Fashion comes first and I do believe my hooker heels (actually camel Michael Kors) were a good way to make sure the roof had been properly installed. Vlad continues to get defensive and I am glad Jeff measured the plasma inlet. It was 8 inches off. Whoops. Unbelievable.

Jeff and I argue. When I believe he is wrong or acting in a way that will come back around to harm him, I stand up to him. I am not a yes man employee. I think someday he may or may not thank me for that, but it will not effect my self worth either way. Expensive therapy has taught me to not seek validation from others. Also, the only person you should compete with is yourself.

I had a new level of understanding for Mr. Lewis after I sat in his chair for the day. He has a tough job. He is responsible for a heap of details and it weighs on him. Jeff is fast paced because he has a tremendous amount to accomplish in a given day. I found I did things to Sarah (such as grab the phone from her or cut her off) which Jeff does to me and it bugs. I realized he does it in an effort to save time. He has all the information, so it is sometimes easier to relay it himself. Jeff is amazing at what he does and I respect that.

I think that the episode with Jackie not paying was really misleading, she did pay and on time. You guys were not fair in this episode and did not do anything to make it right.

Hi Jenni,
You do a great job selling houses with Jeff,
you two make a great team.
When Jeff was sick you did even a better job.
Keep up the great work.
Look forward to watching you every week.
A Fan,

Jenni -

My boss would love to have a girl like you next to him. I am the next best thing. I believe that Jeff and JJ (my boss), were cut from the same cloth. You and I have very similar responsibilities and they don't have a lot to do with our jobs. Stroking egos can be hard work. However, our line of work is very similar as well. JJ is a top producing Real Estate Broker here in Southern Oregon and I am of course his assistant.

Hi Jenni,
I use to work for a couple of men that were just like Jeff. I wish this program would have been out then so I would be able to watch how you handle each situation with grace, patience and good humor. When they were mean and cruel to me I would just get soooooooooooo ungraceful, impatient and mad. I had no idea there were other men like my bosses. I just thought I was a lousy boss magnet. Keep up the good work. I really admire you.

Jenni,Jenni, get some back bone when it comes to Jeff, sorry but no one should have to work for a wack job like him. I don't get what all the fuss is over Jeff, I'm glad the bacon was old and made him sick. It was probly the first day you had a chance to breath.Jeff dose not get it, you just do not treat people like the way he dose. Good for Ryan that he got away from him. Who knows what Jeff really teachs Ryans baby!!!!!!!

Damn straight: I am looking at Jeff through you....You all are a team. Zoila, the young
guy with the shorts--a bit inapropriate yet he too admires/respects ALL OF YOU. I am a writer, pubisher, musician,whatever-- and only doing so to learn from the best. I will ask questions which have nothing whatsoever with the book I am doing...taken a lot of crap from those who are brilliant--learning...it's not for $$-
simply to learn, take it and move FORWARD... RYAN HURTS THE TEAM...MOVE FORWARD, YOU ARE ALL A TEAM. WHEN RYAN KNOCKS AT THE DOOR=-SORRY BUSY..HE IS A BAD OMEN.
TRUST ME.
MICHIGAN- PERHAPS A VISIT SOMETIME-IDEAS WOULD BE WELCOME. MY MATE DIED,NEIGHBOURS DON'T LIKE ME-NEVER FIT HERE. TOLD MATE THAT LONG AGO. THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME.
I look into their eyes, body movements--3 dogs,cat, water garden,a woman bullfrog who is loves me...

Hi Jenni. I just wanted to let you know that I think you are really good at your job and...you come off really natural on the show. I'm not sure I would want to work for Jeff so..it says alot about you to have stuck it out for this long. Don't get me wrong...I think Jeff is great. Jeff is like the sun....you learn to love him from far. LOL!!!

Jenni, I just want to commend you on the great work your doing I watch the show everytime its on. Your very Beautiful, sweet, down to earth, loving and a very intelligent, hardworking girl. You deserve someone special in your life and I personally hope you find that right guy(if i lived in Cali i would definately take you out on a date). Besides all that, I do believe you will come to own your own business, maybe a Temp Business youd make a ton of money off of Jeff LOL betting him how long theyd last. Besides could you tell jeff for me that I think hes very intelligent and should really write a book about Micromanagment and how to deal with Contractors. Im always learning from him and you with every show I watch because it is really a learning experience. Never Trust a Contractor... I learned that the hard way... & jenni I hope you get what you want out of acting and become a huge success because you must always pursue what make you most happiest & never give up on the dream... send me an email if you want to chat and be friends. take care.

Hey Jenni, I think you have to one of the luckest girls ever. Jeff is such a doll. I would kill to spend the day with him. He seems so smart and he really is a hottie. He reminds me of my best friend that pasted away 5 years ago. Enjoy Jeff and all his little quirks.

Jenni, don't walk on any more roofs!! I was worried about you! I broke my ankle 2 years ago and crutches for 6 weeks was not fun. So be careful

Hey, love ya'; but, I can't see you with anyone other than Chris! You are probably to sharp, quick witted and intelligent for the average guy "out there". (not to mention too hot for words!) Is there any chance you guys can work it out?

jenni,

you are the soul to that show. It is so much fun to watch, time flies by and I cannot wait till next week.
How or Why did Jeff get so SNAPPY. Everyone has stress!

Hi Jenni - love you on the show. Hope you never leave, it just wouldn't be the same without you. Though, I would watch "Just Jenni" if you had your own show. It could be a show about your life when you're not at work with Jeff. Like going on auditions, dates, etc. I think it would be a hit. You're so funny.

Jenni,
You are amazing!!! I love Jeff but having to work for him must be weary on the body and soul. I felt bad when he said to you "you are my assistant not my business partner". You seem to take it all in stride. I did love when you spent a day in his shoes, so you know what he deals with first hand. The fact that he is annal makes it even harder. I love Jeff and you are the right person to be his BUSINESS PARTNER. Stand up Girl, you have it all, hey who else can inspect a roof wearing heels and look so hot!!!

It was a great day at Jeff Lewis' office with you in charge! I was happy to see that you stepped up and handled the tough situations with poise and confidence. Jeff should know that women in hot hooker heels can do anything!

Jenni, you are shhh, I would work with you any day, You are so funny, intelligent, & gorgeous,I can't believe you aren't taken already. As much as you rock Jenni, if Sarah is single (which I thought I saw a ring on her), send her my way. I really don't like to be rude & objectionable but her body, face & personality, WoW! Enough said, can't wait for next week. Keep up the good work Jeff Lewis & company.

Jenni!

I think that deep down, Jeff wants you to be his business partner. I don't think he trusts anyone else like he trusts you. I believe this is why he has made the comments he has to you. It looks as though he is hurt that you have other interests other than working with him. I think he loves you. Not like a girl friend but a true friend that he can trust.

You do a better job with Jeff than anyone else. Keep up the good work.

Jenni, you rock, girl, with or without stiletto heels! For you to have stuck with Jeff for 8 years is an amazing feat in itself and you deserve major kudos for that. I was definitely impressed how you stepped up to the plate when Jeff was sick and dealt with that wacko Jackie and creepy Vlad. I hope up stick around for all future Flipping Out episodes (since I hear you're doing more auditions now) becuz' us girls need you on the show!

Jenni,

I think you handled Jackie very well, and it needed to be done. Same with Vlad. What is with these people? Take responsibility and do something! I think these situations contribute to Jeff's rep, but it's actually the fault of the other people. If they would just do what they are supposed to do, there would be no problem. They are just trying to get away with something. Sometimes you have to be the hard-ass if you want to make sure things get done and get done right. Sad state of our society.

Jenni,

I commend you for walking on that roof in those Kors heels. I was waiting for either the heel or your ankle to break during your site survey.

And STOP reading your emails while driving! My boss is very identical to Jeff, work-wise, and he does this all the time. At least it seems Jeff has the person in the passenger seat reading the emails for him.

09/16/2009 - 11:08am

You looked fab in your Kors. I have so much fun watching you all, I think your incredibly strong and fierce woman!
If I were Jeff, Zoila would be out the door, and her bacon too.

Love you Jenni!! I know I was crackin up over the "I do" comment. Pervert! haha You and Jeff make a great team, I secrectly hope you do not make it in your passion to become an actress so that you can continue to entertain us on Flipping out. Sorry.. :)

i have worked in constuction for 17 years i am only 36 that is the first time for me to see a job site stop at once over money

I think it was crazy that Jenni had to confront their Jackie for payments and shut down the place.

This client, Jackie was annoying to watch. It's business, not charity lady!!! not to mention embarrassing... Jeff may be crazy but he's right. He's responsible for all these people and they need to be paid for the work to support their families.

You handled the shut-down of the job site SO WELL! It was awesome to watch you take control.

Dear Jenni,

I want to have Jeff's baby... Please let me know if we can work something out. I do not need a green card, but would be happy and blessed to help carry on Jeff's legacy.
I would be honored.

Thank you

Jenni, I think you handled the situation pretty good. How does one apply for a Jeff Lewis job. And Sarah is hot. You guys crack me up. I'm almost as OCD as Jeff, it'd be fun to try it out
