Not sure if he thought he was being clever? they probably passed it around and laughed their asses off.

Dear Funds Solicitor,

Some of you folks must have sure had a blast in college, because you never ended up
leaving the academic world to go out into the REAL WORLD and work for living.

 

Where's the rest of the letter?

 

Either there's more to this, or i'm as dumb as the guy who wrote it? Am I missing something?

 

The only parts i chopped off was the name & address of the college and his name at the end....

He is a bitter man!!!! He got laid off here and then again at his job after here....and his job previous to here.... so that is 3 in a row!!!!! his shirts sometimes didn't completely cover his big gut... that was a site for sore eyes!!!

 

I just got a letter from the CSU engineering dept looking for some money for a project car. They spelled my company name wrong. Yeah, the check is in the mail.

 

nonetheless, i find funds soliciting letters from my university offensive as well. if and when i decide to donate money to the university, i will do so on my own. i do not appreciate or need a letter from the university asking for a piece of my hard earned money. if the university had offered me a full scholarship throughout my years there, then that'd be a different story. but given that i had to pay for each and every single penny of my tuition as well as each and every single penny of my textbooks expenses on my own, i really don't feel i owe my univeristy anything. and if and when i do decide to donate money to them, it will be out of my own personal generosity.

 

When my college calls looking for donations i always tell them that they have the wrong number.

I don't like it either, but i haven't typed a goofyass letter like that...... they probably think he is a lunatic after reading that letter.
