Tetrapod animals (those with four limbs) are all thought to be related.
This group includes two main divisions amniotes and non-amniotes. Amniotes produce young in eggs with four distinct layers (one of which is the Amnion) which makes them well-adapted for surviving on land. Frogs and Salamanders are examples of non-amniote tetrapods.
Amniotes are a large group which are divided into groups based on the number of openings in their skulls near the temples. The two surviving groups in today’s animals are synapsid (one pair of openings) which includes all mammals. And diapsids (two openings) which includes all modern reptiles and birds.
The Mesazoic Era (the age of the Dinosaurs) was 250 million years ago (Ma) to 65 Ma.
Dimetrodon was a synapsid that lived about 295 Ma. So it’s not really in the right evolutionary family to be a dinosaur, and it lived long before dinosaurs.
It superficially resembles a large lizard (but in reality it’s a closer relative to mammals than any true dinosaur).
if you made a movie where George Washington defeated the British with tactical nukes while wearing a cowboy out it would still be more accurate than Braveheart
Yeah I’ve had a burger from a place that roughly fit this description, I was really sad when they closed because it was by an extreme margin the best burger I’ve ever had in my life.
Yeah I believe it, the trend didn’t hit my city (Montreal) though, which is lucky. I went to Ottawa (a near city) a couple years back and they have a row of cookie-cutter pubs in their fancy part of town which all served burgers without fries and you had to pay extra for ketchup. I don’t know when I got radicalized, but that definitely paved the way.
I went to Portugal last year and they have this custom of serving crisps(chips, if you’re American) instead of chips (that’s fries if you’re American!) I bloody hated every second of it, the burgers were delicious though
Hey all the best with your job hunt! I noticed few typos you may want to address : in the objective section - “SeptembER” , “waiter AT some moments” Stago experience - “taskED” , “AN understandable tool”
There are some weird phrasing too. Maybe a native speaker can help you out better!
You need a “Page of Expertise” attached to the end of this resume with every technology, tool, and piece of equipment you’ve ever touched. I’m dead serious. You’ve got the standard office apps listed as well as the GIMP (which is awesome, BTW 👍) but have you ever fooled around with Access? Used Outlook? Skype? They need to be in your resume!
Think of the “Page of Expertise” as an addendum that’s just a great big list of keywords that will ensure your resume isn’t filtered out by HR people that don’t know any better. When they get a job description from a hiring manager that says something like, “Marketing Assistant: Must have experience with Excel. Nice-to-have: Experience with Outlook and Skype.” The HR person will post a similar job description (they just love to mess with it!) and then when 10,000 resumes come in they’ll pass them all through a “keyword filter” and any resume that doesn’t have “outlook” and “skype” will never see the light of day!
Always remember this: The hiring manager and the people doing the interview are only going to look at the first page and the first job or two in your work history. They might glance at everything else but it’s unlikely. The universal advice about tailoring your resume for the job you’re applying for is 100% true but the truth is that that advice really only applies to that first page and only after you’ve made it through the HR keyword filters.
So add a second page that has titles like, “Office Tools” that has every stupid little tool that counts as “office software” from Excel to Outlook to Skype to Notepad++ to silly things like Winzip and Winrar. Stuff you’d think literally anyone could figure out in five minutes still goes on that page! Always assume that every job is going to get 10,000 applicants and HR is going to keep whittling them down until they find candidates that have all the keywords they can possibly think of.
Here’s another thing: If you get past HR and in that interview and they ask you, “What’s this Page of Expertise all about?” Be honest: “That’s so I can get past the keyword filters that HR uses. HR people often have to filter thousands of resumes and I don’t want to get skipped because I didn’t put the word, ‘winzip’ somewhere in my resume even though a monkey could figure it out.” They’ll think you’re a genius and hire you! 👍
Thank you so much! That’s a great advice indeed! Although oh boy I’ve used a lot of apps and tools but I never take the time to master them and I never knew how to put that on my CV. In the previous version of my CV I wrote “Interest in Learning New Tools”
Your level of skill with the tools is irrelevant from the perspective of the “Page of Expertise”. You’re not claiming to be a master of these things, “just have some expertise/experience” with them.
So what’s the verdict, are the electric unicycles cool? Have they broken the curse? They do look cool, and you better be wearing the full motorcycle getup if you know what’s good for you, because they’re fast as f too.
There’s a restaurant in Florida called “The Ormond Garage” and they don’t serve fries with the burger. It’s another like $6 for fries that aren’t even that good. I went there once and they didn’t have to go cups for the meal that I called in… The server told me she could get me a regular cup and I could just drink it there while they were putting my $15 burger into a takeout box.
I contemplated walking out with the beer glass they handed me, but I just left.
I live near a place where the fries come with the burger, but sometimes you have to ask for them. The bean counters assume about 50% of the time that you don’t want them. Lunchbox laboratory in Seattle, in case anyone’s wondering. It sold out a long time ago and has been crap since
I pretty much stopped going out for burgers because my area lacks a really good burger. We do have two places that do smash burgers pretty well and it’s a food cart, so it’s affordable, but any proper sit down started charging $20+ for frozen patty style garbage.
