I am looking for a word that could substitute "wear and tear" in a resumé.
The original was:
"Wear and tear inspection reports for the preliminary maintenance of tools and equipment."
I had found:
depletion, depreciation, erosion, ablation, attrition, consumption, decrement, dissipation, hard wear, overuse, ravages of time, wearing away, and weathering.
(None of them quite fit since I was talking about offshore drilling tools and equipment. In this case "upkeep" deals with the concept in a better way.)
Best Answer
Depending on context, if you are discussing dealing with wear and tear of equipment, you might consider
SUPPLEMENT
In light of your edit, also consider condition.
