Hey tom i was at school the other day and someone was talking about how you could go job shadow someone for a day to see what they do at thier job and to see if u would like a job like that. so then i got to thinking what would be cooler than to follow tom around the whole day and to see what he does at his job. So what i am asking is if you would be willing to let me come down to agd and follow u around and see what u do at your job. Its ok if u say no but i just wanted to try. Besides if u say yes i can try out all the cool new products and then ill buy them. and then my friends will buy them and then everyone will buy them and agd will rule the earth or close. anyway let me know if u would consider this.

My job is much more borring than most people think. I spend every afternoon on the phone and late at night I test stuff. Two nights ago I spent 4 hours putting one paintball at a time into the breach of a gun and firing them into a net. Not real exciting. If you want to come down I can arrange it but you would only really get to see the afternoon stuff.

still got to see all the details with the guidance consuler but i would love to come see the factory and spend the afternoon following you around. What times would u be available to do this? i am going to be on vacation from feb 22nd to march 3rd so anytime after that i could work with. but ill work around ur schedule because you are probally pretty busy. thanks for accepting tom you're the best!
Snooky gives a big smile:D

Tom you could have a future employee day, and have snooky, me and some others come with. You can enslave me, Im a good worker, that doesnt ask questions and eats very little. But then again if i did go id have to buy a bunch of stuff, and I would end up breaking a few things and anoying you. Im just joking around unless you like snookys idea, and want to bring some others with. I dont expect you to say yes to me or anything. Because if I ever own a big bussiness like AGD I wouldnt want to have a 14 yearold following me for a day. Hope I dont sound rude but i did have to ask, and again I do expect you to say yes.

ME TOO!!!ME TOO!!!I wanna go!!I live closer to chicago than slipknot does,so it would be easy to pick my up...i would ask for much,maybe an emag or 2,or 3,j/k,ide have to tell everyone about AGD and then you will rule the world,and everyone would play,and WDP would be bankrupt and so would WGP..and you would be our leader,and ill be your drone,

I hope all the other people going to AGD (including me) doesnt make Tom change his mind about letting snooky go. And if you do not want the rest of us to go I hope you let snooky go and just not let us.

ok update time:

The mentor day is March 13th and that is the only day school will allow you to do it. i need the address for agd and the phone number. On the phone number the guidance counsler will be calling all the numbers and checking the information out. So if u want them to call the main office u would just have to tell them if a guidance counsler from harvard high school calls its for a visitor on the 13th of march named Josh Chaplo. If there are any questions or u cant do it on the day the sooner to say so the better because if u can't do it i have to locate someone else. U can post response here or u can send to my email as listed below. What time do u start work and what time would i be there from and till? Thanks again Tom! congrats on over 200 btw.

Snook,

Figure on coming by Monday. Be here at 11:30 and my girlfriend Carol will bring you to lunch and I'll meet you there. The day ends around 6:00pm so you can figure that in. You will get to see a typical day but lunch is the most fun.
