It's time for the COO-COO Clock!

OH MY GOODNESS!! My boss is a looney bird! So yes the company is in financial distress so she is trying to be "creative" and think of ways to cut back. So as of this week, we can no longer send any FedEx or use our company credit cards without "permssion". Okay that seems resonsable. Then get this she asks me if we unplug the 2 phones that are not being used from the wall how much do I think that will cut our phone bill? What?! Are you kidding me! She really thinks that if you just unplug the phone your phone bill goes down? I had to explain to her that it wouldn't matter if thay are plugged in or not, it is the total amount of phones lines hse is paying for, not the actual phone set being plugged in. And yes, she is the owner of the company people!

Next, she proceeds to tell me that she is going to take these wooden paintbrush's to the showroom and try to sell them to get some extra cash. I had to call a previous designer on this one because she was here when my boss purchased these and I remembered her saying that she paid thousands of dollars for them and thought they were antique. We found them in an online catalog for a couple hundred dollars and most likely imported from China. To make the story even better she is trying to sell them to the same place she bought them from and doesn't even remember that is where she got them. They are going to take one look at those and die laughing.

I heard her on the phone the other day when her personal shopper from Neimans called in. She was asking if she could return a handbag? She thought that is was a little much with the dress, fur, and tote bag! WHAT!!! If you are soo broke why are you buying ANOTHER FUR! HELLO!!! At the end her shopper talked her into keeping the tote too. I know I am bad for evesdropping but I can't resist, in an office this small you know EVERYTHING that goes on!

Maybe once this job is all said and done, I can take this blog and write a book or movie. This has sooo surpassed The Devil Wears Prada a long time ago! I think I will call it Cruella Does Neimans!
