CrazyIvan 0 #1 May 9, 2004 When I was looking for a job, I sent my Resume all over the place, this company called me a couple of times and made me some "RIDICULOUS" offers, they still send me emails from time to time, and today I got this one....I HAD TO POST IT FOR YOUR ENJOYMENT. -------- Email begins -------- 12 MONTH / CAREER OPPORTUNITY I'm looking for a few select exceptional people who I can take under my wing and teach everything I know in networking, troubleshooting, printer repair, computer repair, training, and computer consulting and in business. I would like to take one person and make an example of what I am capable of creating. Person must be available for 1 year, without pay and be financially secure, willing to invest in your own future by gaining experience you will NEVER imagine. You will work with me for 1 year, go to clients, and do everything we do in our business. You will take ALL of my training, and learn everything in level 1, 2, 3, CCNA, CCNP, and MCSE. You will be my "slave" for 12 months. You will do everything I say. I will turn you into an expert you never thought possible. I must interview you to determine if you have what it takes. I cannot take just anyone. I cannot take more than 2 people for this opportunity. Think about it. You could go to a "school" for 6 months, and pay $10,000 or worse, go to chub for 2 years and owe $17,000, and still come out a loser not even knowing how to deploy Microsoft office, and still looking for a job. Where are you going next year ? Do you even understand what this opportunity means ? Are you capable? I expect only a handful of people in the entire NYC would be acceptable to my standards for me to invest 12 months of my life to your success. I expect 99.999 percent of you who read this, will not even comprehend what I'm offering. The right person will be willing to sell his house to get in on this opportunity. Those of you who don't understand this opportunity, it's only for one reason: because you don't yet know who I am and what I am. 12 months from now, you will NOT be the same person. Give me 12 months, you WILL become capable of doing anything and everything I am able to do myself. If, after hearing this, it sounds like something that prevents you from sleeping, contact me immediately for more details. I'm about to change your life. -------- Email Ends --------__________________________________________ Blue Skies and May the Force be with you. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jumpinjackflash 0 #4 May 9, 2004 Wow, whomever this person is they really think they are d shiznit. What a load of crap! I've been consulting and working in IT for years, and ran into many that thought they were the second coming of Christ, but this one is definitly up hi. What an ignoramus. I'ts IT for god's sake. Just IT. Nothing more, nothing less. Basic human principles and investment of time/knowledge are whats going to get the big dollars. Be aggressive, pursue a route that pays well and don't be an asshole and you'll go far! Though, of course I'm sure your aware of all that Ivan. So, blah blah blah The real question is how the hell do you get rid of them? peace JackIt's a gas, gas, gas... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CrazyIvan 0 #15 May 12, 2004 Another pearl: ---- Email begins ---- 12 MONTH OPPORTUNITY - 2 choices - DAY or NIGHT I have decided to offer 2 exclusive opportunities. 1. DAY or EVENING 12 Month Exclusive Extensive Experience Training. 2. Franchise Opportunity to own an ExperienceTraining Location in another area such as Long Island, Northern New Jersey, or Queens. I have planned to offer the 12 month opportunity in two ways: ------------------- DAY PLAN: Person will be working with us Monday - Friday 10:00 am - 6:00 pm for 48 out of 52 weeks of the year. $12,000.00 fee to be paid before program starts. ------------------- NIGHT PLAN: Person will work with us both SATURDAY & SUNDAY 10:00 am - 6:00 pm, As well as 4 NIGHTS from 6:00 pm- 9:00 pm Mon thru Thursday. for 48 out of 52 weeks of the year. $12,000.00 fee to be paid before program starts. ------------------- Both programs will include ALL of our training offerings listed below, However only the day time program will include actual client appointments. Corporate clients are seldom available for weekend work. If there are any weekend projects involving migrations, cabling installation, new network installations, etc, you will definitely be involved with us on our team. We will try to get as much troubleshooting work during weekends as possible even if they would be smaller customers who are open during weekends such as retail establishments. 1st included training starts in 6 days, so if you are interested in this program, if you are financially stable, if you are available for the time periods indicated, and if you are able to pay the entire amount up front, contact me immediately, your life is about to change for the better. Free yourself from the burden of employment. The next start date will be May 30, 2004. Other dates when one could start in this program will be emailed as time goes on. The 12 Month Exclusive Extensive Experience Training will provide a qualified individual with all of our training offerings including: 1. Desktop Support Expert (12 week training) 2. Network Engineer Advanced Troubleshooting (12 week training) 3. MCSE - 2003 (full 7 exam based courses) 4. CCNA (8 week training) 5. CCNP (15 week training) 6. Work directly under my supervision, and have me available for support as needed from customer sites you are sent to. 7. As you will be working with us for 12 months, you will be assigned certain responsibilities, and depending on how well you complete the 12 month program, we will make you an offer to come on board as a full time paid employee, or possibly a franchisee and own your own location of our consulting and training business. In addition to the above training, the individual will work with us full time and be sent to clients to do computer consulting, cabling installations, troubleshooting printers, networks, installations, repairs, and other consulting projects we may have during the 12 months of enrollment. A candidate has emailed me the following: "Since you already have printers, computers, software and routers on site, the opportunity would cost triple that of chubb. (in which at chubb you only devote 5 hours a day 5 times a week for 6 months of your life with only a laptop" "Plus, unlike Chubb, you have actual clients. But since you do not have to actually do much work at chubb, and all of the tests are open book and based on braindumps (which is sad but true), I would say your opportunity would be worth at least $30000 per every 3-4 months. Which is almost as close to devry." The above is very much in-line with my plan. The training industry has become a disgrace, and no one who comes out of the courses knows anything pertaining to real world networks. Like my favorite Metallica rock song, it's "sad but true" Further, once a person has completed the 12 month training, there exists an opportunity for the person to become a franchisee and become self-employed in the networking training profession and own an experience training location and can earn over 6 figures from the first year providing escalated level 3 support to corporate clients as well as providing exclusive experience training courses. Further compensation exists when placing any of "your" trained technicians as any of our corporate clientele. The cost of the 12 Month Exclusive Extensive Experience Training will be $18,000 however, I will be offering the first 2 people in this program, a price of only $12,000 to be paid as one payment before training begins. If you have already taken ANY training with us, I am willing to apply all funds you've paid to date, and apply them toward this program. The cost of the Franchisee program will depend on location chosen, size of premises, and other factors. It is estimated at approx. $75,000 to $100,000 franchise cost. We would setup everything including the office/construction, equipment, and entire training program. It will be completely turn-key. The only requirements will be financial stability and technical experience to teach the training exactly as I want it done, exactly as it has been done this past 2 years. Obviously the first franchised location will be at least 12 months from now. In the meantime, I plan to deploy extensive marketing to the corporate world about our training, and depending on the response, we may consider opening a second location in one of the nearby areas. I will be looking for qualified experienced technicians who have taken at least my network engineer training or desktop support training to teach the courses at the other location. From this September, I will not be teaching my courses full time. I am currently open to interview qualified experienced technicians to determine if they meet my standards for becoming a part of my team. If you are interested in more information about this program, contact me, and we can schedule a personal meeting at my office. Let me know which time/day is convenient for you. I can provide you with all details and answer all your questions. Sincerely, ---- Email Ends ----__________________________________________ Blue Skies and May the Force be with you.
