I kind of feel like V4L found ME.
I was doing freelance work and I came across an ad for a contract social media/content person. BUT it was at a vape shop.
At the time, I had this misconception that vaping was just about looking cool while you blew giant clouds of fog.
I had tried vaping before, but it didn't feel like smoking, so I didn't keep up with it and I kind of laughed it off (sorry).
When I came to my job interview at V4L, Steve was more concerned about getting me to try the Vapor Zeus (because he learned I was a smoker) than he was about finding out my experience or looking at my portfolio.
I legit said WOW when I tried the Zeus and then later, once I got the job, I learned why he said that that's what everyone says.
He sent me home that day with a bunch of freebies without even knowing if he'd hire me yet. I thought that was pretty awesome and now, after working here for awhile, I've learned that that's just what he DOES when someone needs help.
That's what this whole community DOES. They PIF, they answer questions, they give suggestions.
So, that's how V4L found me and I haven't looked back since. I'm thankful to be part of the family!
