Kinda ridiculous.
Firstly ...... you didn't get rejected by that other place ..... you just weren't selected for the position ......

Secondly, not having a meeting with your boss may be a good thing ...... I have found that most bosses don't like firing people but, do enjoy giving them raises .....

Ugmm….OK.

Actually this would be a problem even more so in a "second" or "third" world where bandwidth is much more limited. I have the option to fix it, just have to call up the provider and say "crank us up from 1G to 10G." So, more like a first world rant.

Well if he told her he was an engineer she probably thought he drove a train.

Nah. It was a colleague; an electrical engineer, so it was a pretty good dig. I was even a little butthurt.
