Just in case you’re new to The Zone, I am a lawyer. I have not actively practiced law in many years. I blame it on my children, especially Wizard, but that’s a tale for another day. Since my youngest child is now 9, lots of people have been asking me “Alto2, when are you going back to work?” I typically answer with a grunt. I despised job-hunting when I was a “real” lawyer, mostly because I never had much luck. Financially, I don’t need to work. Intellectually, I do.
Several weeks ago, Belle sprung an idea on me: writing precise, descriptive copy for real estate advertising — expensive real estate … verrry expensive real estate. I was interested, but she had to check with the big bosses at her company. This morning, I interviewed with the big boss-lady, who offered me the job! Belle’s local agency receives 2-3 listings per week, and I am now her wordsmith. I’ll get paid per piece, and I will have access to the lavish estates and condominiums Belle sells regularly. How cool is that?
I am excited and a little bit nervous. Wish me luck!
Omigosh how fabulous! Oh, much luck heading your way. Have fun. I am insanely jealous :->
Wishing you much luck! I don’t think you’ll need it. You are really good with words. I don’t suppose they’ll let you take photos while you’re wandering around those lavish estates? Just so you can show us around, too.
Very awesome!
Congrats!! It sounds like the perfect job for you.
The jobs sounds lovely. Congratulations!
