Green fog, you have defiantly restored my faith in canna.com for a bit, its always pleasant to get a well thought out, or at least slightly above randomly hammered response.

I agree with about everything you said, and although i won't bore you by citing why first impressions are often very inaccurate in situations where its known there would be a first impression (identity management is at it
s peak). I will say that without a doubt anyone should conduct themselves in professional manner when dealing with any sort of business transaction, which does (and i'm sad to say this) include business emails and anything else that means presenting yourself in a adventagious (sp) light.

In business, Identity management (first impressions in any form included) is everything. My contemporaries who do not understand this put me in a very good position for advancement in any situation.

I was just saying it shouldn't matter, not that it actually doesn't.:rastasmoke:

i'd say i agree with TGF... if you're not smart enough to atleast make a 'reputable' sounding email (it's not like they cost money... and if you can log on to check email, you can damn well spend a minute to make one that sounds more professional...

i'm sorry, but if i'm about to hire you, and you don't even have the common sense to make a decent sounding email (if you really must put it down in the first place, i've never had one job ask for my email adress) then, i'll find someone who atleast has the common sense to do so.

i also think the two are completely diffrent (being judged as 'kiddy' or 'unprofessional' for your email adress and being judged as a no life druggie) one, actually helps me with certain aspects (pain, my inablility to eat or sleep etc...) while the other, doesn't really 'do' anything...

TGF that kills me. Not the first time I've seen that crap. Also no one seems to remember that potential employers DO look on the internet and they DO see the comprimising pics you posted of yourself 8 years ago..... be smart peeps.
