Charlie's looking to be a Pimp

This hit is a bit different from the rest. Instead of asking me to pimp his ride, Charlie's looking for me to hire him as a ride pimper.

From: Charlie

Hey Guys,

IÂ’m an ordinary car stereo installer from the east coast, (NJ) who moved out to CA for the ultimate dream, to be a custom car stereo installer. I just got done watching youÂ’re show MTV Pimp My Ride and decided to drop you guys a line. What do I have do loose right? Well everyone knows that the west coast is where itÂ’s at when it comes to custom. IÂ’ve been worken at national retail chains doing the regular deck slams (Boring) when I was back on the east coast Circuit City I went from being an installer to a manager in three years and all that was just a mess of paperwork and got away from what I was striven for being a custom installer. I know you guys are plenty busy and may even not read this e-mail but I would love to apprentice with your company I do a little custom work here and there but my area of expertise is in wiring electronics and security. I currently live about 3 hrs. north of la but am willing to relocate. Even if you do not have any openings but could drop be a line or two about the LA area and where if any is custom apprentice work may be needed in CA . Well thanks a lot for taken the time out of youÂ’re busy day to read this e-mail.
I look forward to hearing from you soon Charlie

Now seeing as I'm due to be unemployed in a bit under a month I'm not willing to bank up on bad employment mojo at the moment. So instead of leading this fellow on I'll just go straight for the photo request.

Subject: So you want to be a Ride Pimper?

Yo Charlie!

Got yo note on yo pimpinÂ’ carreer. We always lookinÂ’ fo hot dogg ride rumblers but we not like a traditional shop. We doan have the mastah/apprentice thing goin on hear. We all mastas, if you know what IÂ’m sayin.

So I caint hire u but I can at least put your ride in for some pimpin. If yo car is picked you could go through the pimp process wit us. Here’s all you gots to do. Take a picture of you and the car you want pimped. You need to be holdin a sign that says “High on SBD”. We have people hold a sign so we know they real. You wont believe how many freeks try to punk us from free email accounts.

By the way - SBD don’t mean drugs, yo. Xibit doan play dat game. “SBD” the hydraulic lift set we use wit ground effects.

Just reply to this mail with that pic and we get you set straight bro. Bonus points if u gets a hottie-girl in the pic.

Thanks fo watchin Pimp My Ride, dogg. Keep it real, yo!

Will Charlie send in a pic? Will Jim ever discover why this one sentence post somehow makes people believe that this is where they sign up for the Pimp My Ride show? Stay tuned and you'll find out!
