Hmm. I am amazed at a lot of the comments on this article. It mostly sounds about right to me, based on my experience both writing and reviewing resumes. I do tend to write resumes with the supposition that I am going to aim it towards the kind of person I want to hire me -- in other words, if I do anything deviating from the straight and narrow format-, content-, or tone-wise, it should function to irritate those who I don't want to work for and should ingratiate me with those whom I do want to work for.

Thanks Rands, though I'd be surprised if you're reading this!
