Three years is the short amount of time since we first met. I was interviewing her for a position at work (ahhhh there some of you just jumped off the side, hope you brought your water wings)...now the rest of you still reading.
I have been working in the corporate world for over 15 years and interviewed hundreds of people over the course of that time and this is the fastest interview (well that an offer was made) I have eveer conducted.
The entire thing took minutes and I asked if she wanted to tale a tour...oh I suppose I should mention she had already interviewed with two other departments for two different positions before this so the fact she even showed up in itself is amazing (and yes she has said she was seriously thinking of not accepting the interview).
As soon as she left..I spoke to HR and said I wanted her on the team. While at that time we had our own lives with spouses and children and there was nothing more than this is a very special person that I saw such a fire in (and yes folks when she reads that she will be rolling her eyes).
Now in hindsight I can say that there was some pull that I cant explain other than this person is someone you want to be near in some way...but you know what they say about hindsight.....
