hi all
i was chatting recently with my boss about pharmacy schools, and he ended up emailing me a copy of one of his letters of rec that he wrote for me. i told him not to send it, because i felt i shouldn't really be reading it. however, it was sent to me so i read it.
when i opened it, i nearly laughed. the letter was probably a max of 5 sentences (that might be generous) saying that i worked under him for such and such years and that he recommends me. can we say WTF!?!? i wanted to cry.
i know that he should be writing one of my letters since i have been out of school for a few years now, however, i won't get in (and haven't!!!) with letters like that...
any suggestions? how should/can i tell him tactfully that IT SUCKED A$$!!!??? how should i approach the situation so that next time i ask him to write my letters, he will do an awesome job?
also, one quick question.. for those of you that have been out of school for more than a few years, whom did you get to write your letters of rec for you?
thanks!
