So the Regional Director of Sales and Marketing called me into her office yesterday morning. She asked if I was happy with my job and if everything was going ok for me. I said yes, everything's fine (except I'm getting paid so few peanuts a monkey in Africa would be a king compared to me). Then she said that's good. I'll bet she didn't hear the peanuts part. Maybe I should have actually said it aloud.

Anyhow, she proceeded to say I had too little makeup on. And that I could do with more lipstick. Then she asked when my birthday was because she wanted to buy me a "ruby red" lipstick. Yes, those were her exact words. Ruby Red. I grimaced. She seems to think I would look nice with a fat dollop of scarlet on my mouth. I beg to differ. Anyway, I'm very happy with my current staple - MAC Lipglass in Lust. It is the most wonderful shade of lipgloss I've ever come across. And it looks positively gorgeous on anyone. And I'm starting to sound like a complete bimbo.

Having said all that, I do think the RDOSM is a nice person. She's a little eccentric at times but she has a good heart. And she cares for people. I mean, she wants to buy me lipstick, for crying out loud! Sweet lah... touched me deep deep...
