Oh my god, ohmygod, OHMYGOD!
I'm on a massive job search right now. In fact, all my extra money, patience and time have gone into this project (or whim, if you're my dad) and I do something dumb.
I sent a cover letter in electronically that said (rather than "greetings" or "dear Mr. so-n-so") "Dear Please Whoever Will Hire Me".
Yes, I did that.
WHEN DID I BECOME SUCH A PSYCHOTIC?
I'm never going to get a job at this point.
I really don't remember sending that copy. The one I swear I sent was nice, professional and pretty as a picture. The only reason I had the other salutation at all is because it was a place holder -- I've been using a template of a cover letter since April. And yes, normally I am absolutely perfect about typos and adjusting my cover letter to the place I'm applying very, very well. But THIS?? I seriously mess with my own fate.

Oh honey. I am so sorry. How did you find out about it?
I went to write some more cover letters later that evening and realized the oops. Its all good now though. I applied online and I went back into my profile and switched stuff out before I even wrote this post. Whew!
