My Zeal
I didn't understand why I loved skateboarding/Longboarding so much until I watched "Dogtown and Z-Boys". This movie meant so much to me because I had no idea how skateboarding evolved. I started skateboarding as a youngster from riding a skateboard that was in messy department store. It was so natural to me the way I glided across the department store floor. From that moment on I knew what wanted for christmas. I didn't know much about skateboarding at the time so everything I learned I taught myself. I remember now that my passion for skateboarding soon came to an end from lack of encouragement and knowledge. My department store board was no good. I hated how I would fly off the board when a crack or pebble was in my path. Being the only Black kid in my neighborhood the skateboarded was also a little discouraging. I had no one to with. Now I have the resources , knowledge and money for my hobby. Wheel bite is no longer an issue. Back then the problem was the small wheels and now I roll on 70mm 80a sector nine wheels which means no more wheel bite. I developed my style of riding and now I want a board more suitable for my riding experience. This year I cant wait to get my hands on the loaded Tan Tien. Special shout outs to all the the Z-Boys and skaters worldwide. Skate on !!!

In Search of A Job
Currently, I am looking for a part time job. Recently, I received a call from break point marketing and scheduled my first interview wednesday. I was hype !!! During the interview I was asked if I had any prior sales experience and I replied yes. I currently work for North American Power. The guy wasn't so interested in the job but was delighted that I have sales experience. He spoke a little about the job that caught my interest and sounded like something I wanted to do. The interview ended shortly after on a good note. The guy said he would give me a call to schedule a second interview which he secretary did.
So after a long and tiring job search I finally landed something that could potentially generate some income for myself. But here is the catch. After doing some much needed research about the business I found out that it is all commission without a base salary. I said to myself ok not so bad since I think of myself as a fairly decent salesman. Than I dig a little deeper about the business.
Turns out the company is on ripoffreport.com and the guy that interviewed me, Pierre Marcella is allegedly accused of fraud, sexual harassment, and unprofessional acts against employees. Bottom line,this has been a rude awakening in my pursuit of happiness and financial success. I still have an interview on saturday to discuss my job opportunity with the company. Am I gonna miss it ? No, I am not gonna let go of this opportunity just cause of someone"s experience with the same guy that interviewed me. If u want to check out the report go to the website and enter report #641271.
