Hmmmmm I think we're going to have to have a bidding war for Kat! I could use an administrative assistant too!!!

James - You don't have to be anything to have one, just put an ad in the paper and hire one :)

Flat Coke - Nope, not puke, guts, blood or anything like that. Just a bunch of getting tea, coffee, setting up golf tee times and playing on the computer.

Jordan - Does that mean you'll come to live in CA??

Cindy - Do want to hire me just for me to spray your office? Wow... life will be REALLY good working for you.

James - Cindy had dibs and btw she knows jujitsu.

Jane Doe said...

See Jess... people would love to do what we are doing and here we take it for granted, or at least I do. So why are you trying to stay of the internet? You should take online classes and make it a productive work day :) Or... visit my blog more often! :)

Taking online classes are great! Such a good use of time. But i don't see what you ladies like about not doing anything. I'm such a workaholic it's ridiculous. I would be bored running after some executive person. I go crazy if i don't have something to do at all times.
