Remember when seeking employment it is important to make a lasting
impression on the person who interviews you. Sending a follow-up letter
a day or two after your appointment is a courtesy that will cement you
in the minds of the interviewer. This guy certainly made an indelible
impression.

Mr. Sunny,
Let me take this opportunity to express my deep regret
concerning the injuries you sustained during my interview with you. Had I known
that planter was not solidly attached to the wall, I never would have attempted
to re-enact the balcony scene from Romeo & Juliet. I recall you telling me
how much you, and your wife were looking forward to having a child and …well,
there is always adoption. If there is anyway that I can help you or your lovely
wife in that regard, please do not hesitate to ask. That issue aside, I wanted
to thank you for what has to have been one of the most memorable interviews I
have been on since my name was first submitted for the prison’s work release
program.
I hope that even if you do not hire me, we can remain
friends, as I have already made copies of the keys to your office, car and
home, and returning such personal items in a ‘break up’ situation is always a
tad uncomfortable.
Now that you have been released from the hospital, perhaps
we can discuss this further over dinner tonight? I see your wife right now, is
bending over to put a ham in the oven.
Oh yeah, Larry wants some of that!
Coordially yours,
Larry Johansen
