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.
OOMPHAH! there ain't nothing like doing what you love and getting paid for it! It's like choclate cake with out all the calories.
