<\/p>\n
Dear Sir or Madam:<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
It is my wish that you gainfully employ me at your institution. My entire life has been filled with<\/p>\n
a deep and abiding desire to exchange my labor for currency. Your institution provides currency<\/p>\n
in exchange for labor. It is therefore logical that I exchange my labor for your currency. You can<\/p>\n
then appropriate the products of my labor and use them to acquire more currency.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
While it is the role of every sentient being to exchange labor for currency and contribute to<\/p>\n
the GDP, you might consider me as the next replacement in an endless line of faceless laborers<\/p>\n
for several reasons. First and foremost, I can perform special labors. These labors are not<\/p>\n
actually special but if I am a good enough liar you might select me to exchange labor for some<\/p>\n
of your limited supply of currency. Second, I am willing to exchange labor for currency at a less<\/p>\n
favorable rate, relative to some benchmark rate that I claim I previously exchanged at. This is<\/p>\n
good for you because you can exchange less of your currency for more of my labor. This is also<\/p>\n
good for me because I was lying and will take whatever pittance you are willing to bestow upon my lowly being.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Finally, since I have exchanged similar labors for currency in the past, I will be a more<\/p>\n
efficient automaton than any other laborer you may be considering.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Please do consider my humble entreaty. I have tried farming, but my crops withered, and I<\/p>\n
stand to starve amongst the rest of the landless proletariat. I wish nothing more and hold no higher<\/p>\n
ambition than to be a happy cog in your capitalist machine.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Deepest and most pitiful grovelings,<\/p>\n
