life is very challenge
So this attractive Chinese woman started talking to me on the subway. First she wanted me to go to a cattle call for potential models, but it took me about ten minutes to figure out what the hell she was talking about. I took the card (and later that day read an expose about the company, TCT, in Jane magazine). Once she found out I was an editor she started in on wanting me to look at her website.  I gave her my email to get her off my back. Our correspondence is below.

Colleen,
Hi! How's going on?
Have you been to TCCT company for job interview? I wan to know what happened

If you haven't been there, then forget my word.
Ok, I am doing my web site. Following is what I am writing for the users:If
you find some bad expression, please change it for me.

[I'll spare you the 17 FAQ in similarly broken English which appeared here]

Ok, if you can improve it for me, that will be
great!Thanks so much!
I am waiting for your reply!

ching,

thanks!

Colleen,
Hi! Very nice to receive your answer!
Maybe you don't go to the interview, that job will help you get the money!
Thanks for your explanation about helping me improving the English!
At the same time I send my English text to three persons like you I meet. Two of them have already finished correcting my English text.
Only you require the money. Then you lost the chance. This is New York's rule. everything is done by beat. If I don't know you can do that for me by this small test, how can I pay you?
I apply for the IT job, five people are qualified. The manager ask me the salary. I answered as high as possible. He said no high salary.
I said that you could pay me contract salary. He answered I lost the chance, because the other people accepted any salary he offered.
So, you see, life is very challenge.
OK, very nice to email to you!
Take care of yourself!
Ching



A little bit later, I got another email from her, with the subject line NEW ANSWER!

Could view my new site and give me some suggestion?
Thanks!

Ching



Although I could have pointed out that two people had already corrected it for her and that I had already lost my chance, I did not have NEW ANSWER! for her.
