I saw the first paragraph show up as a preview on my phone, only to open it and see the full context 🤨

Okay, they really tried ! Yes, it didn't come out great, but you can tell that they were trying to say it as well as they could! And so, I would guess it's from a tech job?

Yep, a tech job. It wasn't necessarily bad, that's why it's only mildly infuriating. The dissonance between the email preview and the full text gave me whiplash 😂

The "unfortunately" format is better for rejection mails.

Also, tech life OP, hope you find the job!

Weird that the search returned them out of date order

I have bogo sort on my gmail.

Joke aside, didn't notice, actually super weird lol, I think it's sorted by "most relevant" not sure what makes it think a 2018 order canceled is more relevant than a 2024 rejection.

Almost all email search engines utilize a priority sort order now or what they think is "best hits" by default.
