РУССКАЯ БОГИНА

1. When you are sad -- I will help you get drunk and plot revenge against The sorry bastard who made you sad.

2. When you are blue -- I will try to dislodge whatever is choking you.

3. When you smile -- I will know you are plotting something that I must be involved in.

4. When you are scared -- I will rag on you about it every chance I get.

5. When you are worried -- I will tell you horrible stories about how much Worse it could be until you quit whining.

6. When you are confused -- I will use little words.

7. When you are sick -- Stay the hell away from me until you are well Again. I don't want whatever you have.

8. When you fall -- I will point and laugh at your clumsy ass.

9. This is my oath.... I pledge it to the end. "Why?" you may ask; "because you are my friend".
 

Friendship is like peeing  in your pants, everyone can see it, But only you can feel the true warmth.

Naturally, I received a response that the position had been filled. This email came directly from the President of company I applied to. The lousy thing about, however, was that I had received the rejection notice in the form of an autobot response. For such a high level position and after having put on my "A" game on, I antipicated some type of human correspondence issuing me the cut.

In any event, it makes me wonder how a jobseeker really finds opportunity? Between monster.com and the myriad of recruiters out there, one would assume the hunt for employment is more "jobseeker-friendly" than ever. However, I am beginning to believe the opposite. With the onset of job boards via internet and global communication, headhunters and hiring managers believe they the will find the "perfect" applicant somewhere amongst the masses. Before it used to be that the "Ideal Candidate" would be the consummate standard to measure against. But in today's market, that "Ideal Candidate" description has become a steadfast checklist, and by all means if you don't meet each criterion then you are subpar and unworthy of even being given a rejection from a breathing soul. . . .

And then there's the issue of the 100 recruiters who received my resume. Most responded that I do not qualify, but they shall "keep me in the database". Since when is a top-producing salesperson not qualified enough for a salesperson position? Just because I sold Service A and haven't sold Product B shouldn't throw a salesperson out of the running. That is simply a minor detail. Seeking out the exceptional, powerhouse salesperson with NO knowledge on the product is irrefutably a far better choice than finding a candidate who is the expert on Product B, but is merely adequate at best.

Companies, headhunters, and HR managers need to be reminded that SALES IS SALES. Teach the product and it will be sold.

Now that I have "officially" stopped working, I have to say how empty my life feels. Perhaps I got through the loneliness because I threw myself into my work. But that is now gone. As is the love of my life.

I think about you at least once a day. I wonder if you remember us. I have never stopped caring for you. I always will. My heart is broken now that I will never have interaction with you again. It kills me because I have never gotten over you. I can still remember being with you as if it was just yesterday. I miss being loved by you.

I am quite devastated. Of course I knew the job was ending months ago, but I don't know why it is hitting me so hard now. I feel this overwhelming sense of emptiness in my life. I have to share it one last time. I will always remember what I had - my wonderful love affair with something that could never be. You shall remember those days. You know who you are.

It was fate that I stumbled across this job posting for a VP of Sales. I haven’t come across a description that encapsulated me on every accord.

One of the traits required is if that the candidate will choose to become part of a High Performance Team that will become Legendary. I have realized legendary status in my industry. Albeit that is soon going away, I aspire to be known as a legend again in another industry. It’s a rush and I’m a junkie for being of “National Championship Caliber”

I took at chance and engaged the President directly with a very unprotocol introduction.

We shall see how this pans out.
