My daughter's nefarious plan
My 12 year old daughter, Bethany, is quite the little schemer. She comes across as a sweet, shy, somewhat quiet young lady. What a great cover! Yesterday she got me. Here is the story.
I had a busy morning at work yesterday. It started with someone asking me to interview two potential employees. One of the candidates was from Holland and one was from Mexico. In each case, I escorted them to my office and led them in. They came in behind me (this is important). They also followed me after the interview as I returned them to our recruiter.
I walked around the office several times meeting with people and discussing various topics.
At 10:00am, I was leaving the restroom. One of my co-workers told me that I had a sticker on my back. He removed it and gave it to me. It was a sticker from my family's visit to the Hollywood Entertainment Museum on Sunday.
When he gave it to me, I remembered a nice little hug that my sweet daughter gave me on Monday morning.
Imagine that! I wonder how many people noticed it and didn't say anything to me? I wonder what our candidates from other countries have learned about the US culture from this?
Anyway, she got me. Good job. My co-workers have enjoyed the story.

Now you can use this if you call up and give the prospects bad news.
"Well the interview was fine, however I had placed a sticker on my back prior to the interview and you negleted to mention it, I did this to check your diplomatic skills and sadly you did nothing to bring it to my attention. As such we will be passing on the oppertunity to hire you at this time."
