but orange, I have never thought of giving that a go!!! hmmmmm maybe not!! It's bad enough at the Board meetings when I stroll in in all my pinkness, stilletos and a "killer" suit and a cheeky smile

Ok spot history in a nutshell
shite at maths as in totally utterly crap, good at english and gift of gab, after a few years "bumming" with the best of them I landed a job as an office clerk at a motor dealership, due to a sudden need to have lots of money to buy nice things (it was a Jaguar dealership and I so wanted an XJS supercharger V12 rascal) and a general desire not to sell my body I actually worked hard got my accountancy qualification and did a bit of rapid job changing to gain experience. So in 10 years went from office junior to FD, but I am not a typical number cruncher boring accountant, I am more of a commercial animal (as my boss calls me), so there you go....and as I have said before I know not when to shut up and just go on and on and on, sorry
Anyway....see I just don't shut up......you really don't have to be good at maths to be an FD you just need to understand shit and explain stuff and let them think you know what you are talking about

Playing the game is such fun, isn't it, Pinkie? I've had a myriad of different jobs, but the current one is the most fun. I'm not making the big bucks, but I do live well and I have a great deal of latitude in how I handle business.
The public relations aspect of the job is probably the most challenging...as well as the most fun.
Let me just say that I would never accuse you of being a typical anything...
