Day crew homie. Save this for them.

As someone who has very little education of the Bible, I am enjoying all these verses.

This.

I graduated with a litte over $500 to my name, but the plus side was that I paid cash for my tuition and living expenses while in school.

Although I work in the public sector, I was easily able to accumulate a healthy level of savings (for my lifestyle/Non-OT baller) not long after.

I can't begin to explain how rewarding my sacrifices during undergrad felt hearing all my friends whine about the debt they accrued from bar tabs, rent, and books.

High Point is to handguns as Steel Reserve is to beer.

I wish I has a dollar for every dead thug I have stood over that brought one to a gun fight.

Why do I feel guilty or like I am some how cheating the system?

Short story: I have been trying to attain a competitive position within my company for the past 3 or so years. I have unsucessfully interviewed more than a few times for the opening/similar openings only to watch applicants that I trained or who had far less education, experience, and training advance.

It's been frustrating, but I work in the public sector. Nepotism, popularity, minorities, and being a "yes" man are highly desirable qualitites.

I was approached by someone from a different public sector who is influential in my field and ultimately over sees all of the work/product that my company is responsible for monitoring and told that when I applied again to give him a call.

My question is, how should I phrase my request? I respect the person a lot and don't want to come off as entitled or demanding of any influence he may be able to impose.

I drafted an email to send and attached a copy of my CV/resume. Should I come out and ask him for a letter or should I just let him know that I will be applying again and would like to get advice/guidance from him in the hope that he makes a few phone calls on my behalf?

Hey Jack, you rang!?!

Planning to propose to my girlfriend that day and need an educated guess from you experts if it will be a 2:30pm kickoff. Trying to squeeze this little chore into my schedule.

And before anyone ask, I am not doing it in Tiger Stadium or anywhere near campus.

I had a good run, but all good things must come to an end right? The closer it gets the more I keep telling myself this type of thing has happened to better men than me.

:banghead:

Any insight is appreciated.

Hey Jack- There is only room for one of us on this board, beat feet and get the hell out here son!

Yea, I tried that last year and it failed. Two tarps and a cover were no match. Rusted out my starter and cost me a ton of money in other repairs.

Looking to store it somewhere covered, not necessarily indoors.
