Although I'm not the Book Review Editor, I do distribute the books that come in for review to our reviewers. Fortunately, I have several assistants who help me with the many Romance Diva related mailings I have to do. I thought you might like to see them in action. Or rather inaction.
My staff aren't exactly what you'd call early birds. It's hard to get them motivated. They nap a lot and try to hide from me. Sometimes they do both at the same time.
They also like to play dead, thinking I'll give them the day off.
When I finally get them up, I get dirty looks. (Cranky employees aren't that productive, let me tell you.)
Occasionally, I do get some work out of them.
But usually they pass out in the middle of a big project and I end up doing it on my own.
I thought about looking for a new staff, but it's hard to fire family. Plus, they're a fat bunch of snugglers and mama's babies. LOL
You are tough on your employees. Everybody knows employees don't like to start work until 11:00 or noon and then work four day work weeks. And don't forget about half days on Friday.
ReplyDeleteI guess it's a good thing I'm not in charge, I'd go bankrupt.
They look pretty tough to handle. And there is the Snuggle Factor they got going on. SF has been known to be addictive. =)
ReplyDeleteLOL }:) Those are great pictures! Your assistants are adorable.
ReplyDeleteWhy do they remind of me? Especially the part of passing out in the middle of a big project. *lol*
ReplyDeleteThose assistants look over worked to me.*g*
ReplyDeleteLOL! Great pics. :)
ReplyDeleteThanks to all your comments, my assistants have just asked for a raise. And they want extra treats.
ReplyDeleteLOL I love your assistants. I received mine in record time so maybe you could give the one on the desk the day off! He must have worked really hard.(grin) They are beautiful!

They look like a rough bunch, Kristen. I'd be sure and have a bodyguard at all times. *g*
ReplyDeleteOh my lord I'm jealous. Tell them to get to work, they don't get paid for their good looks.
ReplyDeleteI have a treat drying for them. I didn't want it to get moldy in the mail. Although I can't guarentee they'll work better afterwards.
lol!! That's hysterical! I love the black kitty sleeping on the desk! How hysterical!
ReplyDeleteAh, they're adorable!
ReplyDeleteThey're so cute! Your black cat looks like my Frodo. Check him out:
