featherynscaleDear Applicants:
If you are trying to get a job (as opposed to merely applying for one to satisfy the requirements to collect unemployment), it is helpful to list an email contact on your resume. However, if your email address contains the word "wanker", "wankster", any other form of the word "wank", or indeed, any other reference to your tendency to masturbate, you might want to consider whether listing that address is a net gain of any points at all. Now, if your last name happens to be Wanker, that's one thing. But even then, if it were me, I'd think about changing my name.
Yours sincerely,
HR
