Topic: Your Investment Will Bubble: s quiet, sometimes my radio is blaring and I am singing along. More often though, I am on the phone. I try to catch up with business calls or touching base with friends or my mom. I am not one of those that can sit idly or yell and scream at other drivers - though I see and, sometimes, hear plenty of that. This particular commute seemed to be going at a snail's pace, about 3 miles per hour. As I slumped into my seat and looked through my CD case, something strange was happening outside. It was just starting to pass from dusk to night when I caught a glimpse of something unusual. A bubble floated down the front of my car. That's what I said, a bubble. As soon as the first disappeared down the front of the car, several more appeared and then all of a sudden the air seemed to be filled with bubbles. I looked in my rear view mirror and failed to see the source. I looked to my left - nothing - and then I looked to my right and my eyes met the driver of my neighboring vehicle. We both smiled, shrugged and continued to look around. After several seconds and a lot of neck twisting, I spotted where the bubbles were coming from. In my blind spot, about three cars back on my right, I saw what looked like a plastic gun sticking out of the backseat window of an SUV. Bubbles galore were being shot out of the "gun" and filling the air. I couldn't help but forget about the miserable traffic I was facing and just smile, smile, smile. When traffic began to pick up the SUV eventually passed me and I saw, what appeared to be, a fresh-faced twelve-year old gleefully pumping bubbles from her back seat perch. She waved and continued on her quest. She had succeeded in causing spontaneous happiness along her way. I cannot imagine that her intent was too far off from that. Not one to reside in misery for long, I was very appreciative of the respite and I believe it carried me through the rest of my commute and well into my evening. There will not always be bubbles to lighten your way nor will there be a quirky kid to think of an ingenious way to change the attitude of dozens of drones caught in the same plight. It's Friday. Shower your co-workers, employees, employer, candidates, clients, and/or hiring managers with bubbles. The worth of a smile: the interest alone creates the ROI you not only need but deserve. It's an investment you can afford. © by rayannethorn…; Added by Rayanne at 2:06am on March 5, 2010

Comment on: Topic 'BIG Mistake!': mething quiet. That said the focus is still on where the next present is coming from, even now it being 3 days after Christmas :) The second part takes me back to my days as a new professional (2-3 years into my career). You remember the times, here I was in a relationship, we were both earning money after years of borderline poverty going through university, out for dinner with 3 other couples in basically the same situation. We went out for dinner, as was the case when there was 2 incomes and little responsibilities. At this restaurant, no one wanted to look at us, serve us.. nothing. We obviously weren't their key demographic. I remember the guy taking our order, he literally didn't even look in our direction as we were giving it.. I kid you not. The restaurant wasn't that big, I thought we were pretty hard to miss, but miss us they did. Quite possibly in the top 10 worst dining experiences we have had EVER. Now we are probably closer to their key demographic, but we will not go there, and neither will our friends, or anyone else we tell this story to.…; Added by Dan Nuroo at 7:22am on December 28, 2009

Comment on: Blog Post 'A Friday Quickie': the last few years are detractors. Many people say, but dude…you write recruitingtools.com. I say I know. But there is a purpose to that… My day to day is to make placements. Sure I am on these sites, but I am there for a reason and I stick to that reason. I never got onto Twitter or Facebook to brand myself or anoint myself the King of Personal branding like someone else… It’s important for people to recognize that this is a business. Those people that are online and visible and that you think are the leading experts in your field are typically not. Yes I said it. They are not the experts and if you compare the $$$ they cash in on at the end of the day, it’s the quiet guy in the back of the office that is not on all of these social networks pretending to be the brand king that are the big billers. Yes, I said that too. Recruiting is Recruiting and the process from 1975 is the same process as today.  No I was not recruiting than but you get what I am saying. Well said Jerry. Now I’ve got to run so I can go tweet this out before I update my FB status.…; Added by Ryan Leary at 12:51pm on September 17, 2010
