D-OHHHHH! Here's Homer Simpson's Resume!

March 02, 2010 (1:08PM) by Rick Saia, CPRW

DonutHe’s never met a donut he didn’t like, and some of us have never seen an episode of The Simpsons that we didn’t like either. So, I put together a resume for Homer Simpson, that lovable cartoon buffoon who’s been known to snooze away the hours on the job at the nuclear power plant and find his way in and out of a few jams in other short-lived jobs.

The information in this 100% fake resume comes from several sources: plot summaries from the web, suggestions from readers of a recent blog post that introduced the Homer resume project, suggestions from the Pongo staff, and my personal recollections (of which there are quite a few).

Here it is. Click on it to see a larger version.

@ Amber -- Thanks! Homer has had many jobs during the course of the show. We only had so much room in our efforts to keep his resume to one page. Good suggestion though!

There's so many jobs Homer has done, so obviously you have to miss a few... but under awards I can't believe you forgot the Grammy for the B-Sharps.

@ Daniel -- Yep, missed that one. I remember the episode well. I especially liked the Beatles parallel and the parody of Barney's girlfriend as Yoko. Don't know if Homer can make a career change into entertainment, but a Grammy is a Grammy! ;-)
