Just got this email from L
Just another day at the office....
Ok so Tonya just got off the phone with a client that is opening a London division and we're supposed to try to recruit for it. Which is cool and all, seriously though it probably won't happen because we do mostly contract and I don't even want to touch EU employment laws.
But, poor Tonya calls me and is all excited, thinking I should go over because, you know, I know the language....
We are special.
Well, I wouldn't do the whole dunk-under-water thing....
OK I think I missed the whole point of cat baptism then.
So I did know what insent was, but I had to google milf. Hey, have to learn something new every day.
Sean, you are getting an e-mail from our Master Electrician about upcoming work. I gave him your info. FYI.
ETA: respond quickly. It's bcc'd to 20 other people
do you offer marriage counseling before the wedding?
Yes...a lot! Before, during and after the wedding. Since I'm also a former florist and planner, my couples get one-stop shop of bonuses.
I love doing pre-marital work and I especially appreciate couples who are aware enough to seek assistance in avoiding some of those "communication" problems it seems everyone falls victim too. In the end, it's all about figuring out your frame of reference, your partner's and where they diverse/intersect. Mostly, asking questions people don't seem to think to ask until it's too late.
What is your success rate (still together vs divorced)?
Only one couple has gotten divorced. That one was a tremendous surprise. At the risk of coming over annoyingly boastful, I'm really good at seeing through people's masks. This time? Total cockup on my part. 3 months after the wedding, during a fight, the mild-mannered groom reached under the marital bed and pulled out a shot gun. (all threat, no injury) I was floored. The bride came back for more counseling and allowed as how she had seen the signs but neglected to mention them to me. Ugh. Still, I can't believe my spidey sense didn't pick up a thing.
dunno why I wanna know, just a nosey ƒüçk.
Or maybe you sensed that I love talking about my work!
OK I think I missed the whole point of cat baptism then.
Seriously. Way to take the danger fun out of religious conversion there.
I hang out with rugby players. You find out the origin of MILF real fast.
I remember the insent v. incoming discussion, good times.
You might need some chain mail baptism sleeves.
OK I think I missed the whole point of cat baptism then.
Well if cats are not baptised, it's less likely other states will recognized their marriages.
Heh. Rugby players and MILF. Dude. I think I need to hang out with the rugby players at some point, I miss the testosterone.
SFistas! I'ma be in ur city, interviewin' 4 ur jobs!! Or, rather, in Foster City, but whatever. They just sent me an itinerary--get out to SFO around 5:30pm on Thursday the 23rd, and leave at lunchtime on Saturday. (Friday would be an all-day exhausting sort of interview). Not sure how much they'll have planned, or how much I'd be up for, but...I'll let you know!
(Seattleistas, I'm still working on getting to that point with your companies)
