CERTIFICATES AND ACHIEVEMENTS

I've always tried to be humble and viewed plaques, certificates and trophies as vanity items that simply fed my already bloated ego ;-); however I really need a job right now so I've started 2012 from scratch and am now obsessed with collecting all of the above and being the absolute best at anything I do.

ACT: On March 26th, 2012 I took the ACT Test provided by the unemployment office and have the HIGHEST SCORE IN BEAUFORT COUNTY (5th Highest Score in the STATE) and again made a PERFECT SCORE ON THE MATH PORTION.

GED: On March 17th, 2012 I obtained my GED. I graduated Valedictorian and the top 5% of the state. I also made a PERFECT SCORE ON THE MATH PORTION. Below is a video of me graduating (Forty Seconds into the video)

CDL: On July 9th, 2012 I took the CDL (Commercial Drivers License) written test. I personally studied and paid for this test just to add to my resume of skills and accomplishments. I now have a class B CDL Permit and only need to barrow a truck large enough to take the CDL Road test to make it an official license.

Physical and Drug Screening: On September 27th I took a physical and drug screening to make myself a more viable and ready candidate for employment. This was paid for by me and the test was Administered at Doctors Care in Beaufort, SC By Dr Will O'Quinn (License #31283SC) and Phone Number 843-770-0676.

In October 2012 the Alfred Hitchcock Mystery Magazine cited me with an honorable mention for their  short story contest. I normally write professional documents and technical journals; And I don't really even read mystery novels but the contest caught my eye. So I submitted my entry just to see how my creative writing skills lined up with the rest of the country.
