A match made in heaven

Every now and then I post on the resumes section of Craiglist to see if I get any hits. I would be looking for a different type of organization, and I make that clear. I pepper the post with words like "socially responsible", "world changing", "non profit", "environmental", etc, etc.

And EVERY time I do it, without fail, I get an email from a goddamn motherf-in military recruiter. The military has stooped so low that they are trolling craigslist. The military couldn't be further from what I have indicated that I am looking for. And the emails generally look something like this:

Hello my name is SGT Chris [last name removed to protect an innocent person sharing this guy's name]. I work with the US Army Recruiting
Command out here in San Diego. My job is to find highly qualified,
potential future employees for the Army and Army Reserves. I believe
you may be one of them. Upon entry into the Army you may qualify for up
to a $40,000 bonus, repayment of past school loans, the payment of
future education, and the job of your choosing on paper. As of right
now the Army is giving $20,000 to anyone who wants to leave before
September 30, 2007. If you would please reply to this email and let me
know if you would be interested in either a local job (Reserves), or
something outside of California (Active) please let me know. I will
then explain to you the qualifications needed to apply for a position.
Thank you for you time.

What a joke, huh?
