just a plain jerk. The vast majority of people will agree that they hate to work for or with a jerk, but what they don't realize is that they respect or listen to the “jerk” for the most part.

Marketing coordinator intrigued me in the fact that I feel that I have some of the attributes and the requirements that the position is required. Reason why I am intrigued with the marketing coordinating job is it seems that not everyday is the same role, and its fast paced, so it brings more excitement to the job.

The two most common replies that I received were “I haven’t even looked at emails” or “I forgot to write back”.

the drawings had a great big x across it written in more blood. Freaking out, we had called the cops and shut and locked every door. Two weeks had passed the police force couldn’t figure out who had killed the man, especially since there was no body to work with.
