My Commitments for 2010

Posted: December 31st, 2009 | Author: Dana Pascu | Filed under: Life, Personal | Tags: , | No Comments »

I’ve grown up so much in 2009 because I began to understand what really makes me happy. And found optimism in that. I am actually pretty enthusiastic about 2010 because I am sure it will bury the “less is more” placebo idea. Here’s what I’m gonna do about it, plus a rough timing:

  • Find and move into a proper “apartment for two” – January
  • Adopt a puppy dog (or two) – February
  • Read new books – All year long
  • Recycle – All year long
  • Quit smoking – By end of 2010
  • Swim – All year long
  • Go to Japan – July
  • Prevail happy and healthy – All year long

For the next year and beyond: More is more, baby!

About 2010

Posted: December 15th, 2009 | Author: Dana Pascu | Filed under: Advertising, Life | Tags: , , , , | 1 Comment »

In 2010, at the end of a job interview, the head of human resources asks the young maketing specialist fresh out of University, “What starting salary were you looking for?”

The marketing specialist decides to shoot for the moon. “I’m thinking in the range of $125,000 a year or so, depending on the benefits package.”

“Hmm,” says the interviewer. “Well, what would you say to five weeks’ vacation, 14 paid holidays, full medical and dental, a retirement fund with company matching to 50 percent of salary, and a company car leased every two years – say, a Porsche?”

The young marketing specialist gapes and says, “Wow! Are you kidding?”

“Yeah,” replies the interviewer, “but you started it.”
