Lies I told on my CVI'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.

Helped a Mate - Bad IdeaMy CV is clean, but years ago I helped a "friend" cut, paste, and otherwise forge a very nice copy of our bosses college diploma -- after all, it wasn't doing anybody any good just sitting there on the wall.
Cut to 15 years later, same old "friend" and I are in competition for the same job. His degree cinched it for him, and I couldn't blab due to my involvement in the forgery.
Hoisted on my own petard, or something....
