I did this a couple of months ago--got a second, could-not-turn-it-down
offer after I'd already accepted the first. I felt bad because the first
company was going to be a great job and seemed like really nice people.
The recruiter HUNG UP ON ME after I told her.
I tried to think charitable thoughts.
All you can do is be honest and let them know that you're making the
decision that's best for you. If they're honest, too, they'll understand. If
not, then that's their bad karma.
