    I am happy to help you choose the best applicant by hyper-criticising their application and cv if that helps?

    Are you saying that your phone autocorrected a word that you spelled correctly into a word that doesn't exist?

    On another note do you write press releases for Craig Thomson?

    Overheats with a 4 core radiator due to the extreme power, next step is a custom 5 core.

    It started out as the workshop hack while other project was in the paint shop. /insert boat ramp shot/ Then things just kind of got out of hand and the next thing he knew the project got sold off and the hack got the works. /insert 3/4 boat ramp shot/. "yeah I've got to thank my Girlfriend/Parents for being so supportive during the build" /insert owner and car shot/
    I haven't had it at the track/Dyno yet but I reckon it will run/pull XXXXX. Owners next mods are XXXXX

    Do I have a job yet? I can copy and paste that shit like a motherfucker.
