Check out this dude's resume:
I see a lot of resumes... that's pretty cool.
Except that very little of it is actually about the guy!
I'm sure I've read/heard before that if you're a graphic artist, you're recommended to show off your skills on your resumes, instead of being all boring like normal people's.
Well, I'd expect a second page with all that stuff on.
I really need to make mine fancy. A Word document just won't do . . .
Can we call them CVs instead of 'resumes'; that word makes me feel a bit ill. 
I do . . .

It was in reply to Curt, I didn't want to confuse the poor lad.

Resume sounds daft. CV sounds cutting edge and hip . . .

Why can't we call them resumes?
*throws up from vertigo*
Indeed... being as I'm not cutting edge or hip I'll just copy what's written in front of me at the time!
'Resume' is the American term, 'CV' is the British term.
