I have a patent and wouldn’t put it on my resume. Anything I patent belongs to my company anyways, what’s the point really.
I did bring it up to my son’s 3rd grade class a couple years ago when I volunteered to help them with their “inventions” project. They were so impressed, like I was a genius. Then I showed them what I invented and they weren’t as impressed, which I knew would happen, but I brought it up to show them even simple ideas can be patentable and be worth $.

Nobody (well most people) don't put down a bad reference. It's super common to call the places they have listed as their past employment and ask someone about them. Non corporate, and the person you call and ask about them is normally the owner. I hear all kind of stuff from "wich he still worked here" to "I fired him" and once "dod you know where he is so I can call the police he stole a bunch of shit".
My first bosss and also an investor in me had a number of patents from when he worked for Texas Instruments. He had moved on and he told me he didn't share that info with anyone, but if so motivated someone could find the info.
