"Skills: Absolutely fucking none. I cannot even make a cup of tea properly."
"Work History:
# 2003: Job At University
# Not actually doing anything I was being paid to do
# Taking speed in the toilets
# Reading course books and pretending to be invisible"
"Achievements: Despite my best efforts I am not dead yet. Also, I have a pirate costume I made myself. I can wear it to the interview if you like."
(Sadly my own honest CV would be v. boring and would mostly be like my school reports, which, translated from we're-not-allowed-to-say-little-Johnny-is-a-psycho school-report-speak, say I am bright but idle, and should stop skulking about by myself reading.)
