Well, you'd better not be thinking what I think you're thinking, because my answer is the same as always — no threesomes unless it's boy-boy-girl. Or Charlize Theron.

For those of you who have a resume and a CV, do you put dates on the resume? When I interviewed, they asked what I had been doing between positions. I'd been employed, but the positions/skills either weren't relevant to the current position or had been repeated in another position.

I was thinking of either leaving them off entirely or putting the amount of time in parentheses instead of the actual dates. Thoughts?

Omg, 5am for an 8pm flight? I mightve cried.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I absolutely put dates on the resume. Recruiters and potential employers have been obsessive about the time periods I've been employed and unemployed. It would never occur to me not to say.

Might be my industry, though. I never imagined a resume without dates. I don't have the luxury.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

I think I would have just stood there with a dazed look on my face....

Possibly followed by crying and/or cursing. Then I'd be searching out WiFi....

For me, I'm using a "functional" resume, that is not necessarily in chronological order, and highlights the particular skills in the jobs that I've had that are relevant to the position for which I am applying. I also provide a curriculum vitae that has all of my past employment with full dates, plus presentations, affiliations, etc.

Does anyone happen to know how to find what the Gaelic for priestess is? Google is giving me no love.

Then I suspect what I've been calling a resume might be closer to what you call a CV. It has all that sort of stuff (well, not that I have presentations--but affiliations, past certifications, and every damned date).

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

The functional resumes I've seen have a brief section that just lists job titles, dates, and places of employment, under the section that addresses skills.

What about this:

Kelly — from the Gaelic word for "warrior woman"; "farm by the spring". At an ancient shrine of the goddess Brigit at Kildare, there were sacred priestesses and warrior women called kelles, and its possible the name and surname came from them. Kellie, Kelli, Kaley.

From this Celtic name website.

Me, too. But I'm no longer amazed at his ability to talk his way into whatever he wants/needs.

Vortex, I think with a functional resume, it's okay to leave stuff (dates and non-relevant stuff) off. Mine is back to chronological, but after I graduated from law school, I put all my immigration related stuff upfront, even though it was all out of order.
