Just realised that I spelt competencies wrong in the technical competencies header on my CV that I've been sending out for the last month or so.
Strangely it doesn't seem to have put many people off, if they've even noticed. My face. That's what puts them off.
Top Tip: By default Word doesn't check the spelling of words that are all in capitals.
Some men are born mediocre, some men achieve mediocrity, and some men have mediocrity thrust upon them.

Topper tip - instead of writing in capitals, use 'init-cap' format on the font to make it look far more betterer.

If the section headers hadn't been in all caps then it would have been obvious to people that I'd made the mistake, although then I wouldn't have made the mistake. Hmm.

That's a shame as you can always correct the typo.

Well, looking at your profile, it does seem to be made from mashed potato, beans and sausages ... that would put me off at a job interview to be honest!

Yeah, I'd ask what has been happening but I'm guessing there has been a lot of talk about Bacon, PompeyBoy has reincarnated several times and Q&A's is still annoying ... Is that about right? 
How's the job hunting? Not great I suppose from your other post?

Did he want to be a politician or something?
I bet he sold the Dalek suit...
If a candidate turned up on my doorstep dressed as a Dalek I think I might vote for him / her, after all it would liven up Prime Ministers Questions.

No bacon, what did he think?
Chocolate dipped bacon, that would be something.

Yes, which is why it is almost impossible to proof read your own stuff if the spellchecker doesn't catch it.
You know what the words should be, your brain tells you they are the right shape and size, you move on.
A few years ago I walked up to a glass door, it said push on it, so I started pushing, it would not open, I pushed harder, still would not open, then I realised the word push was written on the otherside of the door, and although it looked backwards to from where I was stood my brain had 'helpfully' translated it for me.

Am I correct in assuming you spelled it INCONTINENT ?

On the bright side, if you can't spell, they won't ask you to write documentation.
