I'm so unemployable I'm getting rejection letters for jobs I didn't apply to!
   
A couple of months ago I applied to two openings at a college in California; jobs for which I was eminently qualified. They were both in the same department.

Well, I received two rejection letters. I shrugged it off (it's not the first time) and went back to looking for the next prospect. Well, a week ago I received a third letter from the college informing me I was no longer in the running for a third position in a different department! A position I never applied to!

Okay! Okay! Don't rub it in! I got the message with the first two letters!

What a revolting situation!

(I wonder how many more rejection letters I'm going to received from this college?  )

2. I've been getting those too
   
A headerhunter in a different part of the country got my resume off Monster and has been applying me for jobs I don't even want or am not qualified for.

Monster Jobs? Yeah, um sure, whatever.

Dear DUmmie, many times a company will keep your resume on file for any potential job openings in the future. Looks to me like the sanitation engineer position was also above your qualification level.

If that's the grammar you're going to use, I'd suggest you get used to a whole stack of rejection letters.

No headhunter has singled you out for your magnificent talent, in order to lavish you with job offers.  This is an email bot.  Flatter yourself much?

You have to applaud the foresight of any outfit that sends DUmmies pre-emptive rejections.
This could have prevented TwixVoy's dissappointment at the air  port.

What is a headerhunter?
Headhunters are recruiters. They find qualified people to fill jobs, and typically charge the employer a fee that amounts three or four times the new employee's monthly salary.

I think it has something to do with soccer, but the game is so gay and boring, I never watched enough to learn.

Maybe you can keep wishing and hoping for that "hope and change" or maybe better yet,........."yes, we can".
