This is a question Lies I told on my CV

I've not had to lie on my CV (resumé for all you 'merkins) for a while, but way back when I was a teenager and C was a cool programming language, I listed it as one of my skills.

My new boss was remarkably nice about me spending my first week's employment reading a "how to program in C" book.

Not so much my CV
But the application form, was for a motor shop, full of.. things.. for .. cars..
I listed that over the years I regularly fixed cars with my dad over the years, and could practically strip and rebuild any engine you put in front of me.

The interview went like a dream, he was impressed, I was equally impressed with myself.

Last question of the interview.
"Can you tell me what the clutch does?"
"Um.. .. No."
"Ah."
"I'll be leaving now".
