I have to write this to express my gratitude towards our President Barack Obama for taking direct action in his first year in office and enabling me to again be employed in this country.
Shortly after Obama took office he bailed out Chrysler. Chrysler has now re-paid it's government loan and is selling cars in a tough economy. Some would have liked to see Chrysler go away and with it lots of jobs including my new gig. I now sell cars for a Chrysler/ Jeep dealership. I had been unemployed for 4 months and without any government assistance since i was fired from my last job due to my own error in judgement. My current job isn't my dream job of writing comedy for television, but at least i get a paycheck now.
In a time when Obama is getting crap from all sides. I felt it was important to thank him and let him know that i will work hard in my new job and pay my taxes to support my government and my country. Thanks Mr. President. Without you, I'd still be unemployed. Thanks for having faith in the American worker and the American car manufacturer. Sales are slow, but i sold 2 cars n the past week that i have been employed. That's two more than i would had i still been combing the want ads. Kudos Mr President, the decisions you made years ago are paying dividends now! Have faith people. Don't let the perfect be the enemy of the good.
