Moderators dtel Posted October 16, 2006 Moderators Share Posted October 16, 2006 It's going to feel very strange to get up " every " morning to go to work ! There must be a minimum number of speakers you have to own to get hired at Klipsch. Michael that last pair of Heresy's put you over the magic number, now you can be hired.

kaiser SET say Posted October 16, 2006 Share Posted October 16, 2006 Congrats dude, how'd I do[] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Lindsey Posted October 16, 2006 Share Posted October 16, 2006 Well I'm all ears. [] Will you be going to work for Klipsch as their official photographer? Have an interview this morning? I'm guessing they offer their employee's a minor discount on speakers? Mike On page 2... knew it all along. [] Well... except for the Klipsch photographer part.

PhilMays Posted October 16, 2006 Share Posted October 16, 2006 Congrats Michael[<)] I don't know where I've been...I just now found this and toiled through the entire thread, WOW! A lot of people really like you, and I can see why! Now...the best part of the thread for me was watching Amy's reply and seeing her avitar[] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DizRotus Posted October 16, 2006 Share Posted October 16, 2006 Great news Michael! Youre perfect for the job; knowledgeable, helpful and enthusiastic.<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" /> You probably spoke to this elsewhere in the thread; will you be able to do wedding shoots on the side? Would you want to do so? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BS Button Posted October 16, 2006 Share Posted October 16, 2006 Michael, Very good news and quite the story! BS Button Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ScorpsFan Posted October 16, 2006 Share Posted October 16, 2006 Michael, Congrats on the new position, perfect person for the job! BTW, Amy did tell you about the haircut all new employees have to wear for their initiation, didn't she? Not to worry, it's only until they issue you your official Bullsh-t button.

colterphoto1 Posted October 16, 2006 Author Share Posted October 16, 2006 I think most of the emails from Tech Support look like this: "Have you considered posting that question in the technical section of our forum." or, "Type B3 network? We need to search through our technical library -- we should have an answer for you before the year is out." and, "Please contact Bob Crites, Dean Wescott if you're not in a hurry, and Al Klappenburger if you need an attitude adjustment." Thanks Dean, I'll add those to my list of boilerplate excuses. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
colterphoto1 Posted October 16, 2006 Author Share Posted October 16, 2006 Mike L and Seti- yeah you guys hit it right on the head. I'll have to work on the photographer gig with Klipsch. Neil Disney- Still finishing up weddings for this year over the next two months. With photography becoming more 'shoot it and hand us the CD' it will be possible to take on some events - probably more HS seniors than weddings though. Kaiser- I saw your movie the other night, what a twisted plot! Thanks all for your support. I'll have to be a good boy on here from now on. No tales of woe or OT subjects from me (we can do PM for that junk). I'm looking forward to even furthering my product knowledge and gain skills to help the many fans of Klipsch around the world. Not just a job, this will be a long running adventure for yours truly. I honestly feel that all these purchases, becoming friends with Trey, Steve, and Amy, and the workout on the Forum have all been leading up to this. It's awesome and I hope to be of good use to the company. Maybe I can arrange for a field trip to meet Werner! That would be cool! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fini Posted October 16, 2006 Share Posted October 16, 2006 Wow, and to think, I knew you back when you had fewer posts than I... HeHe, congrats, Michael! I'll be contacting you with a technical request come December (my KSP-400s came without spikes...)[] This next Pilgrimage should be a doozie!

IndyKlipschFan Posted October 16, 2006 Share Posted October 16, 2006 Kinda scary where your journey in life takes you isn't it? Kinda reminds me of a saying that just might apply to you too? What would you attempt to do if you knew you coudl not fail? Think about that one a lot as you start this journey. I wish you all the best! This reminds me of Willie Wonka talking to Charlie Bucket in the movie.... Charlie... (paraphrasing it of course) Do you know what happens to the boy who wished for everything in life and got it? He lived happily ever after! So much of anything in life is what you make it. You make yourself happy, and yes you can make yourself sad.. for the most part. Few of us get to do what we really like in life AND get paid for it. One thing for sure this whole audio arena of questioning things and how this and that works seems to have paid off too. Your background is a good fit for now. Run with it. Be joyful in it. We will celebrate WITH you your success. Sincerely, your Klipsch buddy in crime..

colterphoto1 Posted October 16, 2006 Author Share Posted October 16, 2006 I dunno guys. I got word today that my struggle for the title of my house isn't going well. Title insurance company may not pay all the legal bills. Seller has the biggest law firm in the state working for her. It looks bad. So on a day when I should be very happy, I'm as miserable as ever.

Seadog Posted October 17, 2006 Share Posted October 17, 2006 Congratulations Michael! I was hoping that the "something wonderful" was that you were selected to shoot the 2007 SI swimsuit edition[]....but a tech position at Klipsch is much better than that! [<)] Anyway, I'm really happy for you, and I know you'll bend over backwards to help solve speaker problems........[] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fini Posted October 17, 2006 Share Posted October 17, 2006 So that's what he meant by "a position with Klipsch"... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
colterphoto1 Posted October 17, 2006 Author Share Posted October 17, 2006 no, really try it. it sounds better down here. it's better with a young curvy buddy though. Found myself on my back just last Friday night between those big ole LaScalas. PLENTY of bass there. Like the world's biggest headphones. but grrrrr I'm still mad and losing sleep over this zoning/house title thing. Do ya ever just KNOW that things aren't going to go your way but you put up the fight anyway? What's that all about? M Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
