Everybody Loves Wife

Wife got some nice, ego-boosting news today: she got a job offer from the employer that was her second choice. Though this is an incredible position at a wonderful company, Wife has already accepted the job that was her first choice. I think she ought to have written a rejection letter that looks something like this (this is funnier if you know who made the offer, but Wife said I can’t reveal that tidbit):

Dear Employer:

Thank you for your offer of employment. Due to the large number of highly qualified employers contending for my services, competition was extremely intense. Unfortunately, I regret to inform you that your offer of employment was not successful.

I wish Employer the best of luck in its future endeavors.

Sincerely,

Wife

Update: Wife just read this post and sent me the following email: "Ummm...my email to Employer sounded pretty much just like that."

Actually, the email didn't sound that conceited and there were additional lines about enjoying meeting them, best of luck in their continued search, yada, yada, yada.
