Operation Resume Storm

Named after 1991's Operation Desert Storm, the invasion of Iraq during the First Gulf War. Refers to a job seeker's decision, especially during a recession year, to print off and mail out dozens or hundreds of resumes in hopes that some employer will offer him an interview. Usually unsuccessful.

Graduation's only a few months away and if I don't get a job I'll have to move back home. It's about time to mount Operation Resume Storm!
