OT - Errors on cover letters

[cupton at syclone.net]

I received a resume and cover letter (unsolicited) from a young woman
requesting a job in wildlife rehabilitation. (I do the emails for the
humane society.) One of her many attributes is being a skilled "typer."
She is a high school graduate who has managed a phone store for more than
three years, and there were dozens of grammatical, punctuation, and
spelling errors in her resume and the cover letter. We are failing our
kids.
