I'm in love with "JACK COLA". Don't know why... hehe. Great commercial. Very funny.

The Union Phone Number (1-877-684-3864) leads to an automated voice service. I didn't leave a message.

Applied for a job as a sales associate via theunioncareersSPLATlive.com . Also added theunioncareers on my MSN Messenger account. Will contact them that way if that option becomes available.

runners

an application is up for runners http://www.wiredinsider.com/repomen/ these people need to evade capture from hunter players for 25 days, most likely applying for a repo man job will get you contacted about hunting.

sent in my application to be a runner. i have been playing arg's since the beast, it will be interesting to be on the other side.

Ahhh I wish I had time to take off to go apply for that! I guess I just have to stick to the chasing instead of the chase. Can't wait for this to start! Very HappyVery HappyVery Happy

Also, I agree the Jack cola commerical was quite amusing. Laughing

Hunter signup is available on the wiredinsider.com/repomen site. They have the cutest icon for "don't chase the volunteers with chainsaws!"

http://movieviral.com/2010/02/23/repo-men-the-union-hr-dept-now-hiring/ has the picture in case the site changes again.

Is it bad that hunting a human being has been a long-standing dream of mine?

Is there an unfiction irc channel yet? I'm currently in a general IRC but we'd like to merge them if we've got multiple channels.

[TRAILHEAD] The Union Cares
pursuit

Wired and universal have a game of pursuit ARG going online yesterday.
Trace and find four live persons with artificial organs that they have defaulted payments on.

Rules and information here
http://www.wiredinsider.com/repomen/


Cash Prizes for the ones that solve and find individuals.

The heart is on a train to NOLA and arrives about 1:00p.

Good luck

Trout thanks!
