Monday

Oy, what a Monday! The ad ran in the paper, the phones went nuts all day, and our regular customers had to vie with applicants. The bad thing is, we spelled out the qualifications both in the ad and on the phone, and out of thirty resumes, only three were remotely qualified. Sigh.

But - good news here - I wore a regular shoe *all* day. Yep, no boot. I did wear the compression hose on that foot, but only a little discomfort and no real pain.

And this morning I started the new book. Spent the weekend reading editor notes and brainstorming. Got the plot nailed and went with it. Five pages, and I enjoyed it.

Tomorrow I have the Underwriting manager of one of our insurance companies coming in for a meeting AND a doctor appt. Busy day, and I'm kind of dreading it. I'm so far behind at work.

I did speak with a couple of companies about on-line applicant testing (both skills and personality profiles) and am considering that.

Now though, I'm going to go off and read....
