In an age where competition is fiercer than a hungry lion at an all-you-can-eat buffet, many of us are guilty of claiming expertise we don’t possess. Yes, I’m talking about those “expert Excel skills” and “proficiency in Google Calendar” declarations that everyone seems to make! But oh boy, what happens when your boss expects you to whip out those flourishes during a meeting?

Buckle up; we’re diving into some hilariously cringeworthy tales from the world of résumé embellishments gone wrong.
