IDK

Do you ever feel like you're going through life and it's just one giant ball of lies? Do you ever lose the desire to make yourself get out of bed? Like you feel there's no purpose for your living that day and the world would go on as if nothing were different with or without you? You wake up each day, stroll around in public and feel like you're Peter Gibbons from Office Space; you've been hypnotized and there's nothing that exists that you care about? Do you feel like you're spinning your wheels and going nowhere at all. Do you feel like you've crashed in a ditch and there's no one around to give you a tow? My spirit is broken and no one seems to notice...

To Whom It May Concern:

Dear Chesapeake Energy,

I would like to express to you my returning heartbreak in being turned down by your company once more. This would be my fourth, YES FOURTH attempt to work at your wonderful company...once again you've broken my spirit. Since you said: "while your credentials are impressive, we are continuing our search," that I would keep up with my blog and continue to gain attention via cyberspace that I DO know how to use Social Media with something small from a peon like me. Yes, I know blogging is only a small source of social media, but it's also something I've only been doing since 2004, back when blogging wasn't quite the phenomenon that it is today. Yes I also have been "tweeting" well over a year before that phenomenon kicked in (with Hollywood) as well. I'm still in the process of getting a podcast up and going therefore I do seem to be behind on that technology phenomenon. You also can find me on Facebook, Tumblr, LinkedIn and yes I even have a Photobucket account.

I'm writing to you to ask what does it take to get hired within your company? I've told MILLIONS of people that working for you would make one of my tiny dreams come true, yet you keep crushing them before they can even become a glimmer in my eye.
I have what in my opinion is a well qualifying resume to work for your company, and I have friends that work there. Yes, they have tried to get me hired, yet they don't seem to be "high up" enough to get me the job.
PLEASE PLEASE provide me with information as to what one needs to do to get the attention to get hired within your company. I have a Bachelor's in Journalism - Public Relations, I don't care what position you have available that you think may be below me, I will work in a mail room, or even be someone's assistant, I just would REALLY REALLY like to work for you, Chesapeake Energy.

DESPERATELY seeking employment,

R
