Higher Standards?

This came in to our office general email today. It includes a Bank of America logo at the top ("Higher Standards") which has been pasted from the BofA Careers page, and then it just jumps into bad grammar right from the gate, dissolving finally into the last paragraph which missed the Spellcheck. You'd think they'd put some effort into it ... They don't deserve my credit card number:
