Last week Nonie called to tell me of a florist that needed help with arrangements and wondered if I was interested. That would be a yes. I met another friend for coffee and she wanted to know if I was interested in doing some contract work for a company in town that sells homemade soap. When they get big orders, they call in extra help as needed which is what she had just recently done. That would be a yes.
Day One at the florist’s house consisted of showing me what to do and shoving buckets of flowers and vases at me to arrange. And I was in heaven.
No interview. No interview outfit. No selling my skills. No excessive smiling. No sipping the Kool-Aid…….and if I wanted to work more they’d love to have me back. Seriously????? You like me? You really, really like me????
This week I painted furniture. Tomorrow and Saturday it’s flowers. Who knows where I’ll make a buck next week, but gypsy employment is turning out to be an interesting gig.
