Comment on I've noticed a lot of UK job applications use the American MM/DD/YYYY date format and some also say "resume" instead of CV. Does that annoy you if you're British?

        If you really need a specialized toolset to handle managing dates and times in a program beyond whats already there, then find a library that has the tools you’re looking for or make it yourself if it doesn’t exist. Extending the date class is always an option.
