Didn't they just hire this guy?

Eddie Arzouian

Why is the CCA seeking to fill this position, I thought they just hired somebody?

Why doesn't Kim Sebrango do these tasks, it isn't like she is busy signing any new sponsors. We have not even heard that Tim Horton's is re-signing. Their deal ends in two weeks.

Tell you what, get rid of Sebrango, give me $20,000 more than she making, ensuring it is at least $10,000 more Lacelle, with 5% commission on all new cash sponsors and I'll do both jobs. Steve Lacelle can do some nice graphs and spreadsheets like MBAs are so keen on and stay out of my way.

I know the ad says, "Salary is commensurate with experience." but the CCA doesn't have even money to adequately compensate me for all my experience. I'l give them a break.

You're new guy will have to be good becuase I get out my stuff faster than th CCA gets theirs and it is always more interesting!

Merry Christmas.


CANADIAN CYCLING ASSOCIATION SEEKS COMMUNICATIONS MANAGER (AMENDED)

December 2005
December 16, 2005 - The Canadian Cycling Association, the national governing body for the sport of cycling in Canada, is seeking a full-time Communications Manager to develop and execute a strategic communication plan for the association. Working in concert with the Director of Marketing and the Chief Operating Officer the selected candidate will be primarily responsible for developing and coordinating the content for the association’s web site and for implementing a multi-tiered communications strategy.

The successful candidate will:

- develop and coordinate all public relations efforts for the association
- coordinate the day-to-day operations of cycling information
- build media relations to increase coverage of the CCA’s athletes and events
- coordinate the production of all press releases, feature-based cycling stories and other special publications, as needed
- disseminate information, results, success, human interest stories to media and other external communities
- develop and maintain archival information for the association (i.e., individual and team records, major award winners, pictures etc.)
- handle other responsibilities as required in concert with the Director of Marketing

The ideal candidate will be able to demonstrate a proven track record of successfully implementing similar communications strategies. The CCA is looking for a self-starter with strong written abilities, effective interpersonal skills and experience in public relations. Bilingualism is mandatory and post-secondary education in journalism or communications along with knowledge of cycling will be considered strong assets.

Salary is commensurate with experience. Applications with a resume will be accepted at the address below by January 16, 2006.

Canadian Cycling Association
2197 Riverside Drive, Suite 203
Ottawa, Ontario K1H 7S3
c/o Human Resources
Fax: (613) 248-9311
Email: general@canadian-cycling.com

We thank all applicants but only those invited for an interview will be contacted. No phone calls please. This position is made possible with financial support from the Government of Canada.

peeininnepean

LMAO. Of course, the CCA has no money to pay the great Arzouian for all his massive experience. Including his proven skills in relating to the media. I can imagine the phone calls he'd make to sports editors in Canada: "Hi, this is Ed Arzou..." <sound of laughter> <click>.

Tell us, Ed, would the $20,000 more than Sebrango is currently earning bring you up to the massive $46,000 you were earning as wanker-in-chief at the Chateauguay Valley English Speaking... uh, whatever the name of that august organization was?

Eddie Arzouian

Well, well, look who's back!

Couldn't stay away, huh...

PS Remember our discussion about the Criterium Championship? Looks like I won that battle. And how about Kinash's re-election? That didn't happen either. another win.

The best thing the CCA could do is fire Kim Sebrango, eliminate the unneeded position they are now opening because Sebrango can't handle the workload and pay me more than what they pay her but less than they would pay for both positions if they had them.

When do you think the CCA will have the courage to announce that Tim Horton's has not renewed their sponsorship? Probably when this nutjob crawls out from under his rock and gives us his name. Coward!



Here is more about this nutjob, who admits to posting only to harass me. Even writes to my home:


From earlier this year...
Yeah I should get alife! Take a look at what this person wrote to me at my home email address. He/She admits to harassing me simply out of spite. I contacted his/her employer: a Canwest nut case. And he/she telling me to get a life??? What a loony tune.

It is all here, have fun, make up your own minds:

Dear Messrs. Landry, Allnutt and Phillips,

One of your employees either current or former as indicated here,

"I'm the only one listening, and only for a short while, and only because you really bugged some people I worked with and respect and continue to post all sorts of trash about them."

and

" Canwest didn't manage to get you convincted (sic) of your charges was
because the reporters told the director of security that they couldn't be bothered
to testify. That's what they told Landry, but the real reason was that all
the people they were going to get to testify were shitting bricks at the
idea of showing up in court to face you because they were convinced you'd one
day bust a screw and show up at their house, shotgun in hand. They were probably
right too. I was in the newsroom talking about it with them at the time"

has decided to harass me simply for the sake of doing so, as they have acknowledged below.

"You're completely right, I am harassing you anonymously for spite. "

I'm assuming if they are doing this from a Canwest computer you can find out.

I would suggest you do so. Of course, given your history of double standards and lack of fair play, I doubt you will.

If the harassment continues ad nausem or gets worse, I will be contacting the police myself. As you know and as I stated to the person below they will be able to trace IP addresses and find them if they decide to do so.

I have sent along the whole exchange. To follow it might be easier to read form the bottom up. This person first posted stuff slandering and libelling me on www.pedalmag.com web forum and then followed me from there to www.cyclingforums.com. When I pointed out there that posting to my threads on these forums shows they are reading them all, the person began emailing me directly at home. Obviously they have a real problem.

If they are still an employee of yours you may want to find out.

Sincerely,
Ed Arzouian

Police can easily get a username from Hotmail when the choose.

I will post whatever I like wherever and there is nothing, absolutely nothing, you can do about it. Boy, that must really bug you, huh, my little nutcase!

Furthermore, since you have confirmed you worked for Canwest or The Gazette, I will be sending this to Landry at Canwest and Allnutt and Phillips at The Gazette. If you are using their computers they will know. They can tract my incoming mail.

Maybe they will choose to nothing but I don't really care.

As I have said before, you are powerless to do anything.

Furthermore you must hide.

I'm glad I do not have to feel at impotent and frustrated as that.

I get to stroke my extremely large ego each time I send an email or post something on a forum anywhere.

You get nothing.

Keep them coming, little nowhere person!

I hope you are reading all my stuff on Yahoo Group Media in Montreal. I'm having lots of fun at the expense of your colleagues there too. The beauty of that is that many more people including employees of The Gazette read that.

You wrote, "I'm the only one listening, and only for a short while,
and only because you really bugged some people I worked with and respect and
continue to post all sorts of trash about them."

Only for a short while???? What a shame. Why will you stop? Certainly I won't. That should be evident by now.

Bye coward.....

You're completely right, I am harassing you anonymously for spite. As far as
posting these e-mails online or not, your double-standard is remarkable for
someone who always accuses others of spinning. My e-mails that make you look
persecuted are good to post publicly, but the ones that expose you for the
jerk you are don't get posted?

And the reason I took it offline is because you insist on saying that every
reply to your assinine postings is a win, that it proves people are
listening. Wrong, I'm the only one listening, and only for a short while,
and only because you really bugged some people I worked with and respect and
continue to post all sorts of trash about them.

At some point you will make a harassment claim and I'll be exposed? How?
You'll get your friends at Microsoft to give you my IP? Maybe Bill Gates
himself. Sure.

This has nothing to do with cycling. Then again, the people I know who are
informed tell me that neither do you.

Cheers!

peeininnepean

Actually, this isn't the same peeininnepean as the previous posts, although we know each other. She lent me her log on so I could take a turn getting your goat, which is easily got. I'm not in Nepean, but I'm still peein myself laughing.

How about it, though? Just over 3 years ago you were happy to be earning $46,000. You must have been, because when you wrote the e-mail to Sheila Copps' office accusing your former employer of fraud (recognize a pattern?), cc'ing half the MP's in Canada and every news outlet you had the e-mail of (spammer!), you said resigning the job at that figure caused you "considerable personal expense." So how come $46,000 in 2002 is "considerable" and in line with your experience (especially since you probably inflated the number for the letter anyway), but now you're looking for, what, six figures?

Eddie Arzouian

peeininnepean

Are you kidding? Watching you squirm trying to figure out who I am is comical. Also, my inbox gets enough spam as it is. Believe it or not, that's the biggest threat you pose to the "establishment": we don't want another 30 e-mails a day, threats, etc. It's a nuisance threat. Isn't this the time of year for you to be delivering your little hand-written "holiday cards" to people's personal mailboxes?

Besides, for someone who still doesn't know who I am, isn't it a bit quick to say I know nothing about cycling? I've represented our country: have you?

It's a moot point about how much you should make at the CCA, because no one will ever hire you. You're a laughing stock in Canadian cycling, even though the people you hang with may not be willing to admit it to your face.

Happy holidays! Maybe this will ring a bell: "The bad news is, you've been naughty. The good news is... the stuff I write!"

Eddie Arzouian

I don't give a rat's ass who you are.

How can you possibly think I'm squirming. I enjoy this stuff. Don't you get that yet?

Why would I squirm when it was you that went out of your way to come here looking for me? You must be very annoyed with me to have to come here and dig up five year old news.

As for cycling, one of the first things the new CCA President did was call me to chat.

Nobody that has represented Canada in cycling would say I don't know anything about the sport. They would say just the opposite. Have I represented a country, yes, two, actually.

Why would people hang with with me if they thought I wasn't worth it? After all, people seek my out for my expertise. Why was I hired in Hamilton? They could have hired anybody. Why me for the biggest cycling event in the country for 29 years? I had 30 years in the sport at that time, don't you think they would have figured it out by then? Why did Rob Jones of Canadian Cyclist rush over to me at the Bike Show in Toronto and say, " thank goodness Hamilton finally hired who knows what they are doing"?



No bells are ringing from your quote.


Keep reading.

Go hide.

peeininnepean

You only ever ask the questions that you like the answers to. You were hired for Hamilton because of your resume in the sport. You were also hired because the people running that show, as you've said yourself often enough, were incompetents, and that extended to their hiring practices.

More importantly, though, the question isn't why you were hired, it's why you were fired. And you were fired because not even your resume can gloss over the fact that you've always been a sour-assed egotist bent on self-aggrandizement, and if anything have gotten worse over the years. The single driving force behind everything you have done in your life has been a single, phallic quest for total ego enhancement. Keep it up (heh heh)!

peeininnepean

...and my quote doesn't ring a bell? You must losing your memory, Mr. Uso. Must be the drugs: you're other main occupation makes you blind, but doesn't do anything to your memory, as far as I know.

Eddie Arzouian

Why would I ask questions I don't like the answers to? What's the fun in that?

Sue, is that you? Has your husband left you and taken the kids and you're hitting the bottle heavy?

You must cling to my words even more than I do.

Did I write that years ago?

Good for you for remembering.

I was fired at Hamitlon because I would not go along with their corruption.

Everything I said would go wrong did. They ruined that event and its legacy. 100,000 for that pro race??? Weget that in Montreal for one women's race. They should have had 500,000. Hamilton is an armpit. The CCA got ZERO sponsorship out of it. $15 million invested and the CCA got nothing,a little lump sum they don't even know how or what to do with, that would not even represent what one good corporate sponsor would give in a year, never mind three or five. Where is the big Hamilton event that was supposed to be a yearly event?

I was correct about Hamilton. Time has proven that. Where are Kinash Hutsebaut, and Jolly? Gone!

I was corrrect about you and your colleagues, too.

Hadekel fired.
Stockland out of newspapers completely.
"Banal" Bagnall-Marsden, a plagiarizer.
You suspended for shoddy work and constantly making factual mistakes. Every piece you write is a joke among any literate readers.
You're all hacks without an original thought to pen to paper. And certainly no style.

You quote me four years after the fact!
Oh, and if you're not Sue, give her the message.

I'll have to leave you soon. I'm down in NY state as you may know, I'm off to a First Night celebration and champagne party in a high rise beside the fireworks.

Are you drinking all night by yourself?

Eddie Arzouian

Oh, PeeingSue, you forgot to explain why it is, given your comment above, that the new CCA President would call me to chat right after taking office? He went out of his way to set up a call? Why would he do that?

You must have some explanation? Or do you just choose to ignore facts, like in your column, when they interfere with your opinion?

Eddie Arzouian

Just in case anybody is still interested in the real topic of this thread, here's a little math to prove my point.


Lacelle makes about $60,000 per year if he is getting what Huts got.

Sebrango probably gets about $45,000 most likely with commissions and/or bonuses she will never earn because she will never deliver any real cash sponsorship.

The new Comm. Director would probably make about $40,000.

Soooo, fire Sebrango, hire me for $70,000 and the CCA saves $15,000 AND gets an employee that actually knows something about cycling!

peeininnepean

Nope, not Sue, and not Peter either. In fact, never worked at the Gazette, although given your massive efforts to become loved there I can see why you'd feel rejected. But I AM connected. If you dig deep, put aside your personal animosities and think hard, and you will know who is the only person who could know so much about you and still hate you this much (although the hate thing doesn't narrow the field, frankly). You won't know it deductively, because you simply don't have all the facts, but you will know it in your heart (if you are the slightest bit in touch with your feelings, which I doubt).

Anyway, if they called you it was no doubt because they had a mess to clean up and were hoping to get the perspective of all those connected to it or in charge of perpetrating it. They had the Hutsebaut cancer, your old buddy and the guy who reached out for you in Hamilton, to excise. If you think it was because they valued your advice, well, I would say you're off the mark: if they valued your potential contribution that much, why would they pass you up once, twice, and now three times for jobs that, as you admit, you are so completely overqualified for.

A high-rise in NY state? There are no buildings over 4 stories in the bucky-town where you live, unless you count deer-hunting blinds in the trees. And the fireworks are probably Larry, Darryl and Darryl getting drunk on Colt 45 and lighting each other's farts. Have a merry time!

Eddie Arzouian

Nope, don't who you might be then if you deny you are from The Gazette.. Don't care either. I piss off so many people how could I ever guess. Doubt you were ever that important if I ever knew you personally. You remain a nobody, a cowardly frustrated one at that!

It must be REALLY annoying to hate me that much and have to sit there nameless and powerless to do anything about it.

Anyway, you stew. Doubt you are connected to much of anything.

I'm not sure what town you think I'm in, you must not be doing your research well (another typical Gazette trait!),but I'm off to a 7th floor office building for a champagne party to watch First Night Fireworks. I work on the fifth floor of my 7-floor building.

I look out on buldings 15 to 20 stories high, so there are plenty of buildings higher than 4 stories. Dig a little more.

Again your assessment of my 45-minute or so conversation with Pierre Blanchard was wrong. We didn't talk about the past much at all, except to laugh. We did talk about the future.
