AnEx, thanks for verifying Jessica did actually move to Chicago.  I noticed she calls herself and actress and singer, so how would actually being on staff fit with the ambitions she still expresses?

I wonder if she&#039;s really even on staff, or just one of those I&#039;ve heard they sign up who is supposed to start employment once they open the new org building or &quot;expand&quot; afterwards, but of course then may never actually have to come to work.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[In reply to &lt;a href=&quot;https://www.mikerindersblog.org/thursday-funnies-313/#comment-506758&quot;&gt;AnEx&lt;/a&gt;.

I googled her.  She&#039;s a real estate agent in Tampa  with a firm called IMPACT (whose website is down) and has sold 1 home in Clearwater.  Apparently she&#039;s a singer also. And,  it looks like, something of an internet influencer, whatever that is - I&#039;ll have to look the term up one day.  So she&#039;s moving from the Tampa Clearwater area to Chicago to be on staff there, and she&#039;s beyond excited.  Very likely she was Tampa Org&#039;s public. 
 Good luck, Jessica; you&#039;z gonna need it. Chicago, Chicago, toddlin&#039; town...I like Chicago, its a fun place and people are friendly,  although the weather there is something else - brutally cold windy winters and hot hot summers...]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[CHICAGO IS GETTING DONE!
NOW WE REACH OUT TO ALL OF OUR EXPATS LIVING IN NASHVILLE!
Come home, come home, Steve and Carol Eddington! We also call to your darling children Lane and Dan! Oh, hear us and return, Max and Spencer Marier! Return to your home org! And to Danni Quee, we ask.......no, wait. Hold on. She&#039;s an SP. She felt that getting a degree at Belmont University was more important than saving the planet. Forget her. Oh, Kitty James, we call....no,wait, she dropped her body some years back so scratch her, too. Hear us, oh...........]]></description>

Hi Ran,
I hear you on everything.
My comment/opinion was not a carefully thought out, highly considered one.  
It was made in a light- hearted way and thrown out without much thought.
You&#039;re correct on all your points!
I don&#039;t know this woman.
Although in my own defense I never stated that I believed that I could predict something about her future based on how she appeared in this photo shoot!

What I did base my rather dismissive comment about her on were the many times when in that I encountered new staff members initially all gung ho and on fire and excited about being there, and within a short time, a few months, gone.  Just vanished.
From my 27 years of observations, there were a handful of staff who stayed, year after year, and quite a number of others who didn&#039;t last, although they started out brimming with enthusiasm about the benefits of being on staff.

But, you know what?  You&#039;re totally right, and I don&#039;t know this woman and she could turn out to be a terrific, long term Class V org staff member.  

And what you said about someone feeding her instructions to make her look like they wanted for this photograph, yes, I have no doubt that this is true.]]></description>
