An unsuccessful job search is as frustrating as it is annoying.
For this applicant, the reason was a strange mistake - which she also noticed late.
A lot of energy goes into looking for a new job.
Even putting together the application documents and writing the various cover letters is tedious.
In addition, there is the
fear of being rejected
.
That can be very depressing and everyone deals with the situation differently.
Some give up disillusioned, others respond with an angry email to the rejection *.
The friend of the Reddit user "MyNameIsFranks" did exactly the right thing.
She did not give up and continued to diligently send out her application documents.
The problem: she didn't even get rejected.
When she noticed the reason
, the house blessing was crooked for the time being
- and her boyfriend found it difficult to explain.

Unsuccessful job search: Partner caused serious errors in the application
User “MyNameIsFranks” reports somewhat contrite on Reddit about his girlfriend's unsuccessful job search, for which he has
no negligible complicity
.
It all started when the Reddit user's partner was not at home and asked him to save her cover letter on her computer.
Apparently easier said than done because: for some reason, the laptop apparently decided to put
the PC username on the top line of its resume
.
The result: In the coming months, the friend applied under the sonorous name "
Princess Banana Hamm
"!
Apparently there was no room for the full name, reports "MyNameIsFranks" on.
Because it reads completely “Princess Banana Hammock”.
Fans of the sitcom classic "Friends" will know him
: One of the main characters, Phoebe, had adopted this name in a later episode of the series.

The mistake remained undetected for a long time - but now things should go uphill
The strange name on the résumé should also explain why “MyNameIsFranks” 's partner had applied unsuccessfully for so long, and why she did not even receive rejections.
When she went
through her application
three months later
, she noticed the
fatal mistake
and was able to fix it.
In any case, she did not let her boyfriend get away with impunity: "MyNameIsFranks" ends his Reddit post with the explanation that his girlfriend doesn’t like him and
he’s never allowed to use her laptop again
.
At least the applications could be more successful from now on.
