“Kling-on” is not a real language, so don’t bother to put it on your resume under skills/fluent languages! I don’t care that you’re obsessed with Star Trek, listing Kling-on just tells me you’re a weirdo or you don’t take job hunting seriously. —Gimme a Break

If you didn’t hire the BEST qualified applicant to wield the Batl’eth of Kahless, then you my friend, are a contemptible bigot and are clearly without honour.

Maybe I’m just too laid back, but if somebody dropped off a resume at my workplace and they had Klingon listed as a language they are fluent in, I would think that’s awesome!

OP, wait until you see a resume with “Fluent in Ghetto. Location North Preston.”
If someone gave me a resume stating Klingon as a fluent language, I’d only have one question for them: Would you?
If you are truly fluent, you’ll know the answer 😉 And I would.

I would find that very amusing, and it sounds like they’d be more fun to work with than you would.
Or it means they have a sense of humour…lighten up.
sebastian probably argues that it’s homophobic for gay applicants not to be able to write “lisp” or “fabulous” under spoken languages.
