Not all resume mistakes are that funny. 

I wrote my resume and a service hired by the company did some editing for me.  They removed my phone number.  There were several places that likely would have contacted me that did not have a means to do so before I discovered the error. 

So if you have a service (or anyone) help you with your resume compare it with the original that you wrote quite carefully to see what changes they made.

That works for me man. I think It's because I ordered my Browser not to allow the use of Vowels.

I'll be working for a company that does preassembly for the Ford plant in Oakville.   Its a much bigger place than any I have ever worked for so it will be different.

Who told you I'm a robot?  I thought that rumour had faded years ago.
