It annoys me even though I’m still in the U.S.

Edit: For everyone saying CVs and resumes are different, that might be literally the case, but that is not how job applications are using them. I just went to this one:

    It’s the same shit as the kids saying “candy” instead of sweets in the UK, and getting british accents from Peppa Pig in the US.

    The date stuff is super stupid though :

    1. Fuck the US date scheme

    2. You don’t need fucking day numbers for anything on your CV, except your DOB.

    3. 7th Jan 2007 . You’re welcome, now it doesn’t really matter which order you put the DD/MM

      But do you write September as Sep, or Sept? I’ve heard that this is also a British/USA thing
