Try a temp agency. Many temp agencies have temp to hire positions and they might be able to put your experience to better use. The receptionist at the office I work at does much more than just answer calls and greet customers. She is probably considered irreplacable by the owner of the company. She should be. Yes, I would send an anonymous letter to those companies telling them how ludicrous they are. They will probably have a constant turnover due to their greed. One of the most ridiculous ads I ever saw was one advertising for some position that required a college degree and bilingual in some obscure language (like Mandarin Chinese) and paid 6 bucks an hour. That was back in the eighties, but still it was stupidity on their part.

You know, looking at your writing, I doubt that you will make such a great receptionist. You need to get rid of this nasty habit of writing as if you are writing a text message. Maybe this is how you wrote your resume and didn't even notice it.
Do not send an anonymous letter, you will be wasting your time on something not productive, so use that time to figure out how come you couldn't get a basic job after so many interviews. Talk to some people who interviewed you and ask them for an honest answer as what would make them hire you.

Good luck.

Since they are clueless as to what to pay to get good staff, the efforts of a letter would be wasted on them as well. Take satisfcation in knowning they'll never get a decent employee for that rate of pay. And if you really do want to be a receptionist, you are really going to have to improve your writing and spelling skills.

Do what you feel you have to do re writing them a letter. Not sure what you want to accomplish that way, but if you just want to blow off steam, go right ahead.

If they can't find someone with the qualifications they want to work for the pay they are offering, they'll either have to raise the pay or lower the qualifications. If they CAN find someone qualified, then apparently they aren't asking too much.
