Hey, people like change :) I talked this over with CrazyDe, it's weird what people want to do. You are right, I don't need a job necessarily, but WANT a job. I would like to have experience in the corporate world and be part of something like Office Space. :p

That's all just bull sh!t everyone writes on their resume. Waste of space IMO. In your cover letter you might want to say why you're taking a step back from Azurik Inc (which through a quick Google, looks like it's making a bit of money for you) :)

You forgot your college GPA.

I haven't graduated yet (May 2005). I plan on adding it when I know it.

You can still put what you have so far. Like 1 semester is going to change your gpa.

Resume with no GPA = employers assume < 3.0 or "C" avg.

One other question, at one point in your career does posting your GPA an irrevelant factor?
