Today's recruiter email
This is unedited with the exception of removing names and adding a few [sic]. Note to recruiters: If you're copy/pasting the same thing to 200 people you're shotgun-emailing, try spellchecking at least first. Measure once, cut twice, and all that. Quadruple-spaced semiliterate notes with bad spelling and technical errors and four or five exclamation points at the end of each phrase give people the creeps.
