Aralan posted:Isn't the general resume lie for being in prison to say you worked for whatever state/municipal entity controlled the prison you were in well considering i was in federal prison i think US FEDERAL GOVERNMENT might raise more questions than it answers considering i cook for a living lol. i've steady employment history my entire adult life so i just stretch the work dates and considering my boss prior to prison was an ex-con too he doesnt mind lying for me

If anything, being able to trick your employers is a time honored tradition, dating back at least as far as Achilles convincing Agamemnon he was invincible

Aralan posted:Actually I'm a developer and I Google everything and now I'm pretty sure I know less about programming than I did when I graduated Apparently most college graduates don't really know how to program. Yet they still get jobs. http://blog.codinghorror.com/why-cant-programmers-program/ quote:I've personally interviewed graduates who can't answer "Write a loop that counts from 1 to 10"

SweetKarma posted:Apparently most college graduates don't really know how to program. Yet they still get jobs. lol I still check to make sure I can do fizzbuzz whenever I start farming out my resume. Nobody's ever actually made me do it*, but I can totally understand how a developer who spends his life crawling around legacy code would forget how to do something that basic. As a basic bitch graduate I could've done it in every language I got taught though, so I don't know what kind of garbage curriculum they run in the schools that guy deals with. *They occasionally make me do pseudocode online, but mostly just logic puzzles. One time they asked me the water jug question from Die Hard 3 and got upset when I said "Oh hey that's the puzzle from Die Hard"

FishionMailed posted:lol if you went to school and didn't just straight lie about it on your resume Pretty much this. It makes me wonder how far ahead I could get just by lying on my resume. Let's be honest, most people don't actually use the poo poo they learned in college or trade school in day-to-day business.
