Who Are You? - Bradley Charles


Hey there! So guess what?? I was able to wrangle, rope, secure 🤔? Yeah, let's go with that SECURE another interviewee for my new series WHO ARE YOU? Tonight's guest is Mr. Bradley Charles (don't you just love a man with 2 first names? LOL)

 Mackgurl: Good evening, Mr. Charles.
Mr. Charles: Good evening and please, call me Bradley.
Mackgurl: (Hmm, Bradley huh? Not Brad? Interesting): Thank you, Bradley. So what do you do?
Bradley: I work for the Social Security Administration.
Mackgurl: Nice! Do you like your job?
Bradley: I love my job.
Mackgurl: Yeah, that's great! What does one who works for the Social Security Administration (man that's a mouthful) do on a daily? Oh and what do you like about what you do?
Bradley: I award benefits to those who have been disabled. It's rewarding to know that what you do helps them find relief. You may hear about wait times but I try really hard to get the job done right the first time.
Mackgurl: Wow! That sounds like an important and very worthwhile job to have. It has to feel great to help someone like that.
Bradley: Absolutely!
Mackgurl: Tell me, Brad - I'm sorry, Bradley how long have you worked for the Social Security Administration?
Bradley: I have been there for 4 years.
Mackgurl: Okay, so I know what you like about the job - helping others find relief - but tell me, between you and me (smile) what don't you like about the job?
Bradley: LOL, hmm...What I don't like are the attorneys and their demands. They push, push and push. But they are trying to get awards but as much of the benefits as they can.
Mackgurl: Yikes! I can see how that could definitely be frustrating. I'm glad there are employees like you who go the extra mile to help their clients for the sake of the clients...
Bradley: Thanks, Mackgurl.
Mackgurl: Well, Bradley, it's been real and informative. Thank you so much for taking the time to chat with me this evening.
Bradley: You're welcome. My pleasure.
Mackgurl: Say Bradley, before I let you go, I have one more question for you...WHO ARE YOU?
Bradley: Who am I? I am more than the sum of the parts. I am strategic and calculating. I wear my feelings on my sleeve. Dallas Cowboys for Life!!!

 Well there you have it Guys & Dolls...the second installment of the WHO ARE YOU? series. My thanks to Bradley Charles 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.

 Smooches,
Mackgurl

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...

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...

Work It

I found an old photo of me from many moons ago. I'm talking acid washed jeans, big glasses, big hair - the whole 9 yards. It's just a casual shot - me and a friend chilling on the couch (uh, no I don't plan to post it LOL) - but it got me thinking about yester-year or days of old (sheesh, that sounds kinda knightly)...You know, those days when your biggest worries included "are the quarter pounder combos on sale this week? Is HE going to ask me out? For Prom??" (HE didn't but I went to prom anyway and had a BLAST!) This is also about the time I got my first taste of adulthood - A JOB! A real one! Like actually doing things for someone other than my parents and grandparents in order to maintain my allowance (yes, I was one of those kids). Employee ID, Clock-In/Out, an actual check - shoot couldn't tell me nothing. I was a working WOMAN after all (okay so a working TEEN but still, LOL)  Guess where I worked? No, go ahead I'll wait... Time's u...
