With all the election hubbub raining down around us, there’s lots of talk about various people close to the candidates and their influence, roles, position, history, and at times, they speak for or about the candidate (or their wife).\u00a0 I always wonder who this “Senior Advisor” is. A college chum? A former co-worker?\u00a0 Certainly it isn’t something the average bear can just walk in and apply for, but I have to say, I’d do it.\u00a0 This sounds like a cakewalk! You don’t actually have to be the bagman, you don’t have to even sew the bag – you just sit back, point, and say, “hmmmm, I think….. that<\/em> fabric. With that pattern.” I’m sure it’s all much more complicated than I imagine, but I enjoy dreaming about a cabinet position.\u00a0 Because that’s what Senior Advisors get, ya know, they get to be in charge of small armies of people to carry out The Policies, and at first I thought the ATF might be fun, lots of excitement, you know, and I would be more qualified for that than FBI\/CIA. (I have, in fact, consumed alcohol, smoked cigarettes, and fired a gun. I have not spied on another country, and the only covert operation I’ve been guilty of is yarn smuggling. Into the house.)\u00a0 Really, there are any number of cabinet positions that would be a great fit for me, as long as I can delegate, and isn’t that what the Senior Advisor does? I do have control issues, but I’d work through them if the price was right.<\/p>\n

Unfortunately, I think I’m best suited for Senior Advisor on Knitting and Tomato Usage. Not having much luck finding either website with “.gov” paired with the skillset.\u00a0 Ah well. I am enjoying the day job anyway.<\/p>\n

Speaking of…. Did I mention Consumer Reports? I want to scream it sometimes. At strangers. I love them. (CR, not strangers.) I have to be careful I don’t love them too hard, you know, like a toddler with a baby chick on Easter. All I can say is, it’s gonna be fun to work on an account that can capitalize on the built-in passion I already have for them.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
