Today, I found out that my resume contained the word "masturbation" in the skills section, courtesy of a practical joke by my best friend. I have been using this CV unsuccessfully for over two months. FML

Did your friend put it in the "skills" section, or is it a "hobby"?

28- there are a couple factors that determine whether something is a skill, a hobby, or both. In order for it to be strictly a skill, OP must be talented in the realm of masturbation from much experience, but doesn't enjoy it. If it is only a hobby, than OP just enjoys it, but would fail miserably against someone in a contest. Or OP, like many people, masturbated a lot because they like it, and this experience gains skill. It probably would have been safer for his friend to write "I'm lonely" in the "about me" section.

Did other skills include being a master debater or a master baiter? Politics or fishing may be your thing!

What kind of job are you looking for? My regular guys rates went up and I'm looking for someone with that skill set at the right price

42- Your definitions were so far from being correct. You can enjoy something you're skilled at and you can be great at a hobby... Also, it was a resume not a Facebook profile. There is no 'about me' section.

42- That is entirely untrue. You can have a hobby you enjoy and win some sort of contest at it because you are very good at what you like doing. And I don't see any reason why you can't enjoy a skill you use at the workplace. Also, the whole resume is an 'About Me' section. Your skills, training, previous jobs and reasons why you quit or were terminated.

He clearly put it in the skills section. -_-

Your friend is a piece of shit. YOU are also a dick for not noticing sooner. Someone with a sense of humour might offer an interview, if they are looking for attention to detail in a candidate..

He went blind from masturbating too much.

^ I'm pretty sure that's not possible. Unless, of course, OP has really bad aim.

Your friend sounds awesome. 8D

4- you look like the Emo version of Miley Cyrus to me. (I read your profile I'm sure you are not Emo...)

Well hey, it could still get you a job! Maybe not one you especially wanted, but.....

It could be a valuable skill for assembly line jobs. Toned arms and dedication to repetitive actions. It's all in finding the right hr person to explain it to.

Prostitute....male or female OP would be amazing, especially at handjobs.

yeah I don't think many employers are looking for that

Unless its for a job in the **** industry.

If that's the case, 6 would be great for the job. Those abs are like cheese graters!

Didn't you bother rereading it before two months because you weren't getting a job?

*gasps* HOW DARE YOU SPEAK OF COMMON SENSE! That's a forbidden magic! DEVIL'S WORK!!! You're going to hell! EVVVVVIIIILLLLLLLLLLLLLL

This person is making so many job-seeking errors. You aren't supposed to use a one-size-fits-all resume. Tailor your resume for every job you apply for. And ALWAYS review it before sending out. Common sense isn't that hard. This is SUCH a huge ydi.

WHAT IS THIS WIZARDY YOU SPEAK OF?! COMMON SENSE... UGH, STOP IT. YOU EVIL VILE CREATURE! PREACHING SUCH BACKWARDS TEACHINGS! WE WON'T STAND FOR IT! HEATHENS! ALL OF YOU!!!

There's nothing wrong with bragging about it 2 ur possible employer

Good luck getting a job in the future with that kind of thinking 0.0

Yeah? Well I'm definitely happy about not being your employer.

After every hand-in look back over it and look for honest potential improvements or modification. I dont like it when people don't make sure everything is in order

Well is it one of your skills? Cuz if it is, then you are just applying to the wrong jobs.
