As an adult I'm sad it'll air on Friday nights now but I remember how much I loved TGIF as a kid so here's hoping a ~new generation~ gets to make great memories with the show

And to answer my own OP question: That "related skills" section (with all the tech stuff) and my language proficiencies ("fluent" when I can have conversations but not read, "intermediate" when it should be "basic", "basic" when I only remember a few words) are pretty much all lies, yeah

I dont lie on my resume bc even the thought of an employer/potential employer calling me out on it gives me anxiety

but lying on a resume is definitely a high risk, high reward kind of game. I'm jealous of people who are willing to go for it tbh

Hah, same. So many people are like "It's no big deal, everyone does it" and I could never.

Same. I'd be mortified if they challenged me on it during the interview and I can't back it up with anything concrete. Job interviews are stressful enough, I don't need more anxiety.

I once got a resume when we were recruiting on my last job that had “portunhol” (as if the person has written spanglish but with portuguese and spanish) listed as a language skill.
