<prompt> Human: Update to this post: Congratulations to ushoesafe who correctly guessed several of the reasons. Got an update today, the following all apply: 1. Youre a better friend than that2. You ruined it by talking about money3. You seemed unappreciative by making it about money, should have been more excited4. It shouldnt be about the money here5. There are other people in the office I need to take care of before you, did you ever think about that! Its not all about you. 6. current employee didnt even start at that! note: hire was four years ago with similar experience7. After all Ive done for you! So anyway. Yeah. Were both in a cool off period before I figure out next move. Ill continue to post updates.  <response>: Congrats on your new job hunt! Seriously, good for you to be able to look at this in black and white and not take it personally. The other person, on the other hand, will probably not be like that.
