Gosh, I thought ham radio was supposed to be such an added bonus to the
"resume." I don't see a word of it mentioned.

Huh???? Why would an avocation like amateur radio be mentioned when
running for public office?

I can imagine that such a mention would make sense if he was a candidate for
a job as an engineer or technician at an electronics or communications
oriented business, but as a governor?????? Did K7UGA campaign literature
mention that he was a ham when he was the Republican candidate for President
of the US?

Hey, I find it interesting that none of those who've touted the "skills" of
ham radio as applicable to goals in life, are even responding to this. I
was "echoing" their belief system.

Naw Kim, you were just trolling, and not very expertly. Nobody even
bothered to light off the Troll-O-Meter to take a reading.

You *really* expect she'll know who K7UGA was?


It's easy enough looked up, DICK. By the way, I'd imagine you know all

Kim:

Don't look now, but being an Amateur Radio Operator falls into the
category of "hobbies and interests," which, as anyone with any current
business savvy at all knows, would not necessarily be included in a
resume unless this particular activity was in some way directly
related to the position being sought. Jim (that's MISTER Weir to you)
is running for Governor of the State of California; he's not applying for
a job as a salesman at the Ham Radio Outlet.

All you've done, as usual, is make yourself look foolish in an attempt to
do the same to others.

Jim Weir October 10th 03 11:03 PM

Yes, that would have bought a half-decent ham shack. Or a fairly nice used
automobile. New paint for the house. But after a year, five, or ten, what was
purchased would be old and shabby.

In ten years, I'll still be able to say that I fought the good fight, got some
people to hear what I was saying, and 2100 residents of California thought
enough of me and my words to elect me Governor. That will never go away or get
dingy.

I came in 30th behind the Governor-elect. That's in the top quartile of those
who ran. And 35 million ahead of those who didn't.

Next month I can work a few more hours and buy that ham shack, car, or paint.
But I'll never again in my lifetime get a chance at running for Governor.

Bless you all for your kind thoughts...

Jim
