I have NC for this ... a friend from university (we're talking more than 20 years ago) has landed herself a very prominent job. She's all over twitter and the media being very pleased with herself. We haven't been in touch for years and years. In the things she is claiming about her career there are a number of things she is saying about herself that just aren't true. Jobs she's done and projects she's worked on that didn't happen. And I know this because at that time I was in the same field and I know either who was or I know that she wasn't there - she was hanging out down the student union with the rest of us. Wouldn't bother me if it wasn't for the insufferable amount of smug she radiates. Oh and the fact that she is being heralded as a model for women when she has been deeply unsupportive of other women in her career. Very much the woman who likes to be the only woman in the room.
