I’m supposed to have another appointment at the Department of Labor tomorrow morning. The person that I’m supposed to meet with told me that she wanted me to redo my resume, and she told me what page of the resume-writing booklet she wanted me to use for the format.
I’m going to put here a copy of what my resume already looks like, without some identifying information:

The second I got here, a couple of the female staff were doing their coughing thing. The supervisor just came in and told another staff member something, ending his conversation with “It’s Sad.”
When I've tried to complain to him about how some of the staff treat me, he's always said "As long as you're looking for work, we're good." When is that going to extend to his staff, and to his instructing his staff to keep their behavior to helping me and others find work, and not to bullying me?

I didn’t even read enough of that resume example. Here’s what the next section of it says:
HUMAN RESOURCES CONSULTANT (1989-1995)
Questwave Computer Technology, City, State
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I took out the other identifying information in the example, which was probably fake anyway but could still cause problems for someone, and then I saw the "Questwave" name on the second company listed in the example.

It's about 7:50 p.m.. As soon as I got on the Internet, there was some gross coughing from a male resident several feet away.
There's a new, female resident as of yesterday. She's got the bottom bed in what was my empty bunk; I've had the top bed in that bunk for a while. She kept knocking the bed while I was in it, both when she was in her bed and when she was out of it. She turned the light on AT 11:00 p.m., when it's supposed to be lights out and was talking nonstop AT another resident until almost 11:30 p.m.. This morning, she asked me one question after another "Where's this? Where's that? Do you know where I can find this, that and that."
This morning, I finally got tired of her treating me like a servant, and I said, "I'm not a morning person, and I need to get going with my day."
As soon as I said that, she started making comments. As soon as I was in a common area, she started saying, loudly "I hope it doesn't RAIN today. At least it looks as if it's not going to RAIN."
Then, when we were back in the women's dorm, she said "I'm going to get a broom and clean up that mess." There wasn't anything on the floor.
Either this woman has a special talent to drag me to her level, or I've really had it with the harassment, because she hasn't stopped making "flooding" comments, etc., since I got back, and I've been saying things back to her. I don't want to do that; it's disgusting.
Here's some of what she provoked me into:
She said "I think maybe we're going to get a rainstorm tonight."
I said "It sounds as if it's starting right now."
She said "I had this shampoo once that made my hair squeaky clean."
I said "That must have been a relief."
Then another male resident behind me starting with the whining, repetitive cough.
I'm going to need remedial manners school after this; I really wish that the President and others who are involved will call it off so that I can escape with my dignity and integrity intact.
