Texas Man Offers Up Body and Name Change for a Career with VirtualAutoBuying

Austin, TX, August 28, 2009 --(PR.com)-- Texas is in a rare situation during these economically trying times, they’re still creating jobs in the private sector. As evident by driving just about any road, in this great state, you’ll see hoards of out of state license plates. Individuals and families are flocking to Texas, most seeking refuge from their last jobless home. With the influx of new Texans, it brings opportunity to both individual and employer. However, the employer’s prosperity of greater choice and cheaper labor means more competition for job seekers.

Many hopeful job seekers are playing the numbers game, sending out resumes and canned emails as quick as the new job ads pop-up. Then, there are people like Derrick Rosas of Seguin, TX, who prefer to think outside the box. Mr. Rosas sent an email to VirtualAutoBuying.com seeking employment. The email title read, “My body – My name – Whatever it takes for a job”. Mr. Rosas goes on to offer up his entire body as a canvas for advertisement, his willingness to change his name, and as he puts it, “whatever it takes for a job”. “Well, Derrick sure got our attention with his email. I mean, this is ingenuity and capitalism at its finest. We’re fortunate to be in a position to hire him, but there will be no permanent tattoos. He has a sales job offer just as he is, or we have offered him $100K to get a semi-permanent tattoo and be a human billboard for our company,” says VirtualAutoBuying.com cofounder Chad Jeffers. Mr. Rosas is undecided on which option he’s going to take, but you can track the updates at VirtualAutoBuying.com.

There seems to be more desperation coming from the jobless by the day. It’s not all bad, though. This is a time where people can trim the fat from their budgets, test their own strengths and tap into creative thoughts they never knew existed. You never know, your next creative thought could land you a job like Derrick Rosas.
