An eventful and comical Tuesday (equipped with snow)
Hi Everyone!
Thanks for everyone who signed up for this newsletter in the past week or so! I appreciate all the love and support — it means a lot on these snowy mornings.
Crazy story from this morning. I got an amazing offer on UpWork, my new side hustle, and thought it was too good to be true. Turns out, it was. Luckily I realized it was a scam before anything happened. BUT the scammer was trying to use an actual company down in Arizona to get away with it.
I called the real company and pressed a random extension just trying to talk to someone to figure this all out- turns out the extension I pressed was the President of the company. We’ve been emailing all morning, trying to help him get this taken care of so his company’s name isn’t dragged through the mud.
Of course, I had to shoot my shot with him! What are the odds that I would (accidentally, on the first try) be connected to the President! I let him know if he ever needs some freelance work, I’m his girl.
Small world!! (Probably will write a funny story about this on Medium later)
Speaking of Medium!
Here are some recent stories I wrote that could use all the love they can get:
