  1. I

     

    I don't know who this God is Your talking about,it isn't the God I'm acquainted with.I don't know what religions say about this,but in my view God doesn't predestine evil actions.What a distorted view you have of God.

    I'm not surprised you don't believe in him.I wouldn't want to believe in a God like the one you envisage he could be.

     

    So what is and isn't this God responsible for, because all I ever hear is that HE is responsible for the good bits, until they go wrong, at which point HE wasn't responsible for them...


  2. I tend to keep the CV the same, unless I'm applying for something completely different, which I don't do very often, and just write a personalised cover letter each time.

     

    I may write a CV tomorrow and send it to myself, hmmm, would I hire misen?


  3. ...

    You might need to basically write a new CV for every position.

     

    I always used to. After Uni at first I did about 200 CV's a week and each one had a slightly tailored cover letter and then they got one of a variety of actual CV's. Some Architectural firms specialise in certain sectors, just as all restaurants aren't as good as Burger King or the Ritz.


  4. Is there any comprehensive lists anywhere which lists all these effective buzz words.

     

    I used to buy a series of pocket books when I was younger, The Bluffers Guide To... Business, they had lists of trade words, but that t'was day when used do a bit of slap and tickle for me grind ;)


  5. No recruiter has the time to play Sherlock Holmes to figure out a candidate’s background. Jobseekers must be aware that recruiters receive literally hundreds of resumes a day and spend only about 10 seconds “skimming” through each resume.

    By writing in the first person you will remove any doubt about who it's on about.

     

     

    Also from that it made think of writing things for search engine optimisation, i.e. remove any superfluous, erroneous or non salient intel, so don't use words anyone might need a spell checker or dictionary for ;)

     

    Ciao, Bella


  6. ...( I wouldn't make it look as though it had been written by someone else!)

     

    This is also what I thought on this, also I seem to remember being told that it didn't matter that I used I numerous times since it is you on about you, so i'd guess in the first person is right.


  7. I shall vote for whichever candidate is best for keeping the cons out.

     

    We cannot allow the NHS to be given to Camerons cronies and run privately. They would use our NHS as a tool to control us all. We must stop the cons at all cost. We must remember that Cameron had to pay a lot of money back in the expenses scandal to avoid prosecution. He is their LEADER...he is what they stand for.

     

     

    SAVE OUR NHS......vote the tories out!

     

    Didn't Labour start selling off the NHS to the French and Spanish a number of years ago, strange how some people have only just started moaning about it.

     

    2002

    Having closed 13,000 NHS beds and services since 1997, Labour is now moving rapidly, under the direction of Health Secretary Alan Milburn, to privatise NHS care provision, contracting for services in the independent foreign and domestic markets. The first tranche of hand-picked NHS patients has gone to France for cataract and joint surgery and in the south-east the government is contracting with a small private hospital for 5,000 operations.

    Pot calling kettle black eh?


  8. I understand most of that - but what was the bit about 'brings a tear to my eye'? - That I did not understand.

     

    This may sound simplistic (perhaps it's a bit better?)

     

    Racism is - to me - a debilitating disease.

     

    If I was the boss of something and I did the hiring and 'racism' figured then were I to allow 'Prejudice' (Race. colour. creed. height. gender or anything else ) to colour my selection, then (statistically - if I hired enough of them - I would damage my chances of hiring the best people. (I can do the maths!)

     

    My Pakisatani friends are just that. Friends. Some live in Pakistan, some live elsewhere.

     

    Many of the Pakistani immigrants who came to the UK were not (perhaps) the sharpest tools in the box, but they were the tools who were chosen. They were the people the British asked for and they were the people they got. If the British government failed to mould the clay, it's the potter's fault - not the fault of the wheel.-

     

    Have you not seen the pictures of that girl who recently committed suicide because her disfiguration was so so severe after having acid thrown at her by her husband? She been in hospital something like 12 times to have reconstructive surgery, but she was still very very bad.

     

    This is nothing to do with racism, why would you twist it so? This story was on late night News24 all last night, it was truly disturbing!


  9. ...

    The sort of people who would consider mutilating non-compliant female family members are not 'ordinary' Pakistanis - they are primitives and their behaviour would not be tolerated in middle-class Pakistani society.

     

    The people who behave like this are the dregs of Pakistani Society ...

     

     

    ...

    You'd be hard pushed to find any people of any origin who aren't disgusted about this, but that in itself won't change things.

     

    It may be a peaceful religious country, but it isn't the country who committed these offenses. It is individuals, just as every country has criminals.

    ...

     

    You are both absolutely correct, non of the Pakistanis I know would dream or condone anything like this. And it's exactly these people who can start to push for more regulation and openness, whether that is through their social networks or political.

     

    In my experience Pakistanis are very proud and really care about reputation, so a few influential words could really start a ball rolling.

     

     

    Just the thought of that image is bringing a tear to my eye...


  10. I decided to watch the video. It described a woman who committed suicide last week - her burns were absolutely unbelievable :shakes:. I suspect that's why this story has made press now.

    ...

     

    mmm, that's on News24, for some reason I kept turning to look at that point, horrific!


  11. In many societies, when it comes to law, money talks. I'm led to believe that it's no different there.

     

     

    I'm not sure how ever highly educated you are, that you can influence another society's law. You can certainly campaign for change, which many do, regardless of their own nationality or origins.

     

    I don't think Pakistan takes a blind bit of notice at what others say to them, hence why this is a plea to Pakistani nationals and their relations.

     

    Surely such a devoutly peaceful religious country can change things like this themselves.
