Speaking of work

I’ve started harping on my friends who have little kids to send more pictures of them, since Susanne and I have been going through some withdrawal and who likes withdrawal? I was amused to get this one of little A, because he looks very much like a former coworker of mine, Mark. So now I suspect Mark is a closet sperm donor. Those of you who know him, cast a gander at this and make your own judgment…

 

Spawn of Mark?

Spawn of Mark?

So I have a job — well, we’ll loosely call it this — interview today. Actually, I have half an hour to convince some woman in HR that they should find a place for me in their firm. I’ll have to sell myself without looking like I’m a salesman, be charming but not overcharming, specialized enough that I look like a great catch without looking like I’m too compartmentalized. Whew! Should be easy to thread that needle — though it might be hard getting the derriere of yours truly through it…

    Good luck on your interview. Even though I would like my cubbie buddy back! I don’t want to break in someone else.

    Smooth talk the HR person. 🙂

    How old is Mark? I want a picture! Maybe our donor was in our backyard this whole time! 😉

    Oh, 30-something. You can find him on my friends list on Facebook — he’s the only Mark on the list. Ha, we’ll peg him on this, won’t we?

    Well Robin posted, so the guy from the cube on the other side had to post as I take a look at the blog for the 2nd time! Good luck on the job interview, the nameplate “Everett” is still on that empty cube, I added to it, it now say’s “Everett Who?”…Well good luck.

    Everett Who? That’s awesome! I am surprised y’all remembered me this long, anyhow. 😉 Hope all is well back at the ranch!

    I hope the interview went well – I’m sure you were memorable. Anyway, I’m glad you’re keeping you blog up-to-date (it’s a great way to get an Everett fix). And yes, Esther and I miss you (especially your verbal repartee)!
