Hi,
Just a link to some funny resume bloopers...
http://www.ahajokes.com/off01.html
I liked the one below:
"They insisted that all employees get to work by 8:45 every morning. Couldn't work under those conditions." "
Sounds like they should work for a startup:)

I like this one here
"Please call me after 5:30 because I am self-employed and my employer does not know I am looking for another job."
People are just too funny. :D

"I intentionally omitted my salary history. I've made money and lost money. I've been rich and I've been poor. I prefer being rich."
I enjoyed this one.

Some more funny resume stories...
http://www.ahipubs.com/ubb/Forum1/HTML/009539.html
Ones that stand above the rest...
"My favorite was the one from a woman who not only listed her age, weight, and number of children, she also (proudly) included her membership in the NAAWP (National Association for the Advancement of White People). We didn't hire her."
And one that I can't believe is real! I wonder if this one was a joke resume...
"Well, he left one job because of an attempted murder against him. Among his positive traits he listed the following, "Unafraid of disease, death, children, commitment or gun wielding cops.
Can live anywhere, in any circumstances. I like hotel rooms, snow-holes, airline food, civil wars, and the occasional cavity search. I can communicate very well, even with no knowledge of local languages."
And one for bad spelling...
"Spelling'll getcha everytime. I received an application from a woman who listed that her previous job had been with a butcher shop. Under the section Describe your Job Duties she wrote "raped meat for customers"."
There are some funny stories on this forum.

This one was funny. I wonder if its all over the internet yet?
"Because the sales field requires a certain look and appearance, I've enclosed a photo of myself..." It was an 8x10 shot of a bosomy young blonde woman. Looked like she was fresh off the pages of Playboy! It was a picture of her from the chest up with the sun behind her golden hair! That too got passed around! I still have it years later.
