MIght I suggest, for future reference, that any form letter   rejection letter  responses to inquiries about positions in your company be amended to read as follows:

 Thank you for your interest in Sylvan.  Unfortunately, one of the requirements at Sylvan is that you be a qualified teacher  available during the day.
   Again, thank you for inquiring.

I only make this suggestion to point out that I do, actually, possess the necessary qualities, am completely competent, fit and legally entitled to tutor, and am not below a fixed standard, willing to fulfill your conditions, able to pass an examination or take an oath and more than capable of making myself available.

Unless, of course, you actually meant to use the word certified instead of qualified.  Then, unfortunately, I am absolutely uninterested.

Thank you.

I worry for you that maybe this is one of those "slow burn" "back burner" "unresolved" "slow leak" kind of issues that you need to work through. Some *real* bitterness there. Perhaps you need to come for tea on Friday. :-)
