A couple times now at my current job they've hired someone, only to have them just not show up on their agreed first day with no communication. I'm guessing they just got a different job they like more or something, but still, I'd imagine one usually at least tells people not to expect you, under that circumstance?

Just to play devil's advocate, do employers typically tell us slobs when they hire somebody else? Hardly ever.
