Promotion Leads to Corporate Hair Style |

A year of spending late nights in the office, working overtime for no additional pay and doing every single thing asked by peers helped my friend receive a substantial promotion this past Friday. I was over at his place that night, sipping on a cold beer watching TV, talking about random video game features when he piped in and told me about the promotion he had received earlier in the day. He is not someone who shows that much emotion but from the twinkle in his eye even behind the smoke screen of words he said about not knowing how he is going to migrate into his new tasks I could tell he was super excited.
This promotion is going to put him in front of a sales team handing out ideas for both company changes, marketing moves and better business practices. His old position was as a gofer of sorts where he assisted in departments ranging from IT to marketing. The upper management took notice of his hard work and now he has a big new title. I told him he better get a new hair style that oozes authority. I then joked about cutting off his side burns and growing a mustache to show his team that he meant business.
He did say he would have to buy some new clothes, hair care products and probably get a shorter hair style for a more corporate look. Business people need to put off a certain attitude and everything from the hair style to cosmetics makeup for women can make a huge difference. I referred him to take a look at Tegan's Corner Store at http://teganscornerstore.ispeedway.com/ because they usually are helpful in this department especially if looking for a new hair care products. He ended up getting American Crew, Citrus Mint Gel For High Hold And Placement 6.7 oz, Men because it was selling for less then any of the local hair care stores in his area.
I can’t wait to hear how his first day of this new job goes. It proves that hard work and dedication will take a person far in life. There were moments when I could tell the job was wearing on him. This usually occurred after staying late and not being recognized by his boss. Turns out his boss was watching and it culminated in the promotion. If that isn’t motivation to keep the head down and press on I don’t know what is. Now if I can get a promotion at my job we both can start shopping for a new hair care products. I know it will happen just not sure when. |
