    Title. Got the idea from this thread ktt2.com/anybody-else-feel-like-your-job-is-too-advanced-for-you-86496

    I got a internship by making a resume that was 70% bullshit it was a graphic design position and I can actually do design but pretty much every job I put on there I lied about

    i was a lifeguard in 9th and 10th grade at this year-round rec center. you have to get recertified every year, prove you still know stuff like cpr, how to get a patient out of the pool if they break their spine on the diving board or some s***(if anyone’s ever done that practice save by god, such a b**** to do), etc.

    so basically you had two cliques of lifeguards, the swim team and some upperclassmen d***heads that f***ed around a lot(still good lifeguards tho). being a d***head myself(no dash emoji) i became friends with them, one of them became my best friend i still talk to every day, they’re like the only dudes from hs i still fw. anyway the two cliques didn’t get along at all, one time we came to the pool to f*** around on our day off when all the swimmers worked and i kept “accidentally” throwing the basketball for the pool hoop at this one lifeguard we all hated. we almost got in like a 10v10 brawl in the parking lot over it after the shift, until this one dude on my side pulls out a sock filled w batteries he just casually had in his truck

    anyway after sophomore year all the d***heads graduate/quit, so i just never show up again. didn’t tell anyone. idk why. fast forward to 12th grade, i need some extra money for a concert so i come back to the boss and apologize for how i ended my tenure, say i’ve matured, all that bullshit. she asks if i’m still certified and i just say “yeah i got one at the other pool” which we don’t have lmao, it’s a <10k population town in utah where it snows september-may anyway she buys it and i get the job back. i work one shift to get money for tickets and never show up again, again i was such a piece of s*** in hs

    I haven’t but my best friend’s older brother said he had a bachelor’s degree when he doesn’t. That helped him get some high paying sales job.

    I started my current business writing essays for students. Before I even typed a single word I told my friends I had a bigass clientele & was doing an Eng literature minor. Both bs but word got around & I started to actually get clients. Luckily I was good bough behind the keyboard & eventually got the minor eventho wasn’t planning it lmao. Fast forward 5 years it evolved to my main source of income

    I honestly think the only reason I got the job was because the interview went so well, I was just confident about it and I had good body language idk

  • Sep 12, 2020

    Of course, the trick to getting a job is being charismatic and confident at the interview.

  • Sep 12, 2020

    Lied about babysitting experience to get my current job. They’re even paying me a dollar over minimum cause I did so well on my interview lol over a month in now and it’s the best job ever for me tbh

    I used to work with a guy who said he worked as a breakfast cook for 2 years, and on his first day he asked me what an over easy egg was.

  • Sep 12, 2020

    He was actually a really good guy. Just a stoner kid trying to pay for college. Now he's getting his master's in environmental science. So if that's you, good.
