Mine's in bold right at the top.Science isn't about why, it's about why not. You ask: why is so much of our science dangerous? I say: why not marry safe science if you love it so much. In fact, why not invent a special safety door that won't hit you in the butt on the way out, because you are fired. - Cave JohnsonComment

I'm getting so many calls from agents asking what my current clearance level is now that I thought I'd save them the trouble by putting it on my CV - then of course I realised that all agents are lazy bastards who never read your CV anyway...

Actually the fact you hold DV clearance is in itself Restricted and shouldn't be released into the public domain. It's perfectly acceptable to simply state you are Security cleared.
Yes, you are a shining example for educational standards aren't you? I'm surprised you can even spell degree, not been hitting the bottle yet?Originally posted by minestrone View PostJust put it next to your degree."I hope Celtic realise that, if their team is good enough, they will win. If they're not good enough, they'll not win - and they can't look at anybody else, whether it is referees or any other influence." - Walter Smith
