Randy Wooden from The Wooden Group joined us today to talk about resume writing. According to Randy, these are the 3 most important components of your resume:
1-Key Words - More and more, companies are using software to scan through resumes, looking for key words that match the posted job description for the position being filled. Make sure your resume includes these words in the "Career Objectives" section of your resume.
2-Accomplishments - You must seperate yourself from other people with similar qualifications applying for the same postition . Do this by listing your accomplishments at past jobs, quantifying whenever possible (ie- I increased sales in my department by 20%)
3-Overall Appearance - As with everything, first impressions are so important. Make sure your resume is visually appealing, laid out well and makes good use of "white space".
For more infomation about the services offered at the Wooden Group or about their free Thursday seminars, you can call Randy at 793-8040 or visit the website: http://www.woodengroup.com/

As Heard on Your Family Friendly Morning Show 9/28- How Much do You Know About Religion?/Chatting with Josh Wilson
Are You Smarter Than an Atheist? :)
According to a recent Pew Research study, "Atheists and agnostics, Jews and Mormons are among the highest-scoring groups on a new survey of religious knowledge, outperforming evangelical Protestants, mainline Protestants and Catholics on questions about the core teachings, history and leading figures of major world religions.
On average, Americans correctly answer 16 of the 32 religious knowledge questions on the survey by the Pew Research Center’s Forum on Religion & Public Life. Atheists and agnostics average 20.9 correct answers. Jews and Mormons do about as well, averaging 20.5 and 20.3 correct answers, respectively. Protestants as a whole average 16 correct answers; Catholics as a whole, 14.7. Atheists and agnostics, Jews and Mormons perform better than other groups on the survey even after controlling for differing levels of education."

As Heard on Your Family Friendly Morning Show 9/27- Saving Money at the Fair/ Getting in Shape Before the Holidays
The Dixie Classic Fair begins this Friday and runs through Sunday, October 9. Here are some ways to save BIG money and have a great time at the fair with your family.
Fall is here! The good news is that the weather is more conducive to outdoor workouts, however the days are getting shorter which means you have less time to get out the door and work out. The other concern is that Halloween candy, Thanksgiving feasts and Christmas Cookies are right around the corner. How can you prevent gaining weight from the oncoming onslaught of calories?
-Get on a fitness schedule..put it on your calendar.
-Watch your calorie intake very carefully. Try the perfect 3-day meal plan offered by Fitness-One. Text "FITNESSONE" to 313131 to recieve a free copy.
-Try the next 21-day bootcamp at Fitness One. For more information, email Allen at trainer@myfitnessone.com
- Advance Tickets: Today through Thursday, you can purchase admission tickets and ride tickets in advance and save money. Advance tickets are available to buy on-line, at the Joel Coliseum box office or at a variety of places around the triad, including all area Lowes Foods Stores.
- All-You-Can-Ride Days: Get Your Coupon at a participating Wendy’s and pay admission and $20.00 ($25.00 without coupon) to ride all the rides! Dates: Friday, Oct. 1st, Monday, Oct. 4th, Tuesday, Oct. 5th and Thursday, Oct. 7th
- Early Bird Special: (Any gate) Weekdays only from 11:00 am – 1:00 pm. $3 per person (Regular admission is $8 ages 12+ and $4 for kids 6-11)
- Monday, October 4th: Forsyth Tech And School Day (Preschool – 5th Grade)-
Preschool – 5th grade students free until 2:00; 1 chaperone per 6 students also admitted free. All Forsyth Tech students, faculty and staff admitted free with their Forsyth Tech college ID
- Tuesday, October 5th: Senior Adult Day-
Senior Adults 65 years and over admitted free with proper ID. Aides assisting seniors this day are also admitted free. Special Fun Time & Special Events for Senior Adults beginning at 10:00 am. **Senior Adults 65 years and over are admitted free all week with proper ID.
- Wednesday, October 6th: Lowes Foods Day-
Bring 5 cans or non-perishable boxes of food of Lowes Foods house brand and receive free admission. Sponsored by Lowes Foods and Crisis Control Ministry. ADMISSION INTO THE FAIR ALSO INCLUDES YOUR ENTRY INTO THE CONCERT WEDNESDAY EVENING WITH ADDISON ROAD, MATT MAHER AND TENTH AVENUE NORTH!
- Wednesday, October 6th: Special Education Day-Free admission for persons with disabilities and their aides.
- Saturday October 9th, Sunday October 10th: Winston-Salem Journal Family Fun Day Discounted rides for kids 7 and under! Sponsored by Winston-Salem Journal. Kids 7 and under can ride all Strates Shows Kiddieland rides for $8.00 (excluding pony rides), from opening until 5:00 pm.
- Talk about how much you are willing to spend ahead of time. Let your kids know how much money you have budgeted for the fair and what that means as far as how many rides/games/food items you'll be able to buy.
- Give each child their own money to spend however they want to and once it's gone, it's gone. This also gives a great lesson in budgeting. If a child chooses to spend lots of money on a game or junk food and then doesn't have any money left to ride their favorite ride, they've learned an important principle in money management.
- Eat before you go and plan on sharing the things you buy there. If you plan to eat dinner at the fair and enjoy extra goodies like elephant ears, ice cream and other deep-fried delecacies, you will spend A LOT of cash. So,we usually stop at McDonalds on the way to the fair (a treat in iteslf) and hit the dollar menu. Then, we get some fun food while we are at the fair, but we share it. That way we all get to taste the treats we love without going broke!_____________________________________________________________

More "Rappin for Mac" Entries
We learned last week that WBFJ listeners are a creative bunch (not that there was ever a doubt in our minds). We asked you to write a rap about winter or about your plans for "Tonight" for your chance to win passes to Winter Wonderslam with Toby Mac & Skillet. We were able to send several winners to the show, but there were several more of you that sent in raps and we thought these rhymes deserved their moment in the spotlight as well!
Mia's Winter
a carolina winter's a blessing and a curse
we be wishing for snow but what we get is something worse.
it's a curious thing they like to call a wintry mix
but it's just sleet and ice with snow that never sticks.
our feet are cold, so we be jumping up and down
but no need for boots cuz ain't a flake on the ground.
when we do get snow we know the weekend's come
the kids get ready for half a week of fun.
if you wanna venture out, you had better think twice.
just chill for a while, heed the weather man's advice.
Markie Mark's Winter Rap
Alright… Alright…
Yo Vern! Drop me a beat!
(mmmm.. mmmm…)
Here we go … Here we go …
Woke up this morning with a chill in the air –
My son running around with some wild hair!
My daughter in the kitchen with a bowl full of cereal –
The Lord has truly blessed me, that’s 4-REAL!
My wife is getting ready, the kids go to pre-school –
I’m looking out the window, missing days at the pool!
Head to the car and drop the top back –
Click – WBFJ, Hey it’s Toby Mac!
Praise be to God for he has blessed me –
And to all who are listening, Jesus Christ is the key!
Praise be to God, Jesus Christ is the key!
Yes – Yes – Jesus Christ saved me!
It's Winter Time
by James
It’s winter time, It’s winter time
Turn off the A/C turn on the heat again
Shut out the cold, nice and warm within,
Getting out the fleece so good against the skin,
It’s winter time, it’s winter time,
The Santa Man will soon be on his way,
Eight reindeer and gifts on his sleigh,
Singing jingle Bells all the way,
long is the night, short is the day,
It’s winter time, it’s winter time,
People so nice, yippee yo ki-a
we wish you a merry Christmas
And Jesus is the Way.
Tina's Rap about Tonight
Going to pick the boys up after school
Hit the homework, it’s the rule
Making dinner for the man
I think we’re having chicken again!
Kathy's Rap
Hey you have you heard about Toby?
I heard that his show be
Lifting up Jesus, Lifting up God
Forget your worries, Just PRAISE the Lord!!!
Thanks to WBFJ,
We’ll be Jammin the night away
Kelly's Quilting Rap
I'm going down to Mo'ville
Going to see a pal
She wants to learn to make a quilt
I'm going to show her how
We got our scraps of fabric
In our machines we've got thread
We're going to make a blanket
To keep us warm in bed
Women working with their hands
Like Proverbs 31
Always giving glory
To the Father and His Son
Tabby's Rappin Crew
Winter is freezing
and we're not teasing.
When what's cold is your nose,
and you can't feel your toes.
There might be snow on the ground,
or it might be all around.
Don't let it make you frown,
Cause Toby's coming to town.
So at Winter Slam
We're really gonna jam!
Maggie-Mac's Winter Jam
You know I love it when it's WIN-tur!
Snows fallin' all pristine and Qui-et,
Watchin' the kids out in the yard's a Ri-ot,
They sleddin' down the driveway with their old to-boggans,
Climb to the top and then crash at the bottom,
I hear 'em laughin' brings a smile to my face,
Think back when I was younger and was in their place,
We liked to rock our beanies and our bright leg warmers,
Now I'm left inside I'm the official informer,
Schools out are you ready or not?
The kids are goin' crazy and the cocoa's hot!
It's quiet outside but in the house it's jumpin,
Turn up the music and the bass is bumpin,
Over in the corner sit and sip my tea,
I'm over here chillin' by the Nativity,
Set my mama gave me back when I was little,
Sippin' tea, head bangin, compin peanut brittle,
You see, I love it when it's WIN-tur!
You got evergreens, and packages, and spiral hams,
Santa Claus, Silent Night, and awesome jams,
But the reason for the season don't let Him be a stranger,
I'm talkin' bout my savior brought to me in a manger,
A scared kid sleepin in the hay,
Her baby just sleeps and her husband prays,
That they'll make it out alive and how could he know,
That the baby in his arms would make it so,
So yeah I like the cocoa...IT'S HOT IT'S HOT!!!
And yeah I like the snow...IT'S NOT IT'S NOT!!!
I love when school is cancelled...WOO-HOO WOO-HOO!!!
And trying to wait up for Santa...IT'S A HOOT A HOOT!!!
But the best thing 'bout the season-
It's the rhyme and it's the reason-
It's the reason that we have it-
And it's becomin' quite the habit-
It's the quiet it's the loud,
It's alone and it's the crowd,
IT'S CHRIST SENT AS A BABY AND YES AND ALL THE MUSIC BABY!
Rockin' Christmas...rockin' winter...come on you know IT'S A WINNER!!!!!
word!
I'm done! I'm out! Ho, ho...ho!
