Newspaper Ad

I answered an anonymous ad in my local newspaper:

Wanted:
Couple or team to be
Caretakers/Landscapers/Chauffeurs/Security
for elderly self-sufficient couple
and 30-acre estate. Must have good
driving records. Apply to
P.O. Box ####### in care of
this newspaper.

Now, everyone knows not to apply to anonymous want-ads. How stupid do you think I am?!

So, I immediately applied.

I just typed up a letter telling "them" what I know about what they want, pointing-out that I don't know everything, but I do know where to go for help, and sent it along with my resume, which I tweaked to fit the job at-hand.

I now consider myself officially out of the corporate world. This is getting EXCITING!!

Stay tuned.
