You know I'm frustrated with the craziness of the job search that affects so many people. I could probably rant about that for many posts – and I probably will, knowing me.
One thing I note in the insanity of the job search is that among the inevitable laundry lists of skills, many job postings ask for sets of skills that A) most people probably have, B) they could learn if said person is reasonably intelligent, or C) that they have similar skills to anyway so it doesn't matter very much.
