You're hired
We get some funny resumes, and I'm sure every company does. One had a list of the guys martial arts expertise, that included some odd usage of quotes.
Actual expert;
I had to "neutralize" some "punks"
Once back in my Hastings days we got an application that was all very serious looking but at the very end under other qualifications he had written 'seen some shit'
I'll never forget that, I often wonder if he meant he'd been through a lot in life, or had been a plumber. It has kind of a sad ring to it like a Vietnam vet might say 'seen some shit' in an effort to spare you the horrific details lest you lose your faith in humanity.
Now many years and disappointments later, I could rightly include 'seen some shit' on my resume too.
