Dear Chris

On February 12 the Olympic torch will arrive in Vancouver to start the 2010 Winter Olympic Games and everything else in Vancouver will come to a grinding halt – all except Lock Search Group, that is. Our dedicated team has been training for this event for almost a complete day now and will be in prime shape once the Torch arrives.

The events that our committed team has been training for include:

The Non-Ringing Phone Endurance Event – Using a combination of meditation, coffee, computer solitaire and air mattresses to combat bed sores, our staff will be poised to answer any call that might come through day or night.

Stopped/Slow Moving Car Vault – Recognizing that important client meetings could be sabotaged by traffic snarls, our team of dedicated staff has been practicing its wind sprints and car vaulting skills in a nearby Tim Horton’s drive-through which they feel gives the best comparison to real life circumstances. We are happy to announce that the stopped cars are proving to be no match for our group – though the slowly moving ones are still presenting a challenge. We hope them all to be off crutches soon so they can master that challenge by February 12.

Olympic Fever Vertical Climb – Our number one challenge will be to overcome peoples’ obsession with the Olympics so we can discuss meeting their recruitment needs. To that end the team here at the Vancouver office has fully embraced traditional Olympic dress for the duration of the Olympics. That’s right – we’ll all be wearing togas. (OK, traditional Olympic dress was nude but even Lock Search group has limits on how far it’ll go for your business.)

Lock Search Group is ready to meet your recruiting needs during the Olympics. We encourage you to give us a call or drop in and, hey, if you want to sport traditional Olympic dress, it’s all good. Be sure to bring a towel to sit on, though.

[PHOTOGRAPHIC IMAGE: GRAINY, BLEACHED OUT, OVEREXPOSED, HYPER REAL. Urban skate park on hot, sunny, summer day. At bottom close up of man completely, painfully yet comically wiped out in a half pipe. Skateboard and helmet sprayed out from his crash. Man is in 40s, balding wearing state of the art skate gear, elbow and knee pads.
A number of cool kids in our demographic (16- 24, mixed-race, multi-racial wearing low key skate gear, no helmets, modest tattooing, minor piercings (i.e. nose, lip, and earrings) sit at the top of the half-pipe. Backpacks, music players, snacks scattered around. Prominently on display are some VCVC cola cans/bottles being drunk. Mixed reactions from the kids to what they witness below – laughing, disgust, horror.]

That’s just the way it rolls. Some people get it and – others never will. VCVC’s got it. It tastes great with a shot of vanilla, a blast of cherry and a real cola kick for when you need it. Like after a punishing run on the slopes or after riding some serious trails – or like after wiping out during a session and sliding on your face in front of that betty with the nose ring. The price don’t hurt either.

But this guy? – he don’t need a VCVC – he needs an ambulance.

Wipe Out Your Thirst. [Stylized Image of an open glass bottle of VCVC with the cola pouring out in a wave, white crested foam on top, the lid on top of the wave like a boogie/skate board]

Apples have been around since… Adam and Eve but Ambrosia Apples are a tempting and nutritious new option. With their crisp, sweet taste they’re perfect for packed lunches or in a fresh salad… or even during a stolen moment from the office. Ambrosia Apples are grown only in Canada and their juicy goodness is available at farmer’s markets and the best grocers near you. They contain nothing but apples, mouth-watering flavour and the knowledge that you made the best choice for your family.

Put some goodness in your mouth.
