Have you heard the one about the woman in California who is unemployed and frustrated with her job search so she purchases iron on decals and puts her cover letter and resume on her shirt?
Kelly Kinney did just this when she saw a guy in line with a T-shirt and thought, ‘People pay attention to things they read on T-shirts,'" Kinnney said.
