Hey everyone. Sorry for the long paragraph, but I could really use some advice here. Thank you for reading.
So I have had this job lined up as a medical assistant for a dermatology practice for months now (beginning of April). I was in the process of finding places to live near the practice, and I was going to sign a place this Saturday with some roommates I found on craigslist. But just this past Thursday they sent me an email saying that they were "uncomfortable" and "disturbed" by my inquiry into how employee medical insurance was to be paid, and ended their email by withdrawing my offer. I sent them an apology email and tried to recover the situation to the best of my ability but they ignored it, so I called them. Our conversation went nowhere, as all she kept repeating was "We're not going to change our minds on this". They were incredibly rude and the whole experience was very abnormal, but alas, I have to move on. The only thing is now I have nothing to do to add to my application for my gap year. I'm trying to find other positions and opportunities for research, but it's still in the early stages. What should I put on secondaries when they start arriving? Do I simply say I have nothing at the moment but I am looking? Do I explain to them what happened? Will this reflect badly upon me if I do?
Tl;dr: I lost my gap year job due to abnormal circumstances, what do I put on secondaries?
