Jonas received his first job offer after three long months of searching for a job. He was so excited, he almost accepted it on the spot! But then, he remembered he was waiting for a response from another interview he had recently gone to. He asked for a few days to consider the offer and went home. He contacted the other possibility and let them know that he had received an offer. He made sure to
