Resume Spamming Redux

    Resume spamming got me both of my last two jobs when I needed them, and it gave me something to do while I was calling people about jobs and between interviews/job fairs. It may be sleazy, but at least I can pay my rent.

    Wow. I wouldn't mind having THAT many job offers. It would sure give me a lot of leverage when asking for a raise :)
