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.

...in other words...
Reason for leaving previous employment?

"Company went into liquidation"
"Made redundant in reorganisation"
"Regretably forced to leave on health grounds"
"Company relocated, family responsibilities meant it was impossible to follow"
"Employed on fixed contract"
"Position was temporary position due to employers business requirements"

All these appeared on my CV at one time or another. I left all the jobs because they were shit, I was bored or I wasn't paid enough, or a combination of the three.
