“Due to overwhelming response ,
We are sorry to inform you that you have not been shortlisted….”

Overwhelming , yeah right.

I like the word shortlisted, though.
It’s like :
“Its not that you are not qualified , but since the list is so short ,
so we are unable to fit in your name to it.
Specially since there are people who are already in the list. ”

To be honest , after receiving many letters with similar intention ,
I have stop having the “rejected feeling” after reading the letters.
and I have to tell you that I am proud of my persistent optimism;
well I still get a little excited while checking my mailbox and e-mails ,
thinking that i might get a good news someday someway .
A job offer , a love letter , a letter of appreciation , anything.

Of course in reality my mailbox is always filled with overdue bill,  rejection letters,
and people telling me to do work ( and fix my work) .

well, At least they said they are sorry to inform me,
I do hope that makes me feel a little better.

blame the economics recession!
