On The Job

JULY 7, 2016

Like a lot of people, I read the "Nanny Diaries" and watched "The Devil Wears Prada." What I took away from those experiences: Rich people are cra-cra. OK, maybe not crazy, but they definitely operate in a different world. I had my first job at 15 (washing communion cups) and haven't stopped working since. My days are not filled with lavish parties or private jets or business meetings in Paris.

The last thing they want to do is slog through a long, confusing sales experience.

Do you feel guilty when you take the time to do something just for you? It could be sitting down in front of Netflix. Maybe you love to disappear into the ether of social media with Facebook or Twitter. Many people love to sit back when there is a football (also known as soccer for my transatlantic chums) match on and forget about real life. I certainly fit into that category.
