About a month ago I applied for a job advertised in the local newspaper. It was for a job I didn’t really want, for a company I didn’t really want to work for, but I felt that I had a responsibility to apply for any job that I was even remotely qualified for. With the national unemployment rate now at 10.2%, I feel as though I shouldn’t let any opportunity for gainful employment slip on by.
Last night I received an email from this company concerning the position I applied for. Here’s a screen shot:

By the name for the document they attached to the email for me to read, I don’t think I need to bother opening it. The title of the document says everything I need to know. I’ve been rejected.
I went ahead and opened the document and read it. Nowhere in the letter does the word “rejection” appear. In the letter, they are much nicer in how they tell me that don’t want to hire me.
Being unemployed is so much fun.
