Fingers crossed

A few years ago, I had somebody interview for an open position and halfway through the interview, I was thinking this kid is smarter than I am.

She didn't know everything I knew about my job, but she knew more than I did about some aspects of our field. It did cross my mind that if I hired her, she might expose me for a fraud, they'd fire me and promote her, and I'd be living in a box.

I hired her anyway, she picked up the job very quickly, and when she exceeded all of her goals, I got to take credit. When she left, it was to take a job that's basically mine at another company.

Today I interviewed somebody smarter than I am. I'm hoping lightning will strike twice.

The skills was promptly. I offered these glasses to my dude to be a gift idea and husband was happy with them. He really prefers Oakley glasses. He understand that it is so and when I demonstrated him the photos of your glasses after they appeared these people seem to be preferable over the photos. Highly encouraged!
