Time 11.13 am. Place, driving to HEB. Phone rings.

- Hi Ammar? This is (---) from Booz Allen recruiting.
-- yes .. Ammar speaking.
- Well, sorry for not coming back to you yesterday, but I was waiting to get all the information I needed.
-- Not a problem.
- I was informed that we wont extend you an offer.
-- ok ..
(silence)
-- wont?
- yes, wont.
-- Do you have any feedback?
- no.
-- well thank you very much.
- Thank you too.
(Phone call is over. Ammar a bit confused. Ammar speeds up and hunks on everyone in the strt.)

----------------------------------
Time 12.49 pm. Place, my bed watching Two and a Half Men. Phone rings.

- Hi, Ammar? This is ( ---- ) from Booz Allen recruiting services.
-- Hi!
- Well, I talked to you earlier, and I did not have any feedback.
-- aha ?
- well, I just wanted to say that the team did have a positive feedback about your interview.
-- but?
- the team decided to hold back on giving offers to any entry level consultant for this quarter; however, we liked you and keeping you in mind. I would like you to keep in touch with me, and when start extending offers we will see where you are and such.
-- Well I appreciate you calling me back and letting me know. I am probably signing an offer soon; however, I will be open to listen to what you have in the future.
- Well, keep in touch.
-- Definitely.
- Thanks
-- Thanks

(Ammar is confused but not as depressed any more!)
