Here's some FB folks' opinions on my new endeavor

“Yes, Marc… just yes.”

“So…have they called and offered you the job yet?  I mean, you have already proven your CEO worthiness - extreme dedication and brilliant advertisement proposals :)  I would bet the current CEO does not dedicate his FB page to Arby’s like you!  Good luck - if you get a hold of a phone number for us to call and demand your hiring so that they can avoid a boycott on your behalf, let me know.”

“2nd move should be to eat something at Arby’s every day or always eat Arby’s (only) on Frydays… kind of like Jared, I think he is CEO of Subway now.”

“What about Rax or Sir Beef? Wouldn’t that be more realistic?”

“Hey, Marc…we own a Quiznos here in Newburgh.  If you ever really need a job and have the desire to return home, call me :)  We’d love to have someone with your drive!!!”

“Send the link to your blog to the CEO! If s/he is worth their salt, they’ll let you become ‘CEO for a day’ thus fulfilling your goal. How can you deny such moxie? Mark, I still hope to meet you one day.”

“First things first….APPLY for entry level job cuz you have NO skills at this point, The commercal was luck and you will need alot more then luck to become a CEO of any company. Secondly put the BONG down!!!! Dream with in your means.”

“Have you beeen hird on as the drive thru guy yet or do you have a differnt position in the company. Your FaceBook carrier would need to be put on hold to achieve this goal.”

“You’ve got a lot to learn about food prep and stuff. Umm, you should learn how Arby’s works, like food they sell and how they prepare it. Nutritional facts. Learn who the current CEO is and how he got there, and how approved he is. You really probably have to know Arby’s inside and out and prove to them that you know how to manage the business better than the current CEO. Just some ideas.”

“Oh! I got it — The applying thing would never pan out. Bang a corporate head hunter. Find out who head hunts for Arby’s. Then bang him/her.”

“Marc, you should have them bring back baked potatoes. I was so bummed when they got rid of them. :)”

“flatter the CEO. Then present the CEO with how your idea is going to make money. That is all they care about right now.”

“marc, you can do it! i believe in you! love you soooo much. the world [well, arby’s] would be a better place if you were in charge!!!”

“They will probably do background checks”
