Tuesday
Last night I was eating sardines (compliments of my Dad) with crackers and my last Diet Sprite as I was talking to Chad on the telephone. Chad and I definitely miss one another. We are going to likely meet up on Wednesday evening at the gym. His schooling takes up much of his time. I’m glad that he’s going for his ambitious whims in the field of Broadcast Communications. If only he (or I) would have won the two million dollar lottery winnings last night. Both Chad and I agree that ‘money isn’t everything’ but it most certainly helps.
Today was proactive selling day. I, of course, sold nothing. I did have a few reactive calls from yesterday in which I did sell; whereby, it wasn’t all that bad.
During the morning Service Committee meeting Ryan announced that he was resigning from the Committee if Dale Orlando stays on. I had lunch with Ryan yesterday. Today I had lunch with Ryan and his friend, Steve, and it seems Dale is back to his old meddling and interfering ways in the life of ‘Ryan and Joe’. There was a 2 o’clock meeting scheduled in which Dale was expected to resign.
Dale asked his Section Supervisor (Stephanie Bautista) to appear with him. It really got hot and steamy between Ryan and Dale. I barely said a word. I knew where Ryan was coming from though. I was tired of hearing ‘petty shit’ that Dale has told other people about me. For someone to actually KNOW ME is to KNOW ME. Dale knows me like he’ll know his son when he grows up (not fully).
I went home and called Chad but he wasn’t at home. I started to do aerobics when Chad called me.
“My outing on the weekend of December 6th is at the CONCORD HILTON,” Chad announced excitedly.
“Okay, I’m pretty sure I can go. I can probably rent a room there just to see you and hang out.”
Once again, Chad seems very happy with me as I am with him. We reconfirmed the likelihood of seeing one another at the gym tomorrow night. That’s a plus.
I tried to do aerobics again when the phone rang again. This time it was Leonard Perillo.
“Hi Mike. I wanted to tell you to keep an eye out on the paper for news over the next couple of days.”
“Oh really, do I get a hint on what it’s about?”
“Well, I’m being interviewed a lot about the Foundation. I’ve been very busy with business and lawsuits, too but by next week things should loosen up.”
“You need to rest, Leonard.”
“Yes, I know.”
I received a job offer out-of-the-blue from Debra Neal yesterday about managing a LAURA TODD’s Cookie Bakery outlet on Powell Street, making a mere $19,000 annually. She wants me to come in to meet with a guy named Peter Brent tomorrow. I may do it—for the interview—as it wouldn’t hurt to make a connection.
I washed clothes and went to bed a bit early this evening.
I also filled out the Employee of the Month Awards. I have the honor of announcing and distributing them to the office tomorrow morning.
Big Whoopee doo…
I have Chad’s photos here. They make me smile.
