    It was more of a comment on the meme, not the actual original content of the photo.

    If we’re taking OPs word on the meme to be true, then it’s accepted that most people use clever wordplay to make themselves more competent and important on their resumes than they actually are, putting every tiny accomplishment front and center. Some people even outright lie on their resumes to get ahead.

    I’m speaking to the idea that perhaps someone like OP also has skills but is more humble in their approach and is willing to rely on their affability over their less colorful resume. I personally am saddened by it and think we need a world where an ounce of humility is a good thing and being willing to accept our limitations instead of build ourselves up beyond what we really are is good too. The world of resumes refuses any shred of humility and I think the world suffers for it.

    I actually agree with your interpretation of the photo itself.
