Smeagol Never Stops
Not really a story, but I went by my parents' house, they seem to be doing a lot better, JJ informed me that Dad has finally learned to ignore the siren call of the crackpipe, and things are going well there... Mom has been off it for a while now, Dad about 2 months... I was happy for them, though a tad sad that the stories had ended, I mean I still have some but they are over...
But not for Smeagol!
Besides getting paid Friday, and then borrowing money on Saturday from my mom in order to purchase a gift for her because he did not want to take it out of his own check, and despite the fact that he promised my dad that he would bring by the main course for their Christmas dinner, a large ham (We should all by now see what is coming, how in the world would Smeagol be able to lift up a 20 pound ham), Smeagol decided to take her money yet again and not show up. No Merry Christmas, no nothing. What a piece of shit. I am going to start on the Smeagol and Angela stories this week, and hash up some more of my Dad and my Mystical Retard stuff too... good times.
Anyway, I thought I might post a few different scams this week, kind of jump around a little bit... let me know what you think.
Bishopston Trading Company (1)
So for this one it is one of those scams where they send you a job application and want you to cash these checks and then send them money on it... and keep 10% for commission. I forwarded this email from my real account and answered back that I really needed the job
because my ass hurt. Sounds simple enough, though I wonder how this scam really works, because:
1. What's to stop me from just cashing the check and keeping the money?
2. What's to stop me from cashing the check and making sure it goes through alright before sending them a dime (bag)?
Anyway, scammer = black, me = red, thoughts = blue

I would like to take up a position in your company, as this reverse cowboy is very taxing on my sphincter. Tell me what you need to get this show on the road.

Why would you email someone back after getting a request for employment like this? If this is what hiring managers want, count me in!

Mr. Rhodes I understand that I am on commission, I am glad that having a payment agent on hand is going to help with some of the problems that "checks equity line of credit credting of credit card or etrade account" can cause. I have answered your questions below, I hope you find them sufficient for employment in your company.
Can I have a free t-shirt with the company logo on it? If not I understand, I just figured I would help drum up business here in the United States. I would also like to express my amazement at the fact that you are the CEO of the company and also the hiring manager, it shows you really care about the people you hire.
Yours, Semore Butts
