Dear Potential Employer:
If you are reading this, you are most likely in the background-check phase of my pending employment. This is a very good sign in that you probably wouldn't be checking my background unless you were interested in hiring me.
It is also good that you've found this blog because it allows me to defend myself against certain items that may have been discovered as a result of your Google search on my name.
Even though these articles appear to be incriminating at first glance, they indeed do not tell the whole story. Therefore, I would like to take this opportunity to dispel any confusion regarding my past by addressing these issues head on.
Here are some of the stories you may be wondering about:
| Jeff Lee, 35, Stoney Fork Road, Corbin - First-degree trafficking in a controlled substance and harboring a vicious animal It wasn't my stuff man. Some guy just asked me to hold his backpack, I had no idea what was in it. I was framed. There was an earthquake. A terrible flood. Locusts! Oh, and I'm sorry... but a Pit Bull/Rottweiler mix is not a vicious animal. Jeff Lee says he deserved to be jailed for the offense he committed All right let's be honest... who hasn't gotten drunk in Bintang and stolen a car. What's the big deal. I was young and Asian and experimenting. It happens to everybody.
Jeff Lee cited with four counts of animal cruelty I don't actually have anything to add to that. That quote explains it perfectly.
Two Winona Men Charged In OD Death This one wasn't me, but I just wanted to make sure you didn't accidentally read it too fast and not notice he had three parts to his name - like all killers do. See that? "Jeffrey Lee Frey" It's not me. Never murdered, manslaughtered or abetted anyone. |
I hope these clarifications remove any doubt of whether or not I would make a good candidate for employment with your company. I can assure you that if I am hired, I will not cause any embarrassment to your fine name. Nor will I ever bring my Pit-Weiler "Fang" on site.
Best Regards,
Jeffrey (not Frey) Lee

If anything, this will improve your chances. Because we can all relate. And the fact that you say you deserve to be jailed for the crime of being Asian--well, that's commendable.
I feel certain this can do nothing but help. Nice move.
That is funny and I sure hope no one believes you. I do remember the time you were working so many hours on two jobs, started to doze, and hit a mail box. You cannot fault anyone willing to work that many hours.
Hey, I never knew your last name was Frey! ;-D
Am I sure I still want to be associated with such a villain? I have no problem with the aiding and abetting but animal cruelty????
people in the sun - Really, who hasn't experimented with "Asianism" as a teen?
ed - It's gotta help. I believe in preemptive damage control.
bill - What the? How did you manage to squeeze that reference in here? You truly are the master Bill.
jd - NO! You've got it all wrong. I'm not the Frey! I'm not the Frey!
babs - Come on, you saw my reason. I overslept!
The things we have to do. Englebert Humperdink had to do the same thing...
Well, if it DOES affect your job chances, you just might need to change the old name... sounds like anyone named Jeff Lee is up to no good....
er, at least MOST Jeff Lee's that is.
Let's just hope they don't read the rest of the blog.
I'm going to be 40 in January and I still haven't had a chance to be "young and Asian and experimenting."
Please tell me it's not too late.
Well I was going to say something witty about experimenting with being young and Asian, but I see I've long since been beaten to the punch on that one :)
I suppose this is one of the benefits of having a common name -- those searching never really know if it's *YOU* or just your name doppelganger.
ve - At least he didn't have Google in those days... you know, with a last name like that!
maureen - True story... several years ago a Jeff Lee of my same age was being arrested at a local hotel when he pulled out a knife and flashed it at the cops. Then, in an attempt to escape, he jumped off the balcony to the floor below - but broke his leg instead. It was in all the papers that weekend. The next Monday everyone at my job was relieved to see me walk in without a broken leg. Apparently I'm one of the few intelligent Jeff Lees left around here.
yellojkt - At least they'd know who they're getting. No doubt about that!
janna - Well, you do have be careful what you try. Unfortunately, after experimenting with being Asian, I ended up with Lee-sians.
michelle - Good point. I'm going to blame anything bad they find out about me on the other Jeff Lees.
"I was young and Asian and experimenting."
BWAHAHAHAHA!
Glad to hear that you haven't abetted anything, as of late.
Hahahha....oh this has me wondering what will happen if I Google my name.
Let us know what happens!!!
"Lee-sians"...
Accghhh!!
That sound you just heard was me groaning out loud, all the way over here in Michigan.
LOL!
Very entertaining. I liked this.
And no, I'm not trying to sound like a spam comment.
Funny post- a hilarious attempt to explain one's situation to a potential applicant
