Even though he doesn't seem suited for too many jobs, Briar Starr will probably get a full-time gig soon.
He was selected to have his resume posted on a NASCAR race car, driven by driver Chris Buescher as part of a promotion for a beer that apparently appeals to stock car fans (I wrote about the promotion in July).
Unemployment is at a low but Briar's career as a scoreboard operator and recent college graduate with a dream to some day be a writer or broadcaster covering auto racing just hasn't connected yet.
His resume will be displayed during a NASCAR race on Sunday.
If Starr doesn't get a gig in journalism, he says he's open to the dark side -- public relations -- for a race driver. That might explain why his resume was chosen.
