Dear Mr. Harris,

Thank you for your application of the 17th of Nov. 2007 regarding the non-existent position of Safety Officer.
Whilst acknowledging your contribution to the success and popularity of the TT over the years as well as your knowledge and in some cases direct contact with the Mountain Course, there were contra-reasons persuading us that your offer must be refused in this instance.
To be more specific these reasons are:
1. Unfortunately you are a Colonial and in particular a New Zealander, if you had been an Australian it would have weighed heavily in your favour.
2. You are far too well informed as to the internal running of this event to remain objective.
3. Your annoying habit of telling the truth.
4. Your hair colouring which would clash with our corporate identity and logo.
5. Many of your known associates and sympathisers appear in the black books of the ACU or DTL.
6. You have too much hands-on practical business experience to fulfill a government sponsored position.
7. Your small number of serious injuries we consider to be insufficient for such a responsible position.
8. We have not forgotten those T-Shirts.
9. You do not fit our profile of young gun, go getters, breath of fresh air, new wave generation. Multiple TT winners are a bit old hat now; they have brought in the crowds for 100 years but now is the age of the newcomers, virgins if you like.

We trust that we have your understanding and appreciate that we did take 10 minutes out of our busy schedule to consider your unacceptable request.

Yours Faithfully,

XXXX XXXXXXX (name withheld for personal safety)

Junior Clerk
