[QUOTE="John Roberts, post: 88335, member: 126"] Re: Getting my employer to take me seriously... Do you mean asking for a "reference"? A resume or CV is something that you would write. You asking your current employer for a reference is a little unusual, as that is usually used by other employers to help evaluate you as a possible hire. You can ask her what kind of reference she would give you, while that is a loaded question telegraphing your intentions. Some employers may consider it disloyal if they find out you are shopping other employment. If they consider you replaceable, they may push you out the door sooner than you want on their terms instead of yours. I can't guess from a distance what your particular dynamic is with your employer. JR [/QUOTE]
