employer i now work for p/t? The offer is turning out to be a little fishy since they're stalling on the offer letter. I have something else in the wings that's a bit more conservative and kosher. I've accepted the offer verbally but I haven't signed anything. Now I'm starting to change my mind and I want to back out of the offer. I've worked with this person before and I should probably call them but I'd prefer email. What' s the best way to approach this and what are some good reasons for backing out. I'd lke to retain the relationship if at all possible, but I can't see right now how that's possible. Any suggesstions?
I work for this company now p/t and the job offer is f/t and more responsibility but I've recently gotten word from the inside they give dirty a new name and I don't think I want to chance it. Plus the stuff they're pulling right now before we even begin gives me pause.

Be honest and open. Everyone respects that. Its business, not frendship. The longer the wait, the worse it will get. I'd do it in person if at all possible, it shows respect.

I would talk to the person in person if you want to save any of the relationship. If he doesn't have a private office take him out for coffee. Tell him your concern and that you value the relationship but don't feel the job would be in your best interest.

I would just be honest with them and tell them that you've decided to decline their offer but you appreciate their interest.
Just tell them that as time has gone by you have changed your mind and that you've decided to look elsewhere.
