07/06/2001 Entry: "My Adult Skin"

Hmm...
Today: I went to Ipsos-Reid today to give them the delight of reading my resume... I also included the fact that I knew Darrel's mother, who also works at Ipsos-Reid...

I wonder if that would actually improve my chances of getting a position there? Do they take her off the phones for a while, and talk to her about me? I doubt it.
Funny thing: I was also asked to fill out a questionaire about what I thought about Ipsos-Reid. Just a few questions. The odd part is that Ipsos-Reid is a commercial research company. Large companies who make ther products JUST FOR YOU hire Ipsos-Reid to perform market research. When you swear to someone asking to conduct a survey over the phone, you're swearing at an Ipsos-Reid employee. I thought it was rather cute that they would do research on themselves.
Anyway... I walked past quite a few friendly and 19-23 year old faces during my short stay at Ipsos-Reid. I also walked past quite a few reflections of myself. I'd swear I looked a lot older -- The baby-fat in my face has been replaced by adult-fat. I have a good idea of what I'm going to look like for the rest of my life, and I believe I will be quite handsome. All I need now are good clothes. sigh
I've no cigarettes. I think I quit, but I still have cravings.
I wonder if anyone is going to read my new site...
