Today, I emailed my potential boss a copy of my résumé. However, I didn't realize until too late that it was my fake resume, created for an English class project. Some of my former jobs included being a certified gangster, as well as the former president of Canada. FML

Your American boss probably won't know there is a Prime Minister of Canada.

So you obviously didn't even look it over for errors in grammer, spelling, etc. or to see that you didn't miss anything. And if your fake resume was for class, shouldn't you keep it separate from your real personal files? YDI.

I apologize, but I can't possibly resist the irony. It is spelled "grammar" not "grammer". Unless, maybe you are discussing your parent's mother? LMAO!!! Spellcheck much? OMG!

Yes. How appropriate to compare one, single spelling mistake, in a generally well written comment (a rarity here), to sending a resume without so much as LOOKING at it before.

Maybe OP already checked for grammar and put his resume away, and picked it up again later to give to his boss. As for your second concern, maybe he didn't have his real resume in his personal files, and just had it lying around, causing him to pick up the wrong one.

Haha! Federal Gangster? That should open many doors for you!

He said certified, but my history lessions tell me that a 'Federal Gangster' might be applicable to some members of the FBI - many accepted bribes over speakeasies in the 1920s. Or to put it another way: "Lay your hands on the table. Every sonofabitch wearing a diamond is fired."

I'd hire you. I wouldn't want to piss a certified gangster off.

They might call the certified Mafia on you. I heard certified hit men are much more accurate than your average hit man.

if I were your boss, I would just think WINNING and maybe this guy has tiger blood as well as being the former President of Canada.

Email the real copy and explain? Maybe your potential boss will get a good laugh out of it and appreciate your sense of humor.

YDI for not looking your resume over before sending it. Although that is quite funny...

So you're an accredited Canadian gangster. Now residing up in Mass. When you tag or throw up gang signs do you also have to write it in French next to it? Also is there Canadian ebonics?
