You can not be anything you want to be.

Almost everyone was told growing up that we can be anything we want to be if we just try hard enough. Unfortunately, this is not true.

For instance, let’s look at Michael Jordan the basketball player:

n 5 time MVP

n 10 time All NBA First -Team selection

n Selected as one of the “50 Greatest Players in NBA History”

n Member of 6 NBA Championship teams

n 6 time NBA Finals MVP

Firefox is a sourcers best friend.

So I am updated to Firefox 3.0 and with the exception of signature all of my favorite add-ons have been updated. It is these add-ons that make my life as a sourcer much easier. So below I have listed the addons I use and what they do for me.

Google Toolbar - Besides the search and the Google dog food here are what I believe to be the best reasons to use it. The site search button - you find a site that you want to explore. Instead of typing out site:webaddress.com you just press the… Continue

I survived the Recruiting Animal!

Sure, some say he was nice on me, even though I was SURE he was lurking... just waiting to HAMMER me.

Some say he should have investigated my threat against Shannon Underhill* more deeply.

But everyone agrees it sounded fun.

Wednesday Wisdom: Fool me once, shame on you...

Dear Claudia,

I was shocked, but it gets worse: when I complained to the agency manager about the… Continue

Where is YOUR Resume?

Checking in on my train ride home - this will be another one of my 30 min blog ideas. My 'train' of thought is that if it takes me longer than my train ride home to come up with something to write and get it posted - it must not be what I should be blogging about. That said,…
