    Just add these lines to your experience section:

    2010-2016 Permanent Wage Slave

    * Spent every hour of every day working for my employer
    * Grew fat on crappy hotel food and lack of exercise due to spending all my hours in airports
    * Work consisted of so much BS I've lost any skills I had
    * Looking for anything at all in desperation.

    Simples.
    Hard Brexit now!

      Never more than a few months. My CV is important to me - even if in role and relatively secure. I like to know I have it ready to send to someone if required; even if for speculative purposes (or 'networking', ugh).


      Cos I'm a contractor, not a perm. Like you were.


      Or a perm in disguise. Like you were.
      Practically perfect in every way....there's a time and (more importantly) a place for malarkey.

        Similar. As soon as I have achievements at my current clientco that make the cv worth updating, it gets updated. So, yeah, not changed it for four years

          Thanks. Put that, and got an interview as your new boss later tomorrow.
