Not "unhireable", just not eligible for rehire. Point well taken, but like I said to the other guy, I'm glad that other employers were a little more understanding and could see the situation for what it was. At the end of the day it was a broken two-week notice with extenuating circumstances. If someone won't hire me because of that and ignore plenty of other employers who will give me stellar recommendations - oh well.
