Just thank them for the time but you have selected another position. Don't explain unless they hire you as a management coach. Is your anger petty and spoiled?

Just thank them for the time but you have selected another position. Don't explain unless they hire you as a management coach.
Is your anger petty and spoiled? In absolute terms, yes, obviously.
E.g., I regularly saw a guy working at a rental car desk and commented on his always sunny disposition. He said he came to the country* with the promise of an IT job but it was a lie. Now, he can't get out and his boss told him to always smile or he'd be jobless (and thus homeless with a high likelihood of starvation).
Are you Spoiled, Petty? Yes, but many of us are.
Doesn't mean you should take the job. Just be grateful for your circumstances.
*I won't divulge the country. Don't bother guessing.
