Candidate Forum Info

Submitted by KTB on Mon, 2007/01/29 - 4:52pm.

Some comments on a few of the resumes:

Josh Jordan - A Lawn mowing business might qualify you for a title of County Maintenance Director.

Scheduling appointments.
Purchasing tools and materials for landscaping jobs.
Bidding on jobs for future work.

Josh Lowe - Many of us are terrible at spelling (including myself), but please learn to use a word processor with spell check (avialable - available)

Sharon Cawood - One picture will do. We don't need to see 3 different angles of your jaw line. Also, please replace the 3.3 MB picture from your website with a smaller version and if you are going to rip off your husband's website, at least change the background color of the Tennessee seal so that it matches your website.

To the rest of the candidates, good luck, and by that I mean I hope you are related to, or personally know one or more of the current office holders.
