I remember studying Mel as she sat at her desk after explaining that she'd been previously self employed. I remember asking why she'd returned to employment within this role. It puzzled me.
I'd got mixed up, turned out she'd been working in another dept and had done for years, she'd been approached by someone more senior who thought she might do this job, you know... as a promotion.
She loved it, she said.
Her face was serene
Complete 'at peace' with herself, almost smug, but in a very nice way.
I liked her so much
Lovely woman
When she told me about a few interviews she'd been involved in, regarding one choice, she'd said the reason for offering the post to that candidate was because of the pause, to think, about how to answer the question.
I liked her explanation too
If someone says to you, "It happens in the kitchen, you'll know and you'll know what that means" with a questioning expression....
And you could decide exactly what it means,
would you think,
Naughty, maybe but... like the cream cake advert says - nice.
Or, as an answer : - "From the very thought of you"
