We lost a good woman today ladies and gentleman. We lost a kind and decent, gentle flower of a sweet older woman. We lost one of my favorites. [tag]Estelle Getty died today[/tag] at the age of 81 from [tag]dementia[/tag] (that’s GOT to suck) and [tag]The Golden Girls[/tag] just got a little less golden. You no [...]

Anyone who has known me for a time knows one definite thing about me. I hate to be startled. It is not funny to leap out from behind a door and scream at me. It is not high comedy to drop a loud cup on the kitchen floor as I’m standing there. I hate when [...]

Today on my way to work I was behind a “[tag]rodent reducer[/tag]” truck. He was from the other side of town and in my neck of the woods at 6:30am. Why would I notice that, because it was very early to see a license plate from another county which is an hour away? This is [...]

I like to think that, given the chance, I could bench press 300 lbs off my chest three or four times. Here’s the funny thing; I’m 5 ’10, weigh 180 lbs…there’s not a snowball’s chance in hell that I can get 300 lbs off my chest unless that 300 lbs is an ugly woman that’s [...]

Resume presented…Initial interview scheduled…Candidate fully prepped…Candidate nails interview…Glowing feedback from client…and then the music stops and there’s complete silence.We’ve all heard it before and we’ve all experienced it before…If [tag]you snooze, you lose[/tag]! It is just that simple. Period. When you allow a search to come to a screeching halt, any existing momentum fizzles out [...]

Sometimes things are not as they appear. Sometimes we think we know what we’re looking at/dealing with only to find out that it’s completely different. Like that girl that I went out with a couple of years ago only to find out that she had an Adam’s apple and a peni…anyway, I’ve shared too much.Think [...]

So we’ve all been here before…where today’s the ump-teenth time that you’ve heard “I’ll have [tag]feedback[/tag] back for you soon”. Yet another day passes, so you pick up the phone and leave another lovely voice mail asking for feedback and you shoot over a quick email practically begging for anything. A few hours pass and [...]

I recently had a [tag]candidate[/tag] interview at a [tag]kick-ass agency[/tag]. You would think she would be over the moon to be considered for this position. A nice raise, cool accounts, the prestige of her name on that business card. But, instead, she came away with a whole lot of questions.
I think sometimes [tag]hiring managers[/tag] get [...]

[tag]What the blue blazes is in the air?[/tag] Everyone is busy at the same time and on vacation while working post production with a sinus infection.

Come on people we are your [tag]business partner[/tag]. We work with you. You wanted this particular person to come and work for you. [tag]Communicate[/tag] and let us know what the [...]

I’m blurry-eyed, sleepless…barely able to see this morning. There are tiny little [tag]kittens[/tag] running around the office…I’m not quite sure where they came from…they’re pretty damn cute though…and I hate cats for the most part. Bananarama is on the radio. Bananarama? Really? That was what you came up with during the all night “what should [...]
