Flattery or Laziness? Plagiarism on Craigslist

ad
This one’s good for a chuckle…We know most brokers aren’t known for being wordsmiths, but evidently some are lazier than others. On Sunday, Chris Pepe of N.C. Pepe wrote a help-wanted ad on Craigslist. In his original message (which has now been edited but we’ve got a screen shot of the original), he tells potential applicants to send a cover letter and resume to sperez@aptsandlofts.com! Seems strange to send potential hires to a competitor until you realize that much of the text of the ad, including the list of qualifications, had been lifted verbatim from an earlier Aptsandlofts ad. Nice.
