I posted before about being patient after applying for a job. I really really wanted this job but the Manager called me and said although they liked me and I'd fit in well, he had chosen someone who had more experience. He asked if he could keep my details etc.
The following week I was interviewed and accepted for a post in the same industry but not exactly what I wanted, a longer commute and only part-time. Start date next week.
Today job No1 has come back and said they have another vacancy and would I like it! Full time, no commute and exactly the position I trained for in uni and want. All further training in profession available once probation completed successfully. Start in a month.
It's a no brainer really. I am going to go to the original company. But I feel really bad at now declining the second job a week before even starting. They were such lovely people!
Any ideas on how to word my "thanks but I'm retracting my job acceptance" email?
