Kevin Summers
Parents’ Basement, Hometown
Objective:
I am a desperate young writer seeking any type of job that might grant me respect, less shame, and talking point at five-year reunion.
Education:
Liberal Arts College
BA: Creative Writing, Minor: Literature
September 2013-May 2016:
- Engaged in a series of fiction workshops and humanities courses that deceived me into thinking extensive reading and writing might lead to any kind of job.
- Discussed deep social injustices amongst progressive white people en route to massive debt and disappointed parents.
- Maintained strict writing schedule leading towards a doomed grad school portfolio and impressive list of psychiatric meds.
Big State Business University
August 2012-May 2013
- Enrolled in list of gen-eds and business courses that promoted handheld electronics, online courses and promise of a 401K.
- Gazed at tenured professors lecture sea of Greek people while remaining foolishly certain that ones’ knowledge outweighs his network.
Work Experience:
Unemployment
June-August 2016:
- Experienced daily existential crises whilst trudging through a long series of demeaning jobs failing to align with any long-term goals.
- Thrown around by collection of staffing groups that couldn’t comprehend any reason for seeking their services or indecision to come up with any five-year plan.
- Binge-watched number of TV shows in childhood basement while fantasizing of leaving for New York until recalling lack of money or prospects.
Temp
September-December 2016:
- Staged as untitled temporary employee on the fourth floor of a nondescript office building for a company which provides services I’m still unsure of.
- Feigned busyness whilst suffering string of anxiety attacks whenever contemplating the idea of this life being permanent.
- Labored over screenplay and essays during lunch breaks that amounted to nothing more than looking like a sociopath who veered too far off the beaten track.
Server
January-March 2017:
- Concluded office buildings and dress pants were the main reasons why I chose to attempt writing and abandoned them to obtain an anti-corporate bar job.
- Grew cocky and convinced that a literary prodigy doesn’t need a silly bar to work at anyway and stormed off mid-shift after declaring I shall be no one’s slave.
