Word

Today, I sent my resume to a place where I hoped to work at. Since the job requires me to be doing work on the run, I put on it that I have a laptop. The only problem is that I always thought it was "labtop." I didn't learn the correct spelling until my daughter called me an idiot, she's 6. FML

It's hard for me to believe you've never seen the word "laptop" before. How about ads? How about the side of the box your laptop came in? How about news articles? even television ads?

YDI. You should ALWAYS spell check a resume before sending it.

Your daughter is right, but i understand why that mistake is made. Mistake = stupid, you = possibly stupid. You = possible mistake.

So many people think this. I can't understand it.

Dude, I will probably be the first to admit that for a good majority of my life I called it a "labtop" as well, so I understand your embarassment, but seriously man! Use SpellCheck! Especially on a resume!

People like you should not be allowed to procreate. But since you already have, I'm glad to see you spawn is smarter than you.

I used to think it was labtop too!!! hahahaha I thought I was the only one :)

I thought it was 'labtop' too when I was 5-8, and then from my older sister, I learned it was called laptop. Don't feel ashamed, everybody makes mistakes.

but not everybody makes these mistakes on their resume

hopefully they thought it was a typo/misspell...which is still a mistake, but better than them thinking you're illiterate :)
