    I got an email from a recruiter that said I was a perfect fit for, and I kid you not, a Dentist Receptionist. Even with random word matches on my CV I still can't figure out how I got on the distribution list! :)

    Well using computers to search for patient records / coding complex solutions to store and find said patient records. It's all the same right? ;P

      I got phoned by an agency that specialised in technical positions. The job she wanted me for was a Motor Mechanic. I told her I didn't know anything about cars. She said but your CV says you're an Engineer but you don't know anything about Engines? She then scoffed at me.

                  Maybe they know that getting decent code is like pulling teeth. :~

                  It was broke, so I fixed it.
