Okay. Whatever. I'll do what I can to accommodate. But when it comes to my fraternity, you've got to impress me in the first place.

So I asked the guy to email me his resume so I could get to know what he's all about.

He sends his resume and some other stuff, including a brief letter of interest.

The letter was addressed to another chapter in my city -- not mine.

I hit delete.
Okay, I get that his mess-up, coupled with his more complicated issues about meeting, is enough.

But is it simply that he didn't do enough research to realize it wasn't your chapter or did you think he knew it wasn't your chapter and he didn't care?

It's a subtle difference, but one that might matter to me if it were me, which of course, I realize it wasn't. I'm not trying to overstep my NPC limits.
