Just making the best use of my dinner break.

Hi Mr. Stritzke,

I've been trying to get an interview at REI for about three years now and have been unsuccessful. I've applied online numerous times, networked with REI BPs and Store Managers on LinkedIn for similar advice, and have delivered a resume in person here in Denver to no avail.

I've been an ETL for Target for over four years. I love what I do and have never received below "excellent" on my annual reviews. I'd love nothing more than to have an opportunity to interview for a position in your company and to align my life passions (e.g. the outdoors) with my career passions (i.e., leadership).

This is technically an "Ask Me Anything," so may I send my resume to you? I wouldn't waste your time if I wasn't serious and knew I couldn't be a great asset to the REI team.

Thanks, and thanks for taking care of your team on Thanksgiving!!!

Haha, wow I can't believe this! Thank you so much Mr. Stritzke! I'll be sure to email my resume as soon as I am off of work tonight.

More credit than sense.

Colin- What, if any, are your favorite Sci-fi/fantasy books?
