Can't Believe This Hit The Yahoo Homepage

http://finance.yahoo.com/news/tenacious-summer-an…

I can't find the thread where this was discussed earlier, but man, I feel bad for this kid. Now that it is on the yahoo homepage he is going to have to rework this cover letter from scratch.

I have done some dumb things while networking and I am glad my sophomore year begging did not go viral. Be careful what you put out there.

 

I mean there are so many gems in this letter though.

\"Can perform basic office functions with terrifying efficiency\"

\"That semester I achieved a 3.93, and in the same time I managed to bench double my bodyweight and do 35 pull-ups.\"

\"I am unequivocally the most unflaggingly hard worker I know, and I love self-improvement.\"

He also says he wants to work for Morgan Stanley later in the CL, even though it is a letter to JP Morgan.

Reality hits you hard, bro...
 

i wonder if this kid has ever lurked WSO before...

i feel bad for him - he probably will have to change his name to be seriously considered for anything remotely competitive. but, for fuck's sake, if you go to NYU - less than a couple of miles from most of these firms - then know that JP Morgan and Morgan Stanley are not the same company!
