Who Are You? - Dexter


Heyyyy!! I am on a roll - ok not a HUGE roll...maybe more like a small dinner roll... šŸ¤”Anywho, I have another interview for my new series WHO ARE YOU? Tonight's guest is Dexter. Yep, that's it - just Dexter...a man with only one name...

 Mackgurl: Good evening, Mr. Dexter.
Mr. Dexter:  Good evening and it's just Dexter.
Mackgurl:  Okaaayyy Dexter. Pleasure to meet you. So tell me, what do you do?
Dexter: I am a payroll specialist.
Mackgurl: Nice! So you're who people call on when there's a problem or something that they want to change for a company's payroll department? I bet there are tons of reports. Am I close?
Dexter: Yes, to a certain extent. My job includes prelim and final benefits and payroll reports, allocation of funds, creating/reviewing spreadsheets (I knew itšŸ˜) all in keeping in line with state and federal guidelines and policies.
Mackgurl: How long have you been doing this job?
Dexter: Two months
Mackgurl: Oh okay so still in the honeymoon stage as it were.
Dexter: LOL yes, that's right.
Mackgurl: What do you like most about what you do?
Dexter: The opportunity for growth and advancement are very strong here.
Mackgurl: Ahhh have your eye on a corner office? Your own division? Hmmm??? Sheesh you will need a decent size desk for that office. You're fairly tall? What, 6'1?
Dexter: LOL, 6'2
Mackgurl:  Ahhh so not going to touch on the desire for that corner office, huh? Alright, Alright, we'll let that one go...for now LOL So what do you like least about your job?
Dexter: Hmm, the thing that I like the least is the over abundance of systems. At times, it can make a simple - or what could be simple - process very complicated. This is time consuming for the specialist, as well as the customer.
Mackgurl: Gotcha. Why have 12 systems that you have to communicate with, in sequence,  for something easily handled with say, 3?
Dexter: Exactly!
Mackgurl: Well, it certainly sounds like you have a clear handle on your new position as a payroll specialist. Heck, you already have ideas on how to streamline the processes! I'm sure that corner office will be yours in no time *wink*
Dexter: LOL, you're something else
Mackgurl:  So they tell me, so they tell me. Seriously though, I want to thank you so much for letting me borrow you for this interview. I truly appreciate you taking the time to chat with me today.
Dexter: My pleasure. Thank you for having me.
Mackgurl:  NowI have one more question before you go...but it's the one question that I and my readers really want to have you answer...WHO ARE YOU?
Dexter: Who am I?  That's a great question. I am a father...a man...a lover...and a true friend.
Mackgurl: Very nice...

 Well there you have it dudes and dudettes..the third installment of the WHO ARE YOU? series. My thanks to Dexter for letting me borrow him for this interview.

 If you know someone who you think would be a good interview - or heck, if you'd like me to interview you, drop me a line at mackgurl@gmail.com.

 Kisses,
Mackgurl

Oscar Chronicles - All By Myself

  Hola, mis amigos. I'm not going to ask if you missed me because - well, I already know you did. But more than that, I'm not going to ask because I'm sad, angry and hungry. Okay, perhaps I'm always interested in some snacks...Anyway, your Oscar is sad. Why? Is because a couple of weeks ago mi persona favorito decided to remodel his room. No really! He took all of the things out of the room - even my bed! At first I was angry thinking that he was kicking me out! He even took down his posters and emptied his closet! But then I started seeing him bringing some stuff back. Several pairs of his zapatos, some shirts and chaquetas. Some things he even put in the basura! Things that were too small or too old - you know how they do, right? So yes,  A MAJOR CLEANING. His room was like SUPER CLEAN.  He and his Papa also bought in new stuff. New zapatos, shirts, pants. The new stuff he put into a new bag. Nice! Good storage. It even has wheels!! So he can move it around a lot easi...

POP QUIZ

You guys ever take one of those online quizzes? " WHAT YOUR FAVORITE COLOR SAYS ABOUT YOU" ... Or the ones about your astrological sign?  "WHAT MAKES A CANCER HAPPY?". .. "IF YOU'RE A PISCES YOU ARE THE ROMANTIC TYPE"   If you did, were the results accurate? I mean did they fit you and your personality? I've taken a few of these sorts of quizzes - just for fun. Astrology? Yeah, I've read my horoscope from time to time. Most of the time the results and the astrological stuff kinda fit and sometimes I'm like - hmm, that is SOOOOO not me. Either way, they usually make me think wow, am I really like that? I took a personality quiz - basically it was to determine if you are left-brained or right-brained. Most agree now that there isn't a clear distinction and that most people have traits/characteristics of both. Here are my results...pretty good but definitely missing a few Like there was nothing mentioned about me being artistic or imagin...

Golden Haze

There I was...minding my own business (no really, I was - this time) thought I'd do some note taking, some observing (okay maybe not completely minding my own business), get some ideas for some posts...and the craziest thing happened. I started noticing a few people walk by my table, look at me - stare at me really, some snickered, some outright laughed. I was thinking sheesh, what's up? No one said anything - just looked at me, looked down at my table, looked at me, laughed or chuckled and walked away...that was until this guy walked over and sat down next to me. Immediately, my internal alert system went into overdrive!!! STRANGER DANGER!!! Then he says the craziest thing to me... Stranger: Hey, yeah so are you here regularly?  (ALARM IS GETTING LOUDER)  Me: Excuse me? Stranger: Nah, I'm just saying if you're here like on the reg, and you're bold enough to advertise the merch I'm straight going to switch my loyalty to you.  Me: DAFUQ!  (INTER...
