Unattached Nurse
Catherine, a nurse, was unhappy with her job, so she submitted her
resignation. She was sure she'd have no trouble finding a new position
because of the nursing shortage in her area.
She e-mailed cover letters to dozens of potential employers and attached
her resume to each one. Two weeks later, Catherine was dismayed and
bewildered that she had not received even one request for an interview.
Finally she received a message from a prospective employer that
explained the reason she hadn't heard from anyone else.
It read: "Your resume was not attached as stated. I do, however, want to
thank you for the lasagna recipe."
