EDITORS COMMENTS
1912: A Regretful Notice from J Waller & Co. Amid the bustling streets of London, at number 89 Aldersgate Street, stood the esteemed establishment of J Waller & Co. Known for their exceptional range of India rubber stamps and accessories for wholesale and export, their reputation for quality and innovation was unparalleled in the stationery industry. In this era of meticulous record-keeping and business efficiency, a well-designed stamp was an indispensable tool for any successful enterprise. Mr. E Myers, a hopeful applicant, had recently applied for a position at J Waller & Co., eager to contribute his skills to this esteemed company. However, the outcome of his application was not as he had hoped. The company's rigorous hiring process, which included thorough reference checks, had revealed information that did not meet their standards. With a heavy heart, J Waller & Co. sent Mr. Myers this formal notice. The card, embossed with the company's logo and intricate stencil designs, bore the following message: "Dear Mr. Myers, It is with regret that we must inform you that, after careful consideration of your application and subsequent references, we have decided not to offer you the position at J Waller & Co. We appreciate the time and effort you have invested in the application process and wish you the best of luck in your future endeavors. Yours sincerely, J Waller & Co." This historical artifact, a humble card from the past, serves as a reminder of the importance of integrity and the meticulous hiring practices that shaped the business world over a century ago.
