You call the Maryland Job Service Hotline and are greeted by a smooth male voice. Hmm, perhaps the new switchboard operator, you think. In fact, the charming young man works for a sex hotline!
That’s what really happened to job seekers who called the phone number given on the state’s Family Health Administration’s website. It was incorrectly listed and was actually a phone number for women looking for sex. The mistake was repeated in a number of regional directories.
State officials say the situation should be corrected soon.
