5 Months Later….
AG,
Hey there buddy. I wanted to drop a note and thank you for applying to proof and edit my blog.
I did just hire someone for the position, five months after the fact. But why are you surprised, I was totally late to the interview!
My life is very important.
Thanks again, I remember what it was like reading those Playbill ads myself, back in the day when I was just a young theatrical whippersnapper like yourself. Ah, those were the days, my friend. I thought they’d never end.
But they did and now I’m too important to even be on time for an interview.
Good luck. You’ll need it.
Wait, who are you?
I am completely unprofessional!
Love always,
Snookums
Oh how EMBARRASSING I meant that for my lover! Ah, isn’t life funny?
Well, I hope you can forgive me and not try to seek revenge by completely re-writing this experience and posting it on a BLOG or something hahahaha.
That would be…that would be totally ironic.
I didn’t touch the first sentence of that rejection letter. Just wanted to let you all know!
AG
