Hi! My name is
Bruce Nieder meyer.
I would like to work as a Game Master at
Mastermind Escape Games in Peachtree City, Georgia.
Because this job sounds like it was created for me. Games have always been
an important part of my life. I began playing Dungeons & Dragons at age 10,
and was playing strategy board games even before that.
Why?
The job description calls for a “professional,
polished, and well-spoken” individual. I
graduated cum laude with a BSEd. and taught
high school for 15 years, during which time I
created and used games in my classes to teach
such topics as post-colonial African development
and the Constitution.
I have since been working as a freelance
court reporter, but I would like to get
back to a job which interacts with people
more.
You want “hands-on and handy with tools and gadgets”?
I’m an old-school father. I fix things: cars, appliances,
computers, roofs, decks, toys, animal shelters, you name it.
Here are some construction photos of a campground my
friends and I designed and built in South Carolina:
And a treehouse in the front yard:
“Game or puzzle-minded”? A friend
owned this puzzle for many years, but he
had never been able to remove the cylinder
from the cage. He gave it to me, and I sent
him this photo a few days later.
Below, the Battle of Dresden in 15mm
Napoleonic miniatures, which I run at
DragonCon some years.
My current favorite game is full-contact medieval
combat called Dagorhir. The majority of the
weapons, armor, and costumes are created and built
by the participants.
We were filmed by the Discovery
Channel for an episode of their
“Mud Lovin’ Rednecks” show.
“Creative thinker”? During college, I created house rules to correct some of
the more glaring problems with D&D. In court reporter school, we were
challenged to use all 13 punctuation marks in the shortest paragraph. Mine was
the winning entry.
“’Fetch me my headsman,' the Queen
commanded me,” the handmaiden – was I
wrong for noticing her low-cut blouse? –
explained to me. "What I don't understand
is: Why would she want her new husband
(the Duke of Brockingham) dead?" "Cela
chienne!" [That bitch!] the handmaiden
exclaimed, "the poor Duke turned out to be
impotent; had he just taken a little blue
pill…"
I also have played bass guitar since I was 13.
High school metal band.
“80s Day” during
homecoming week. Church band I currently play with.
My schedule is flexible and I am available for part-time work. I look forward to
meeting you!
Thanks for reading! (regular resume on next slide)
