|| Shameful. The email address this came from displayed the following: "****** DELETE, [COMPANY]/731 LEXIN" My mailbox thought it was spam! Oh, and I love how you would like me to keep your company in mind for the future. You turned me down, and you want me to come back asking for more? Most companies have the decency to lie and say they'll keep me in mind, but you won't even trouble yourself with that one. No, you want me to keep you in mind, to regularly check your website just in case there's a chance I might be of some use to you. I don't think so.
