This is a question Lies I told on my CV

I've not had to lie on my CV (resumé for all you 'merkins) for a while, but way back when I was a teenager and C was a cool programming language, I listed it as one of my skills.

My new boss was remarkably nice about me spending my first week's employment reading a "how to program in C" book.

I used to put "spent some time in the Israeli Army", thinking that it made me sound 'kin 'ard.
"some time" equates to one week on a special course for forgeigners thinking of emigrating (I didn't).
It did always get picked up in interviews, but in a "get this fucking psycho out of my office" kind of way.
