Back to work

I’m back! The trip was wonderful. People, please travel by train. Let’s convince the government that the rail network should be further expanded and improved. While on the road, I had plenty of quiet time to work, to read, to think as well as to enjoy beautiful views. The meeting in DC was also very productive with several promising projects and successful resolutions we agreed on.

Now, back to my story about how I ended up living this busy and exciting life of a business professional.

So, the girl of my age who was sitting at the reception counter looked at me very intently for a few seconds and then asked very politely, if she could help me. What was I supposed to say? That I was hiding from the police and I had no idea where exactly I was?! I felt very stupid and, naturally, just mumbled in hesitation: “Hi . . . Hello. I’m . . . hmm. I am…” Like an idiot, seriously. Then I did something I didn’t expect that I would ever do. I stepped forward to the counter and all of a sudden introduced myself in a calm and firm voice which I did not even recognize:
“Hello. I am Liza Klim, your new company PRESIDENT.”
Why on earth did I blab that out? I’m still unable to explain. I think it was some smart-mouthed fairy that pulled me by the tongue and made me say such a crazy thing! The receptionist’s eyes opened very wide. I stopped short and gasped expecting the girl to get mad or at least to laugh.

Now, you guys guess and tell me what she did….
