Best. Rejection. Letter. Ever.
 

I know I posted this before (in one of my SFW Mephisto Links I think), but it's so funny I decided to show it again.

Now, to make this a real thread, do YOU have any funny rejection stories? Work, personal, sex... it's all good.




Mr Mephisto

When I was in college, one of the people in my dorm received a form rejection letter. However, the person entering the fields into the database messed up, so it appeared that everyone in the dorm was rejected in one fell swoop. "Dear Mr. Nameofdorm".

actually, there's a great new rejection hotline. so if you're at the bar, you can give that number to someone and then when they call you a few days later, it's actually the rejection hotline, and the message is funny as hell. if you google rejection hotline, you should come up with the site (i don't want post it, that would be against rules?)

hahaha, that's so awesome. Though all my rejection letters have been crippling sad.

I love the "skank ho" line.

lol, that's awesome I especially love the "Quite frankly, you scare us"

I have my rejection letter from UCLA....... but I didn't want to go there anyway. GO CAL *still hoping for CAL admission*

Worst rejection:

me: Wanno go out with me?
not to be: meh

When it's not even worth it to her to come up with a verbal reply...

My rejection letter from law school said something to the effect of "even though you obtained good results last year, we have a limited number of seats and unfortunately you did not get in".

Which was lovely, considering through a series of (largely my own) screw-ups I had a C average in law.

:/

In college I applied for a paying internship in a Congressman's office, and they called me back for an interview. Then they called me back to reschedule the interview for Friday, a few days later.

I went to the interview, and left thinking that it had gone exceptionally well. I was excited about what I figured I'd be doing that summer. After I drove home that afternoon, I checked the mail, and guess what, a little rejection letter postmarked the day before. I was pissed, and later found out that the guy that got it was a political science major and the golden boy of that department, and he had been recommended by the prof. that set the internship up. Without that, or even knowing that prof., I was just wasting my time.

Got a rejection letter from Playboy (for cartoons I submitted, you perverts). It pissed me off because it was really just a photcopied note the size of a Post It.

They didn't like me enough to warrent sending an entire 8.5" X 11" piece of paper. Dang.

I wish I could find it, there was a picture of a real application submitted by a teenager to work at mcdonalds. It was so funny, one of the few things on the internet that actually made me lol.

Edit: oh yeah the kid got a job too becase the manager or whatever loved the application so much.

That's fucking great.

Sorry to ruin the fun. It's still funny though.
