Meh- EDs right, (AS USUAL I HATE ED) Ex is right too as far as people likin people like themselves- the way i look at poker right now is that it isnt as shameful as it mightve been at one time...I mean every law firm i know of (I gottalot of budys that work at firms now obviously) has at LEAST one home poker game most of em more-- and the mizors that win in those are respected in general...Lots of people play poker nowadays, and really want to be good at it, and not that too many are, especially people that work legit 'jobs' cuz they dont have the time to dedicate to it that us professional testicles have...so i thiink alot of times, pokers not gonna work against you, because people respect it alot more nowadays... So in terms of catering resumes towards people and/or people likin peopl like themselves, i think pokers not as bad as you might think...

Also, there is alot to be said for workin somewhere thats tite/where the your coworkers are tite and understand you and all that shit. It sounds a little corny but works gay, ad your gonna be there at LEAST 40 hours outta yourweek if not more-- and if your inna spot where theres alot of opportunities open to you, you really oughta select the job where people know who/what you are more or less-- and if your a big poker player you mights well tellem so--your ognna be there awhile most likely so why not tellem outright?

Theres always jobs out there if your college educated, arent totally socially inept, and look marginally tite inna suit (and if you dont look tite inna suit just join a gym and do some shoulders and some chest..)

Point bein, when your lookin for a job thats gonna be long term, you want to work with people that are at least sorta cool and that you relate to a lil bit since your gonna be there so often for so long-- you wanna look for a good 'fit' i guess is what im sayin.. and if your not an ex con and your not stupid theres no reason to lie, cuz in employment as in life, youll be alot better off in the end if ya just tell the truth rather than bullshit, especially if the truth really isnt that bad..

My 4 cents..
