I can't leave those blips off my resume because the jobs I'm seeking are state jobs. Their application system asks you to list ALL employer and attaching your resume is an option. You can't send in your resume as an introduction first like with large corporations.
I've been working for a large internation corp the last 18 months as a contract employee to an even larger international corp and hate it. No one wants to follow procedures becuase they feel they don't apply to them and when I need a question answered from the home office of my employer, no can even tell me who to ask the question of. It took a month to get someone to talk to someone else to resolve an IT issue that was the result of a third person at another location assuming that since our contract at that location was ending, no one needed those accesses anymore (five sites needed those accesses). AAUUGGHHH!!!! All to frustrating.
I figure if I'm going to have to deal with the frustrations of a large company, I'd rather it be just the one company I work for and have a great retirement benefit (and our state has a great one) plus extra holidays as a reason to put up with the nonsense.
