For LinkedIn my Identity

FOR LINKEDIN my Identity

LinkedIn Profile and CV ©

Michael Casey

We’ve all been on Facebook and LinkedIn, we get to know people and make “friends”. On LinkedIn it’s more about connections and maybe business connections. So we have to rely on the Profile, my LinkedIn profile tells my story, as I am a writer. But how accurate are these Profiles?

I am a born leader.

Means he was the firstborn boy in a family of 11 girls.

I created the supply chain structure.

Means he decided to use a clipboard and notepad instead of just his memory.

I optimised the sales among target audiences.

He chatted up all the girls, he was kind to seniors and went to church.

I was inventive and creative in gaining new sales.

Means he designed a flyer and went street to street delivering them.

I was never afraid of going the extra mile for the business.

Means there was a street gang chasing him after he was at the bank

I am great at communicating the business message.

He just would not shut up, so the boss got him to tidy the fruit outside the ma and pa store.

I always try and improve myself.

Means he has no friends so he reads a lot.

I created the new scheme to optimise the business cash flow.

Means he took the store’s cash and put the money on a horse.

I am now looking for new opportunities to excel

Means he got fired, cops not called as the owner married to his sister

I created a great new idea for centralising purchasing delivery.

Means he was a guard for the money delivery company, crash helmet and visor.

I created my own start-up company

Means he stole the money from the cash delivery company and started his own company.

I am now on a learning sabbatical before resuming my career

Means he is in jail, working in the library.

So when you read those LinkedIn profiles or reading a CV or resume think what do they really mean. Check the photos out too, the reality can be far different. Just like actors, photos can be 10 or 20 years old, and they are. Dig deeper.

Me, I google and check people out, as far as you can on Google. Google me (michaelgcasey) and my sites and think for yourself. I am on a sabbatical myself, no I’m not in a library, thought we have plenty of books in the house, no it’s called arthritis, which comes and goes and makes me scream sometimes. But at least I can sit here and make some of you laugh, as I Google everybody.

Since I wrote this I’ve had the joys of an unplanned quadruple heart bypass.

Published by michaelgcasey

I've updated this 18th March 2022 I'm Michael Casey from Birmingham England, the fat silver haired writer in shades. Beware of Others with the EXACT SAME NAME, they are not me, and would not want to be me ... use Google UK to find me, otherwise Posh Americans pop up I've done loads of writing, about 2,000,000 Words worth over 34years now But before I started to write, I LISTENED to BBC Radio 4 for 20 years, from the age of 10 or younger Frank Brown our lodger, went back to County Tyrone and he gifted us his Bush Radio. He'd be nearly 100 now if he is still alive, so say a prayer for him 54 years in love with words, and I still look so dashing. I have a picture in the attic, just like Dorian Gray I've also had an interest in Politics for 54 years with my dad heckling the tv and Politicians. I almost immediately had a hit, a play called Shoplife was accepted but not finally produced by a Theatre. The Kenneth More Theatre, so thank them for sparing you all. This was back in 1989 yes, 30 years plus ago, the play was written in 1988. So since then I'm more than good enough, as a writer. Anything else..... I also ignore those who just cannot write, pick your own candidate I tend to write Comedy as I'd rather make you laugh than cry I have written over 2000 short pieces of writing, yes 2000 " (c) by Michael Casey" If you include "chats" 3700 samples, all told, the chats do NOT go into my books when I compile them. My first book ,a full length comedy/drama is The Butcher The Baker and The Undertaker You can read translations of it here on this site Up to 20 different languages/translations have been read on the same day via this site, here on Wordpress look fo Translations Galore page, and more And in over 90 Countries world wide too so you have no excuse, find your own language and read The Butcher The Baker and The Undertaker or Quick Stories or any other of the books in Translation on my Wordpress This proves to me that the humour does travel I have readers in over 100 countries now, just to repeat myself From Nepal to American Samoa and all places North South East and West Or its just a hit man on the run, or whatever Unknown Region Means It may also mean that only non English Speakers like my stuff Coverage but lacking penetration as marketing folks might say I did get 21,000 readers in 3 weeks for the Polish version of In Search of an Indian Princess. which is basically the final 3 chapters of The Butcher The Baker and The Undertaker all by word of mouth. And 50,000 plus in Christmas week 2021 If you add up all the downloads from my Wordpress + 13,000 when somebody stole the file. I have had more copies than Boris Johnson's Churchill book distributed. Maybe 40,000 copies . Not made a penny from it, free downloads in multiple languages. Reverse Logic, if the world knows me, eventually somebody will pay me But in reality I'll be dead first, and then just 2 pennies to pay the ferryman is enough I've cut the Plaudits, you can read/decide for yourself As for my life, I was born in the shadow of a Brewery, I was a computer operator for a market research company into alcohol sales, 21 years altogether, StatsMR Call centre guy, like everybody once in their life I was also a Trainee Betting Shop Manager I was a concierge and 10 other roles at Crowne Plaza NEC Birmingham for 3 years. Spent 3 years at Pinsent Masons Law firm in Birmingham I even hid a copy of my comic novel "BBU" in the Law Library at Pinsent Masons, well just for a day.. I did a few other jobs too, working life in reverse so to speak and I was an Esol English teacher in an Islamic school, for a year, I knew I could teach. I got Excellent, Excellent and Exemplary on the external assessment, yes really And I asked them to pray for me at least once a day beside which I've had a Shanghai connection for 20 years now, including 2 bilingual daughters and being a hausfrau a long time too, I'm a great dad, as I've had lots of time with my daughters I can always make somebody talk or laugh I believe my short stories could be used to teach English, just package them up correctly or App them Or a Tale a Day from Michael, a story telling App What else, I was brawn and brains, I used to be as strong as an Ox, now I just smell like one We have a cat called Totoro, my daughters wanted a pet I said they could have a dog if I died , or a cat if I had a heart attack. A few weeks after that in Jan 2015 I had an Unplanned Quadruple Heart Bypass , it was supposed to be a triple but it ended up a Quadruple, 33% extra free so to speak. Now with an add on Hernia, the size of your fist, pushing through my bypass scar, it hurts when I laugh, so don't make me laugh I also have arthritis and other hindrances that hobble my body and give me pain galore. But my mind is free, though having read my stories you may wish I didn't bother But I'll ignore you, and carry on regardless. I do get heckled by my own Tinnitus these past 3 years+, so I have music on all night long to drown it out. I sleep with Miley, Taylor, Eric Clapton and Will Young, maybe I should buy a bigger bed, or just get a better mattress. Tinnitus is a curse, just trust me I know, each day I wake up, Tinnitus SCREAMS at me for a full hour till it calms down That's the end of the tidy version of my life To finish here's the list of my 20 books, so far:- 1.The Butcher The Baker and The Undertaker 2.Shoplife 3.Essays and Plays 4.Blogs 2011 5.300 and Not OUT 6.Shorts 2013 7.More Shorts 2014 8.Quick Stories 9.Still Alive 2015 10.Undiscovered Words 2016 11.Still Smiling 2017 12.Altogether Now 13.New Horizons 14.14 Up 15.15 Down 16.Sweet Sixteen 17. 17 Again 18. 18 New Views 19. The Final Cut of the 19th Hole 20. 2020 Words 21. 21 Door Keys, key to the door 21 on Bingo, hence title, 53,000 words so far I write bullet point stuff mainly now as Tinnitus stops me from getting in the zone to write, story stories. (c) by Michael Casey stuff though my bullet points are better than some "writers" discuss, miaow. That's why I dream of a speed typist, so I could dictate from the sofa https://www.amazon.co.uk/Michael-Casey/e/B00571G0YC to buy ebooks Loads of Korean and Arabic translations downloaded from my Wordpress, 1000s of them Quick Stories in Korean is a big hit. Maybe Kim in North Korea should read my books, instead of wasting his countries resources on what? Just keeping one person in power, him? Instead of joining the real world and opening a string on golf courses. That way we could get rid of Trump too. Into the sunset, as they play golf. Tears for a Butcher will be the sequel to BBU, and it too will be 600pages, however I really need a speed typist to put it down, while I sit and dictate like Barbara Cartland, and hopefully my speed typist would be impressed. we'd marry have half Korean kids, and form a Kpop band with our 4 new kids, with me as manager. And yes this is more for my bucket list, as Tinnitus keeps me awake too much, 6 months of not sleeping till dawn is really killing me Michael Casey aka the fat silver haired writer in shades from Birmingham England https://2.gravatar.com/avatar/efda2dca0de5b9269191b7c8b0102473?s=400&d=mm View more posts

strange but true friday 24 march 2023

woke in the night, i do every 2 hours or so

and I was lying on my phone

the page was Goldsmiths Watches of Switzerland

On a watch

https://www.watches-of-switzerland.co.uk/Longines-Master-Collection-39mm-Mens-Watch-+-Blue-L26284926/p/17351109

and a free gift too

B&O Beosound Speaker

no I'm not making this up

watches I love I got my first for passing the 11plus exam

and music I love too, as you all know

so did my dreams come true, no as I could never afford such things

But if you give me those, I'll pose for you nude, just like the elephant man

then'll we'll have 4 sons Mathew Mark Luke and John

Now

Later I awoke again

and on the phone was

I

Il donatore

(the giver)

an italian book or so I thought till I googled

and no I'm not making it up

it's too good to be made up

I had not clicked on either of these

SO you tell me what is going on

Later when I awoke again

I stumbled over Il Mattino

a newspaper in Naples plus other places

My small daughter was actually there

in 2019 just after her 16th Birthday

she said there were shrines everywhere

Anyway Il Mattino led to a piece about a

Comedian a female one

Pilar Fogliati

I read she played 4 parts in same film or something

she could play 2

if she did Johnny No Friends

Then I googled her

I hate Christmas appeared where she is a Heart doctor

doing something Chinese, pretending to have a boyfriend

I'll find it soon on the tv

I always say i'm a fat George Clooney in my head

and yes

Pilar Fogliati looks a bit like Ammal

So does God, or Chaos Theory prove everything

and will I get an Oscar or Nobel prize for

My Beautiful Mind

odd couple, a pair of comedians

Banging your Head against a brick wall

some say talking to Putin or one of his doubles is like that

We will destroy is all they can say

What about Build, is that in the Russian language

Over in USA Trump still holds sway

did he Pay his hooker or not

and which pile of money paid for it

GOP so corrupt it wants to interrupt a court case

So afraid to Jail him

The FRENCH President was charged

They gave you your statue of Liberty

the BOIL needs to be lanced

But everybody prances about

Florida Govt FINALLY said

Trump should have handed over his sword

The LUST for Power, and all the LIES

I was robbed no you lost

and you lost to Hillary too, on the Popular Vote

Now because of gun toting and Bible carrying folk

GOP is afraid of losing the vote

As I bang my head against the wall, why are they all so NUTS

IF a nameless guy with Trump's rap sheet dated your daughter

what would you do, you'd GOP him

Give 0 up his Pants

go away you'd say

But instead the hard core still want HIM

as if he's some addictive pushover

And on it goes and he folds his clothes

ready for a NDA

Over here Blood is Lost

Ukraine is bleeding

and if Putin was not beat and Trump was back

Just keep it, just keep it , Trump would say

Would Trump give NY, or Florida, or California or Alaska

If Russia invaded there, it does not matter

Would Trump say that

Banging my Head against a brick wall

Trump would allow the Berlin Wall to be built again

How can anybody believe anything he says

He even lied to his own lawyer

And that will bite him on the bum

Read several newspapers and news stations

FOX does not count

So what can we do

We can pray, whatever way you do that

Goodnight and May Your God Go With You

as Dave Allen used to say

In the end Fatima 1917 will Triumph

But Pray more, Try It

Or doesn't Ukrainian Blood matter

So long as you can watch the Super Bowl on TV

Clarity is what you need

And it starts by looking onwards

Past the bowl of popcorn

On the Tv table

well tinnitus is storming again

i barely think

i cannot write new stuff as the noise in my head is so much

there must be a storm crossing UK

as the air pressure change affects me

I'm just kite maybe, blown everyway

so understand TINNITUS is not hot air like a FART

its far far deadlier

I was singing along to the tv earlier

but now the noise is so much I have to leave tv

as i cannot concentrate on it

this is autopilot talking

but I'm going to stop now and take refuge somewhere else

Tinnitus not a gay Roman lover

all hiss that hurts
