoe Texas didn't have any stumps to jump over. We didn't even have trees. I guess I could have jumped over a cotton stalk or a calf.
It's not about the fish. It's about the pond. Take care of the pond and the fish will be fine. PB subscriber since before it was in color.
Without a sense of urgency, Nothing ever gets done.
Boy, if I say "sic em", you'd better look for something to bite. Sam Shelley Rancher and Farmer Muleshoe Texas 1892-1985 RIP Grandpa
