    As someone in a professional field:

    If all your friends show up for the interview, or are calling and harassing me prior to interview, I'm not taking you seriously. I'm wondering why you don't feel you can rise above the rest of the candidates by yourself.

    Call me cynical, but when I interview applicants, I'm interested in the applicants skills and abilities, not how much their friends like them. Bringing your social life into my job site is distracting all of us and unrelated to our work. I'm not impressed.

    Again, my thoughts as someone involved in these processes.


    That said, good luck with the job hunt!

    ^ thats true, but we can twist this from harassing the dealer to showing off Jen's possible clientele or book of business. The dealership is in the business to sell, and an increase in demand for that dealership should be attractive. I guess it's all in the execution.

    This is where I work. What job are you appplying for? A truck meet might work out, the dealership is always putting scion events and meets together.... so our management might be into it, even though santa monica isn't a big truck town

    Yea harrasment before you start work is not a good idea. But if you get the job I'm sure they would be interested in setting up a meet. Unfortunately I have too much going on at work to set something up. Pm me with your info and I can see what's going on I know they need a cashier but the 1st isn't that far away soo maybe they are willing to wait.
    For everyone else I am the Fleet Manager and if you or anyone you know wants a truck I'm glad to help or at least get you info on pricing and so forth

    Thanks! I really appreciate it! :D

    Of course I want to make as much as possible, it all depends on what I'm qualified to do! If it's not too far (like Aaron said it might be) I would be more than happy to send a resume in! Thanks again

    My eyes tremble of delight as I see this true road of passion unfold. :DWell perhaps the ones that just met you.

    It would be Awesome to have you migrate from the East to the West. Why might you ask? Cause the West is the best. I mean shit Jen. Its January and guess what? I can rock some shorts and flip flops in the city. Then drive 1hr to snowboard the mountains. . .

    I talk to Aaron enough to know that you two are simply a Tale to tell. TW history is what it is . . . Wish you the best Jen.



    Jen, I wish you the best and all of the Socal TW members wish you the same.
