"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"

Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.

She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.

Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.

So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.

The words come later. The impression comes first.

Ok, My friend Office Jim was in the cafe last friday because it was Kosher Friday, and believe me the food is awesome. They were offering different drinks and such with every meal. My buddy Office Jim had a to do a presentation later that after noon so he had a little to much of his pre-game scotch and was slurring his words a little bit.

When he got to the front of the line and the cashier asked if he'd like Apple or Orange Juice, he slurred "No I don't like the juice." Some of our coworkers filed a complaint about it, now he might get canned.

I didn't tell anyone what he actually said, because one time he told me how much he hates the Mexicans.

How should I let my boss know that I want his job?

You call this guy a friend... he might get fired and you're worried about taking his job...

Wouldn't wish a friend like you on anyone.
