I don't get it...
    Posted by CheddarBBQ on 28 Feb 2010.
Then you might want to ask for help with your grammar. :-)
    Posted by JT on 28 Feb 2010.
Just don't ask the Jobcentre :)
    Posted by mike on 2 Mar 2010.
Cheddar - it should have said: "...that they could HAVE got...". "...help IN constructing a cv..." really should have been "...help WITH..." too. Actually, the entire second sentence is incorrect; but since I already have a reputation for being a grammar nazi I'll let it go.
    Posted by JT on 2 Mar 2010.
But if they could have got job offers due to basic errors, but missed out on them... maybe that means they need more basic errors in their writing?

That's so harsh man.
    Posted by Ghost on 5 Jan 2010.
Was there any particular reason why you felt it was abusive?
    Posted by mike on 6 Jan 2010.
The asker was a troll, he was calling answerers names. I doubt I was the only one who reported it.
