Yes, but how do you cover the situation where your
Objective could accurately say: "Objective: A paying
job--anything, please, just something to keep a roof
over my head--I'll sweep your floors; I'll wash your
dishes; I'll document your PS/2 maintenance releases."

For this reason, I did not include an objective
section, and immediately jumped to a Technical Summary
that included all the skills and buzzwords I could
possibly apply.
