My new job
« on: January 02, 2012, 02:24:11 PM »
Hi all, sitting back in my camp chair on the banks of the Murray, I thought it was as good a time as any to let you know about my new job.

As of this time next week, I'll be sitting at my new desk inside the marketing department at ARB head office in Kilsyth.

I've been lucky enough to score a position which, amongst a lot of other things, includes a social media aspect that'll require me to get involved in a range of 4wd and camping related forums (like this one) :) on behalf of ARB.  So, keep an eye out for a new ARB username in the coming weeks and remember, be nice to the new guy! :).

Cheers, Sam.

Sam don't be swayed be these freeloading swines . You have to work for what you get . I'm prepaired to put in to help you in our joint venture
Heres the deal ARB fully kit out my NS Paj in return I will park it outside pubs around Aus to promote the range .  As 4WDers  have been known to take a  :cheers: or 2 as they wonder past the Display /Working Rig they will mentaly make a list of stuff they want . All I need is the FULL  NS Range  of kit Ho & the expences card to cover 1 or 2 things that may crop up as I go .
I could make the rig avalible now to be kitted up so you can really WOW the bosses when you start ,arrr when is that anyway  ???  details anyway .

Sam, well done on the new job. It's always good to have a job that aligns with your hobby.

Speewa, you should have asked for a beer allowance. It would only be fair seeing as your promoting their product in your time.

Speewa, it's not kitting out the 4by that would hurt, it would be keeping up the VB while you travel!! lol
