LONDON - Job rejections are never pleasant, but they can sometimes be useful. Maybe you get sent some feedback about where you went wrong, or perhaps some advice on how to improve for next time. What's less useful, however, is a blunt text message containing an emoji.

The texts were sent in error and were intended for our manager, not the candidate." Mashable has reached out to Dixon. BONUS: Signs you're reading too much into instant messages with emoji
Don't get us wrong, Emily Ratajkowski looks good in a two-piece. In fact, the supermodel's come up with so many ideas for mixing and matching her bikinis, we can barely keep up. But while vacationing with her friends Bella Hadid, Elsa Hosk, Hannah Ferguson, Lais Ribeiro, Hailey Baldwin, and Rose Bertram in the Bahamas, Emily pulled a style switch-up. Her red Solid & Striped design was fitted and sleek, with not a cutout in sight, and the plunging neckline was a touch sexy - very simple, very effortless, very Baywatch. Emily completed her look with a dainty chain necklace, allowing us full focus on her one-piece. While clearly, most of her pals prefer classic tops and bottoms, Emily is making

She remains in Broward County Jail. Uber told The Herald its drivers undergo a complete criminal history screening that includes

Police sources involved with the investigation told TMZ on Wednesday that Brady's jersey could be on the team equipment truck that bolted out of NRG Stadium after the Patriots' victory. Although it's a long-shot theory, law enforcement officials are "hopeful" that the jersey is on the truck. The Patriots sent an 18-wheel truck to Houston for the Super Bowl, and that truck was set to return to Massachusetts after the game was over.
