I love listening in to other people’s telephone conversations.
Whilst on my way to see Cirque du Soleil with my Mum, I overheard the half a conversation which a young guy was having with (I’m guessing) a recruitment consultant.
The guy clearly wasn’t the sharpest tool in the box… He seemed to be talking about various IT type jobs, but I’m not convinced he had any real skills or experience. I got the feeling that the recruitment consultant was trying to wind up the conversation and get the guy off the phone.
He then said (and I quote)
“Yeah I’m quite interested in getting into consultancy… erm but I don’t really know what a consultant does”
Hmmm…
Love, if by some freakish chance of fate you’re reading this - let me tell you straight (as I know the recruitment consultant was trying to let you down easy):
At this point in your career you are not qualified to be a consultant… Not least because you don’t know what they do. kthanxbai x
PS - see this picture? That’s you, that is.

Can’t think of any humorous conversations, but I saw Cirque de Soleil on Sunday- did you enjoy it??

Oh my God I loved it!
I want to run away and join the circus. Although I can’t do anything remotely interesting…
Did you enjoy it?

It was wicked. I was with my brother who was petrified of being pulled up on stage, so he spent the entire time cowering (we were sitting right at the front)
It made me feel really useless though..I can’t even touch my toes..heck I can’t even reach past my knees!
