After the arduous process of attempting to get hired by a particular nursing home, they decided that they could not hire me because I had misremembered the dates I had worked at a previous place.
I sent them an email:
Quote:Being able to remember when I worked somewhere years ago is not an easy thing, especially when I do not have W2s or pay stubs or anything written down to ascertain dates of employment, and as a result of having to make an educated guess as to when I worked at "retailer" it counts as falsifying information on my application. "This woman" informed me that I am ineligible to be hired at "your nursing home", and thus I have begun a search for employment elsewhere after I corrected the employment dates on my resume.
Thank you for the consideration, and I apologize for not being the proper fit for your work place.
Sincerely,
"my name"
I just finished applying to more nursing homes.

Sorry to hear that, I thought you had got that job. Something better will come up.

Call the old employer, if possible, and get the dates so that this doesn't happen again.
On hiatus.

I'm not that sure Phaedrus will be interested in your sexual proclivities...
It's not uncommon downunder to hear the phrase in any pub after a few
beers "Fuck me, I could be rooting that chick all night if I play my cards right".
Or "That redhead over there looks like a good root".
I'm a creationist; I believe that man created God.
