I totally agree.

What kind of cheap cretin are you? For Shame.


Can you not read? Or are you just lacking in basic impulse control?

No, it would be tacky to accept her money unless of course she would like a copy for future job searches.

No, but the offer was nice. If she is asking for a copy for future employment, yes.

I wouldn't.

If she is unemployed AND has a family member who is ill enough that she has put the job search on hold, it's likely she needs that $30 more than you do.
