Humor

(Is there room for humor on a resumé?)

I have used my empowerment to create a new paradigm, and I teamed across functional boundaries to improve quality. I dare say I was focused and market driven! I proactively found excellence in the midst of chaos! I re-engineered my core processes and embraced change! I give you - Bryan Cass - the perfect employee!
