How not to write business letters
I received a letter with amazing content under the heading "We want to hire you." With the permission of the sender, I quote it below.
Firstly, the message is clearly spamming in nature - it is not addressed to anyone specifically, and, obviously, was written for fan distribution to all more or less suitable candidates.
Secondly, I was amazed at the almost boorish immediacy of the appeal: a stranger first writes a stranger to a stranger “hello, to business”, “I am looking for myself to serve”, “first you need to be simpler,” turning to “you” and drawing wonderful, wonderful prospects - “In about a year, profit from own projects under my leadership is possible”. As the user papa has caustically commented on this case, “I am a young talent. Ischu niger. Inexpensive, but better for nothing. ”
Honestly, I used to have a similar style of addressing - as if to very stupid or naive people - I only met on the website free-lance.ru, where such announcements invariably cause non-illusory batthyrth (especially for users with a “pro” account) and angry reprimands in the comments. I didn’t expect that one day I would have to write in the same spirit on Habrahabr.
PS Separately, as a grammar-Nazi and a fan of the Trilogy with experience, I want to note that the “padawan” is not formed from the word “serve” and is written in “a” - yes, exactly.
Hello to the point
I do not have enough time for everything and am looking for myself a supporter or partner. If for you the question of salary does not stand on the brink of life and death, then after about a year it is possible to profit from your own projects under my leadership.

For example, now I need help in creating content for a project like ***, but only for RuNet.
As for interesting startups and other goodies that make work more interesting, there will be such an opportunity, but with time. First you need to be easier.
