OH MY CRAP YES! I was named a finalist for the job contest thing I'm in at 8 a.m. this morning!

Young & Free South Carolina powered by South Carolina Federal Credit Union (http://www.youngfreesc.com) <--- I'm Josh on there, if you didn't know.

Pleeeeeease please please please take a minute to vote for me! Tell everyone you know and have ever met to vote for me too! If everyone here manages to get me like 5 votes, then I'll win by a landslide for sure!

PLEASE don't try to cheat by voting multiple times. They could and probably would disqualify me for that.

If I win, they are gonna pay me $29,000, give me a camcorder, a laptop, and a car with free gas and insurance for a year! =D I reeeeeeeeeeally want this job and you can help me out for reals, yo.

P.S. if I win I will make Final Fantasy related blog entries hahaha. =)

Private ballot. They are gonna update us every couple days with the number of votes cast so far, but that's it until they pick a winner.

Driving to my state's capital today to interview people as part of a "Challenge" to the final 3: "What do young people really want from their financial institution?" in the form of a 3 minute youtube video. If you feel like answering, you can. Maybe I'll use some quotes or something to spice up the video. Send me your name and age in a pm to go with it, if you want.

P.S. - by "young people" they are targeting 18-25 year olds.

If I was American I'd probably help you with that answer but I don't have a clue what kind of lifestyle things would affect your average guy from the States.

squiike
03-25-2009, 06:25 PM
I'm actually against this kind of thing. I think the best and most deserving contestant should win, not the one that is coolest, has most friends recruiting or getting huge internet boards help to vote for something they dont even have an opinion about.

After thinking a little about both sides, i decided to vote for you. Cause at this age its probably come to the face where your opponents would do the same as you did here.

Good luck bud, tell us how your car works out for ya when you get it :)

Are you serious?! It was on the radio in OHIO?!

Linus
03-27-2009, 08:15 PM
Ok they dropped a little notice saying they had around 1,000 votes and no contestant has 400. So I have maximum 399 and minimum 201. I think I need more, what do you think?
