How many of you recent college graduates just received a letter from
Charles A. Binswanger Associates Incorporated informing you that there
is a high-paying position they know of which you are qualified for?

I just got this letter, which also asks me to kindly fill in the small
gaps in their knowledge about me.  (They need to know such things
as my height, weight, age, sex, marital status, number of children, and
whether I own a home or rent).  They also want to know if I have any
`physical defects'.

Since they have sent the letter to my old college permanent residence
(which is two addresses out of date) I assume they saved up college
grad lists and waited a few years until the new grads acquired some job
experience, and are now ready to put you up on the block if you let
them.

At least Source EDP is upfront about what they do.  They put their name on
the envelope and offer you the chance to be placed, rather than sneaking
around and asking you questions that they have no need/right to know.

I realize that this letter will largely negate the impact of the letter from
Binswanger, and I apologize to them for that (hee hee hee.)

If you have received such a letter please mail to me and I will summarize
the number of openings on the net.
