Had to come back and double check your answer about throwing up before entering your current competition Craig. Self preservation and all that. LOL.

Hmmm...so whats NOT on my cv...
Well considering that im a Dental Hygienist i thought i would leave the following off....

Worked as a Grid Girl numerous times in Adelaide for the Clipsal 500 & for motorbike racing events.

Promotional modelling at various nightclubs selling alcohol and wearing ridiculous short outfits with fluffy bits..

Competing in various modelling competitions and becoming a runner up in the 'little black dress competition'

I have my current motorbike license..so if my car breaks down its not a problem...(so what if like to ride! ;) )

I accidentally water flooded a dental surgery in my first job after i graduated as a dental assistant (and yes, the difference between the role of dental hygienists and assistants are very different)
I was sacked not too long after that.

Was a cheerleader for a footy team here in Adelaide...

I worked as a cleaner with my mums business (i was desperate too)

Worked at video ezy when i was 16 and they slowly cut down my hours (i didn't know what that meant) as my friends kept calling on the phone and my stupid boyfriend and his mates would come into the store and cause havoc....so i had no hours....i take it i got the sack!?

I spent a few days at a well known Indian restaurant.....my time was cut short there after i spilled curry down a mans white shirt and dropped a plate of food...

So do you think i would be working in my current position in a highly recognised professional dental practice if i popped that info on my resume?

Love your work Craig,

Hi Corinne..

You get your people to call my people and we'll do that half-way thing!

My mother would be more proud if I gave her a grandchild!

Cheers.

HI Lightening...

"Do you think there's a time when throwing up is useful as part of getting fit? Or can it be done without going quite that far?"

No need for throwing up...

Hi Pet...

"Back then I'd get $100 just for sticking on a hula skirt & shaking my booty."

How canI focus now?

Dear Craig -

Your real CV makes you even more interesting!

Loved it all!

Mine is almost as long.

We'll have to meet someday halfway
(Figi?) and have at least a three martini lunch!

And

I will tell the entire truth about myself!

More seriously, I believe that we take something from everything we do - even McDonalds for an hour - and use it later!

Thanks for the CV. Tell your mother she should be proud.

I'm sure she is!
