Today is one interesting day!!
I was just thinking to myself I need to talk to someone in Finance at work to see what skills are required to get into jobs in our Finance department. And then today, a finance consultant moved in to the empty cube next to mine! Our whole area should be engineering so I am a bit confused how he got the cube assigned but that's great! He came by to say Hi and we chatted for 15 minutes. Like myself, he also worked at Apple before and we graduated the same year! He is very well travelled and really loves his job! Though I got my CPA long time ago and and he did not (nor did he feel he had to), he seems to be very successful! I guess the key is not to start out working in Audit for the Big Accounting Firms. :-( Well, at least now I know.
Here in US or California in general, people seldom ask if you are married or not, especially not on the first meeting but I guess being well travelled, he felt comfortable to check my marital status. Anyway, it's fine with me but he went on to ask if I like snokeling and what I do for fun and let's grab some lunch together some time... Honestly, I could not even remember his name at that point but I figured it's ok since we are now neighbors at work.
Then it was my quest for the Pixar Cars... I keep getting the yellow Ramone no matter which McD I visit or it's the Doc or Sally which I already got. Finally, the last McD I went swap my extra yellow Ramone with a Green Ramone!? Why is it so hard to get a legitimate purple Ramone??? :-( Is there one out there? Also, at one of the McD, there was a kid with his non-English speaking grandparents. He being only 5 or 6 did all the ordering. When he saw what Pixar Car he got with his Happy Meal, he cried and talked to the cashier saying he already have that one and want another one and they showed him what they have but he did not like any and started crying and pulling on his hair. At the point, I was looking at the kid in awe and my husband was smiling at me. I wonder if I look like that in front of others... Haha!!
