dodged a bullet

kinda glad I didn't get the Ireland thing now. Check this out.

Regrettably I will be unable to accept the position at this time due to the high cost of obtaining a work permit coupled with the expense of last minute air fare. I cannot express how much I appreciate your consideration of me for this position and I deeply regret any inconvenience that this causes you. It would have been a pleasure to work and learn with you. Best of luck in the future.

Sincerely,

Katy Mason

Here's what I got back from him this morning

Ok katy. I suggest you put your finances in place before you wast anyone elses time towing backwards and forwards with e-mails and phone calls etc. I have spoken with other people whom you have being in contact with and it appears you had the same story for them as well. Sincerely Oliver

Ummmmmm WTF? First, He's the first person I've spoken with about going out of the country. I do believe he's a liar and somewhat of a cheat since he refused to help me with the work permit crap. Needless to say, I'm not going to Ireland anytime soon and I'm seriously pissed that he's insulting me when (i thought) I was polite and professional. grrrr
