Have you lost your job due to Corona Virus? Need a CV?

This is where our community discusses almost anything! While we're mainly a Cambodia expat discussion forum and talk about expat life here, we debate about almost everything. Even if you're a tourist passing through Southeast Asia and want to connect with expatriates living and working in Cambodia, this is the first section of our site that you should check out. Our members start their own discussions or post links to other blogs and/or news articles they find interesting and want to chat about. So join in the fun and start new topics, or feel free to comment on anything our community members have already started! We also have some Khmer members here as well, but English is the main language used on CEO. You're welcome to have a look around, and if you decide you want to participate, you can become a part our international expat community by signing up for a free account.

Have you been waiting for me to post? You sneaky sneaky sneaker.

I view it as someone offering a service via the internet in a thread they've created that harms absolutely no one lol, as nobody is forced to read it or purchase the service, people can moan tho as it's the internet.. which they will (as it's the internet).

Personally I would like to see some sort of kung fu showdown to settle the score once and for all, perhaps with some sort of prize for the winner.

I'm so fed up with being in the UK it hurts... I would love nothing more than to fly to Cambodia tomorrow however I don't fancy risking the 3 grand holding fee, hopefully things calm down by winter, the UK aint for this chap.

You ain’t the only one stuck in the UK. Nor the only one that finds the chops given to Rozzie a little unreasonable.

If I had just started writing during the pandemic, then yes, I could understand the attacks on my business, character and appearance.
However, I have been writing CVs for more than ten years and never get abused for it, until I mention a super special offer for expats stuck in Cambodia.

I've had emails telling me I am old and fat, which luckily have nothing to do with my writing skills.

For everyone who has been rational and sensible about my advert, thank you :)

Why are people upset at this thread or Roz? Weirdos
It boggles my mind, I've actually had hate mail because of this.
I really don't know why.
Hate mail ? That's ridiculous. From posters here ? :whip:
I hadn't read this thread until now, because guess what, I don't need a CV. It's really not that complicated.
If a bar owner offered CEO members 50% off their drinks, would people still complain ?

Could it be because I'm a woman?

If a bar owner offered members of CEO free drinks, someone would complain that the owner wasn’t paying them enough to drink for free!

I feel like I haven’t seen a major complaint-free topic so far, unless the mods lay down the law on a thread and lock it.

Don’t worry, some smart-Alec will now start posting a list of threads that are complaint free (just to create controversy).

Good luck Rozzieoz.
