Short stay visa for Italy denied at the italian consulate in Los Angeles

Hello to everybody this is my story : I live in Los Angeles I'm a legal resident of The Us but a citizen of CoLombia so in order to visit my friend in Italy i had to apply for a Visa C short stay tourist visa. I went for the interview two weeks ago beside the fact that the person was rude and mean i showed all the documentation they ask for plus i had to sent extra documents by fax. After a week I got a call from them sayin that my visa was denied fo two reasons: first the called the place where i was workng and they said that i don't work here anymore which is true because a couple of days after i apply for the visa another company with an higher position and better pay offered me the job so i moved . Second despite i had amoust double the money they require for the twoo week stay they said that my average from the last 12 moths(?????) was too low . For these two reasons they denied my visa . Now I don;'t kno what to do . I do Have the letter from the new job and an account that i use more than the one i used to apply for the visa . what shuold I do next? Some friend of mine suggested me to send them a letter where i explain my reasons and ask for another interview . What everybody thinks> thanks for your help .. What a disappointment it is just a vacation...
