I think just about every SoCal Forumite is going to be emailing you today, John!

Resumes submitted without salary history will be ignored

Interesting, that. No prospective employer here would expect an applicant to divulge that information. I'm thinking the response might be something like "None of your bloody business, buddy! Now do I get the job or not??" I fact, applicants would have every right to be outraged and could report them to the appropriate body.

Employment history certainly... If the prospective employer wants to call the previous employers and ask for that information, he may get it, but I very much doubt it, because of our privacy laws.

My, how things differ between countries!

I'd apply but for a few things, John:

1. They'd never let me stay permanently (epecially if they read some of my posts here!)

2. I'd have to get a green card and I don't like green.

3. It would cost me too much to move all my Rickenbackers and amps over there.

4. You'd probably sack me for falling asleep at my desk (not because the job would be boring - far from it, but I'm getting a bit old and doddery!)

5. I'd probably suffer a heart attack with all the eye candy over there - and the beautiful guitars too!!

Good luck to all who apply............

Howard, previous salary histories to a new possible employer are all part of the 'Patriot Act'

Er.... please explain, Stan?

He was joking.

So, Mr Hall, what's the starting salary?

A new guitar per week?
Sign me up!

A new guitar per month? Please find enclosed my application and resume...I could relocate, my brother lives in Orange County and my sister's the Head of the Women's Studies Department at UC Irvine.

Besides, I have (relatively) recent Customer Service experience. Who boastin' now, mofo's?

I'd have to get a green card and I don't like green.

Don't worry about that one, Howard - they aren't actually green. There's a big green label on the back of it, but the predominant colour is pale beige.

I'd be interested if I was in So. Cal, ...I even have lots of customer service experience...but I'm in the northwest and don't wanna move.

Good luck finding someone Mr. Hall.

Not a fan of beige, either, David..... guess I'm stumped at both ends!

'Ev'ry night an' day...'

Yeah, I don't know how long I'd last in Orange County...they might see through my clever ruse.

It might be fun, though, like Nigel Tufnel working in a Haberdasher's..."No, we're out of those...Do you wear black?"
