It tastes like eggs! Which is good news if you don't want to actually eat eggs.

Just eat a f**king egg.

Bah. Forgot to pick up some 3D glasses from Sainsburys . . .

'Resume' is the American term, 'CV' is the British term. :)

We can't use the term "CV" in this country because tens of thousands of dyslexic Vietnam veterans will have painful flashbacks to the war.

Curriculum vitae isn't even English :S

It's Latin. Latin's English, cos we own the rights. Unimpressed

What do you call it in Canada, "le resume"? Pleased

I think it's an 'all aboot me, eh?' form there.

:D

Why do we have to use such a poncey term anyway?

Why can't it just be work history?

Pleb. Unimpressed

Give me one good reason.

Not why I'm a pleb - there's loads of them - but what is the point of calling it a CV?

Because most people can't read, spell or even pronounce 'Curriculum vitae'.
