I absolutely loathe my ex-wife. Good mother to our son but an otherwise selfish human being. That is all

The internet never forgets.
I was pointed to this video on youtube today about leather jackets.
Other then being physicaly painful to watch, because she obviously has no clue about leather jackets, they also use a picture of me from 2010 that was posted in the filmjackets forum. It's indeed a prime example of how a cafe racer jacket should not fit.
That is because that friggin jacket turned out beeing at least a size to small (it was XL), thanks to Belstaffs all over the place sizing. I had to exale and then hold my breath to zip it up. Needless to say it was never worn outside of our backyard after taking these pictures and sold on to a smaller guy the very same day.
I'm not new to people using pictures of me on eBay to sell their jackets, but this realy pisses me off. With more then 200.000 subscribers she's most likely to make some money with that bullshit and of course that friggin picture is not flattering at all. ::)
I reported them for copyright violations and wrote them an e-mail. Let's see what happens.

Couldn't watch more then two minutes of that video…. makes me wanna puke

That video was bad. I don't know squat about leather jackets but Ashley Weston clearly doesn't either, and she's a so-called 'celebrity stylist.' Asshole + opinion = crappy video.

But she works with lots of really great, high-end brands, like All-Saints.
But more to the point, that sucks, Cole. You didn't deserve that, since you normally look great in cafe racer leather jackets. And you're obviously uncomfortable in that pic, which makes it even worse.
It's one thing to show faces when she's talking about guys that look great, but it's pretty low to show average dudes and say, "See this guy? He dresses like shit." At the very least, she should be blurring faces.
And then of course, there are the blatant copyright violations…

I still have no reply about the usage of my picture, but I just crossread her Men's Jeans Fit Guide and noticed that under the point
"I see a lot of guys wearing jeans with stacking like the images below. You want to avoid this at all costs."
is a picture that looks remarkably like the ones that Self Edge uses, just that she was clever enough to crop the face out this time.
Little Ashley is a experienced copy cat.
Notice the graffiti on the street.

hahaha. she said the jacket suited more muscular men. i guess you'd have to take off the jacket to show her your build.
guess she needs to compensate for the lack of with her fianceCouldn't watch more then two minutes of that video…. makes me wanna puke
to be honest, i couldn't stand her voice 10 seconds in.. had to suffer through just to see what it was all about..
-
Her videos are simply horrible to watch. I looked that epic ''Men's Jeans Fit Guide'' up and this is the introduction:
''I see a crap-ton of guys wearing jeans that don’t fit properly. I often wonder who would date or marry these schulbs.''
This says more about her than it should (or anyone needed to know).

Had an interview last week, thought I did pretty well and haven’t heard a thing back. Pissed.

^That’s rude. They should get back to you within a week with their decision.

Her intonation (upspeak) drives me insane. I wouldn’t be able to watch enough of her videos to ever find out I’m dressing wrong, and quite honestly, I wouldn’t care what she thinks!
Well, in her case it's the blind leading the blind

This happens way too often. Sorry it happened to you as well.
I had a second phone interview today for a new job, hoping that doesn’t happen again. -
my car is in the shop again and I had to take public transportation for the first time in 20 yrs. Reminds me why I bought a car in the first place. Even more depressing than taking the bus is how much money i've sunk into repairs in the last 6 months (engine mounts, tie rods, struts, ignition replacement, brake pads/rotors). Probably a first world problem but I want to

I find the whole recruitment process to be really dispiriting. I tend to work as a contractor / freelancer, so I go through it a couple of times a year.
I normally find that agents talk me down (you're not good enough for this job / rate), potential employers or clients are really demanding (they want a lot of recent experience), the recruitment process involves jumping through some significant hoops (I've been sent technical tests that will take several days to complete), and you often get turned down because of fairly arbitrary reasons.
@David_pll I had a face-to-face interview a fortnight ago. I haven't heard back either.
