Mission: Day One

For the next two weeks I will be house sitting my fathers home in Mission while he makes a triumphant return to England for the first time in years. This house not only has 2 dogs and 6 cats, but 32 llama’s that I will be tending to in this time frame. I’ve decided to document my days there for the next two weeks simply for a lack of better things to do with my time, and to give me something to look back on fondly in the future.

Day one:

My dad will be leaving the next day, I took the train directly from work to the Mission station. The train ride takes just over an hour and I ran into a good friend from my AI/working at EA days. It was fun catching up and we’ll try to sit together in future trips. He also mentioned his company may be hiring for QA(Quality Assurance) Testers in the near future, I’ve decided to pass him my resume and try getting back into the industry/field I went to school for.

I met my dad at the train station and drove his truck (I am officially back in Maple Ridge/Mission) to the house. Once there, I was given a review of the layout of the house and the tasks I will be tending to while there. The highlights were what I should do in the case of a BEAR ATTACK (which has happened more than once in the past) or if the pregnant llama has a BABY.

Needless to say, I want to hold a baby llama by the end of these two weeks.

A female is seen giving technical advice to a male who is attempting to decide which of two smart phones, the Apple iPhone or the Motorola Droid, to purchase. After the female finishes describing the high-level differences between the two devices, the male questions the very nature of his predicament. He wonders if and how he can rid his life of consumerism and the constant desire for the latest gadget, allowing more of his time to be spent on productive endeavors.
The male then pauses, and delivers a humorous cliche in the form of a modification on the now famous Apple advertisement line, “There’s an app or that.”
In a surprise twist, the knowledgeable and confident female character then states that both smart phones do, in fact, “have an app for that.” This is funny because that kind of application could not actually exist.
Then, in an even more comical twist, the female corrects her previous statement by revealing that the iPhone version of the app has been rejected. Based on this new information, the male decides to purchase the more geek-friendly Droid - despite his earlier wishes to live free from electronic devices.
This last scene is humorous because of the widely held belief that Apple frequently rejects applications during their approval process, a belief popularized by bloggers whose applications were rejected by Apple.

If I had a lawn. I would put this in it.

I totally made a series of resume’s exactly like this when I came out of AI looking for a job. Except I didn’t get a job. And if funky watermarks were all that stopped me I’ll be pissed.

Best! Resume! Ever!
