How to Sabotage Your Job Search: Part One
career advice, job strategy No Comments »
Just this morning, I called a client to confirm his appointment with me. The only number he’d given was his cell phone, which I dialed. For approximately three full minutes (I timed it), I was constrained to listen to a piece of music the man obviously thought would entertain his callers. Although the music was pleasant, I found it rather excruciating. I had to listen to the piece in its entirety until his actual voice mail kicked in, allowing me to leave a message. But that, too, was another minute’s wait as I was treated to the man blessing me in two languages and asking me to have an absolutely wonderful day in the light of the Lord. As he represented business, I found the patience to hang on … by a thread.
