Greetings /sci/,

I am updating my curriculum vitae (CV) and one of the perplexing issues that I am dealing with involves my, "personal interests" section.

Briefly put, I noted that I was a loyal fan of The Big Bang Theory television (TV) program. However, the quality of this TV program has diminished considerably since 2014 and I would not consider myself an avid fan of the more recent works. The focus on male-female bonding relationships detracted from the original premise and several of the characters have been relegated to mere caricatures.

Regardless, I wish to include this information but have amended it as follows. I presented my CV to a professional who felt that this should be omitted entirely.

I disagree with this and ask /sci/ for revisions or suggestions:

>Personal Interests
>3. I am an avid fan of the television program The Big Bang Theory, notably the first three seasons, which dealt with humor relating to science and the social sphere of scientists. Unfortunately, this television program declined significantly, with adverse changes more overt during the latter half of the fourth season. I therefore consider myself a fan of this television program series overall, however I wish to distance myself from the latter seasons, which focus primarily on relationship and low brow humor. I have edited 62 plot summaries and made amendments to actor/actress profiles relating to The Big Bang Theory on the Internet Movie Database (www.imdb.com).

Might as well say,
> I have an avid almost rabid Autistic obsession with a TV show and have made a 3D model of the complex character interactions elucidated by the show, entirely from women's underwear and the little wooden chopsticks you get in take away sushi boxes.

Just, lighten up a little. Keep the first sentence, ditch the rest.

If this isn't a troll for the lol's.

I strongly encourage you to keep that personal interest section. Some trolls will tell you to delete it because it makes you loom autistic as fuck, but these people are wrong, keeping it in gives employers a picture of the "personal you".

Thank you, this was my reasoning for including my personal interests in my CV. I wanted to stand apart from aseptic and generic CVs.

Nigga pls, no one cares about your tv watching. If you feel the need to put extracurriculars on your cv put ones that don't make you sound like a vapid ninny.

That's bad, though.
The more things you have outside the job, the more likely you are to not show.

This will impress, as it shows persistence and care, but you should go into more detail.

Make a video talking about each summary with commentary and link it in your cv with a transcript . It'll show verbal eloquence, extracurricular drive and literacy.

What is this meta-trolling, like, why waste your effort guys.

Say OP makes the video, he posts it here, will you even laugh?
