The 'rich of the richest'. . .
Published Feb 27, 2005
Becky was the manager of a jewelry store that catered to the 'rich of the richest' in Boca Raton. She was seeking a qualified person to fill the recently vacant position of salesperson.
Sarah comes in to interview for the position. Becky looks at Sarah's resume and notices that Sarah has never worked in jewelry before.
"If you don't mind my saying so, for someone who has never worked in jewelry you certainly are asking a pretty high salary. That's chutzpah, wouldn't you say?!?" asks Becky.
Sarah thinks hard for a moment.
"Well... I suppose," replies Sarah, "but you must understand, the work is so much harder when you don't know what you are doing."
(I have some of these people working for me now ....)
