Gold Pile Posted September 5, 2008 Posted September 5, 2008 My biggest client is always following any trendy management philosophy that comes along. Each time they claim this will be the perfect way to increase efficiency, blah, blah, blah. I don't mind them wasting their time/money on this crap, but I hate it when they decide their suppliers (like me) must be on board too. Tuesday morning I'm sitting in a NY training center for a 2 day course. I'm pissed off and it shows. The instructor approached at break and said I didn't look happy. I told her exactly what I thought of her money wasting course. To my surprise she basically agreed. Said she made a good living designing courses around the endless stream of management trends. This morning (Thursday) I woke up in her bed. It was a pretty fun time last night. She is an interesting lady. Aprox every other week she teaches courses at her school. She has an assistant, 1 classroom and an office. When she's not teaching she reads business magazines etc looking for emerging trends to build courses around. She reads at home, in the park, or at the beach...no need to be cooped up in the office. At 40 she is in fantastic shape and has never married. She says her career brings in a steady supply of men and usually there will be at least 1 doable guy in each class. No strings and they're often married but they are also from out of state, so it's not very messy. Clearly she's been around some so I asked how I ranked. She smiled, rolled off the bed and dove under it. She came back up, said it was fun and handed me a Snoopy doll. I laughed and said I was better than that...I reminded her about the intense moments she begged me to do a certain move again. She took back the doll, went under the bed and came back up with an Elvis bobble head for me. She had me reach into a shoe box and remove 1 item....it was a yoyo. When she went to the bathroom I looked under the bed. A few snoopys, and lucy's and a few of the African American peanut too. Several Elvis bobbles, a number of baseball gloves, several "1st prize" ribbons, some small toy cars, and a set of marble Abe Lincoln bookends(for the studlyiest dudes, no doubt). The shoe box was full of misc cheap toys. I think I'll sign up for a course next month....I want to try for a baseball glove.
sam light Posted September 5, 2008 Posted September 5, 2008 :lmao: In my book an Elvis anything is worth more than a BB glove. What's the name of the African American peanuts gang character anyway?
Author Gold Pile Posted September 6, 2008 Author Posted September 6, 2008 :bunny:Fantastic! Love it!at least someone did:mad:
Storyrider Posted September 6, 2008 Posted September 6, 2008 What's the name of the African American peanuts gang character anyway? Franklin. ......
rod_in_gtown Posted September 6, 2008 Posted September 6, 2008 why would you want to go for the bb glove? Won't that mean that you're the catcher? I would've looked around for strap ons maybe that's the prize for letting her use those.
sam light Posted September 8, 2008 Posted September 8, 2008 Franklin. ......Thanks! that was driving me nuts. When I was a kid they just stuck him in there will no real character development. easy to forget
Author Gold Pile Posted September 9, 2008 Author Posted September 9, 2008 This episode cost me my relationship with Kelly. She was dumped by her husband and she was finding comfort in my bed. Without me around for a few days to keep her strong...she ran back to him. To my suprize he took her back. I'll try to comfort the woman he just dumped to go back with his wife. It's a long shot

OpenBook Posted September 9, 2008 Posted September 9, 2008 What guy...me or him ?? Both of ya's. Don't worry, GP, women are like buses -- another one will come along in the next 15 minutes.
Author Gold Pile Posted September 10, 2008 Author Posted September 10, 2008 Both of ya's. Don't worry, GP, women are like buses -- another one will come along in the next 15 minutes. when I was younger I would have agreed 100%. Now the good looking ones appear less frequently and the ones that turn up every 15 minutes usually weigh as much as a bus:eek:

Author Gold Pile Posted September 20, 2008 Author Posted September 20, 2008 How did it go?Thanks so much GPfan! Total failure on that operation. I feel like I'm headed into one of my sexless periods. Not an entirely unwelcome break from the dating scene. But I'll get back on the bike again soon enough.
nowhereman82 Posted September 20, 2008 Posted September 20, 2008 Great story. Sounds like the woman really knows what she wants from her life. So awesome that she feels it necessary to gift her one night stands. Does that make you a prostitute?

So awesome that she feels it necessary to gift her one night stands. Does that make you a prostitute? I think it's more an act of friendship than anything else. I might be a Pro if I only I could:o
