Profile of a Headhunter

There are headhunters and then there are headhunters par excellence, they are the best horse trader in the business, if the call went out to get one particular kind, this headhunter had contacts throughout the industry about the top talent. From walk ins to top college campus recruiters all were in his worn-out rolodex and speed dial. He had a dedicated secretary who knew where all the misdeeds were. Money was of no object, but if the talent turned out to a dud, he was quickly Shepard’d out by armed Pinkertons guards. Talent was selected upon maturity, common sense, inquisitive mind, & be able to work under pressure and have great sense for family values and loyalty. The hatchet man had an uncanny talent to pick talent from all the top diploma mills. He never selected anybody recommended by board member. There was no Microsoft at the time. He wanted people with a track record or no record at all but as long the candidate was willing to learn, use his past experience to enhance to companies bottom line.  

As a courtesy he had closet full of cardboard boxes that he would personally give to the fired manager, or the VP in question. He would have the individual walk the entire length of the dept floor with all his family photos and degrees from his wall, as the entire floor looked upon him. I have seen senior manager on their knees begging for their jobs, but their corporate sins were too many to forgive, forget, and overlook. Before the fired Vice president or manager hit the lobby his departure was already on the grapevine & his reputation destroyed. Such are the tales of the financial industry.

TALE OF TWO SISTERS "BOLO"

By -
      "BOLO" "BE ON THE LOOKOUT " The spring equinox had just ebbed itself out of the yearly calendar and the summer Solistics had just come into its own. The trees were full of newborn leaves and fruits were begging to be picked and to be savored by humanity. The swans floated on the lakes that looked like glass, the sky was punctuated by the birds that brought sweet songs to our ears. All this was under the glorious heaven on a summer day, and there was peace even for just a moment, for the world to catch its breath and to enjoy what the good Lord has made for us.  Just when one would think all is well with the world a " BOLO"  notice was sent out from the handmaidens who lived across the river Thames the two sisters  MI-6 to MI-5   " Religious Upheaval ". The Pope had many grievances with the non-catholic world, that world was quickly going out of control, the treasury was being rapidly being depleted due to past missteps and violation of huma...

THE ODD COUPLE

  THE ODD COUPLE: NOT FORGOTTEN. The marriage of very cold icy Coke and salty Peanuts. Some who have lived in the southern part of the USA have never heard of this and some have.  It's the best combination ever, it's a friend of the hungry, the meek, the poor, traveling preachers, the miners and hobos, and mechanics with dirty hands. Nothing beats this simple recipe, put the salty peanuts in a glass bottle of icy coke and drink it all up. Sustenance is on a cheap and affordable way for the common man on the go. City folks keep the tradition alive no matter where you are a free history lesson on YOUTUBE, works with all smartypants, nerdy, and techies. Sir, "Can I have another"? "Go Ahead, why not " God bless you May all be well with you DMD
