who, in their right mind, would toss me a gauntlet?
are you kidding me? ok, i am passive, gentle and loving - yaddy yaddy yada - we know that - i am a redhead, i am old, and i am fierce - some of us know that. dis my friends and i will take you down - know we know that too.
so short story, outworld friend applied for a ..*shudder*... j.o.b. yes she knows better but it just is. social media manager. she is young, and enthusiastic and media savvy but didn't get an interview, and was in fact totally dissed - female. yes, it was a mans job, not her tender age that made her not a fit. so, ok, her sad...made the mistake of telling me. well, you know i googled them right off the hop. ok, good google presence, in fact the entire first page of google results - hmmm, that's impressive for anyone. it just really is. Or is it? whole page..let's see, two twitter accounts, one glassdoor post (its an employee inside look - in theory - of what its like to work somewhere) a facebook page, a website - looks complete covered.
But they dissed my friend. you know i am not going to be able to leave it at that with at least looking, right?
Twitter accounts, both dormant, webpage, oh my - look at that, the contact email doesn't work - either location, nice contact options. ok, if i have to go facebook i will - makes me want to lock my doors and go wash, but i will pop in if i have to. 164 likes? are you insane? i could post a cat pic, a lunch, or a pair of shoes and get more than that - yet their "company" is a social media company?
sooo, after i stopped reeling, and eventually stopped giggling - and texted her to really, really not consider working for them, no matter what, i went on a bit of a lark. One post. one. hit twitter once, g+ once with it and - oh my. look at that - second post first page.
you owned it and just got bumped by a single post. you, a social media "mogul".looking to not hire my friend.
if you think you cant get ranked, think again, now think about that one more time.
if you are a jerk too use primal tribe and bump us both off, but if you are a honey and want to help me keep making my point find my post on my g+ or on twitter and give it a nudge so we can see how long we can keep it there. yes, i know that's me being catty, but they tossed the gauntlet, i just picked it up to smack them with it.

and no, she isn't going to take the job not offered, but when she stops crying she will more likely join us here, but it wont be under me, she saw it on a job bank computer left not logged out - so goodness knows who, but as long as she gets here i am happy :)

Wow! I am So Staying on Your Good Side! I didn't even Get all of that, but it didn't sound like the other end of it is the Place To Be! You Go, Girl! You Got Game! :)
I wont lie, that me laugh. It made me think of a sign I saw the other day for Quiznos it was in a far corner away from the street hiding in the grass...and it was a small sign. We walked up to it and it was looking for a marketing director - I seriously was thinking maybe that was part of the test to see who would call and complain about what a terrible job they were doing advertising for someone in marketing
AHahahahahahahahaha....I hear ya, and just cause I'm in a fiery mood I'll go give em a bump :D
thats ok, it saw the search, i dont want them to go belly up, thank you for trying - and yeah, i have no idea what i did to my setting for that, wordpress attitude :) :)
I was gonna leave you a nice comment because the article hit close to home.. I know exactly what you're talking about. I don't have a lot of friends but the ones I do have, I have for a reason, keep ya grimy hands away from them :D
the one thing that will make me lose it, mess with my circle - its small, its tight, but oh my i will get fierce - make them cry i will make it rain. make them smile i will make sunshine on your next 5 generations - well, in my head anyway, as close as a little ol' scottish gramma can :) :)
:D Exactly. And the best feeling ever, is when it's reciprocated and you know without a doubt, it's your circle for a very good reason :D
