I get this all the time, especially when I meet someone and we exchange cards.
"What is it like to be Chief Alien? It is something I have always dreamed of but knew the chances were such a long shot I completely blocked even a thought of it from my mind. But since You are a Chief Alien, I just gotta know. What's it like? C'mon I am dying to know?
And you all were thinking how awesome this life could be for you. Well it's not all glamour, free space daiquiri's, and all the best party invites (though there is plenty of that). Real work goes on behind the scenes. Work over stale cups of day old coffee, and work hours way into the night. In fact to prove it......
After a long nights sleep in my Atmospheric Conditioning Pod, I wake to this:
A spattering of Trade News Emails.
The dashes are all the commentors via LiveFyre from Spin Sucks and check it out: I got 1 LiveFyre point! Totally rocking those LiveFyre points! When someone Like's your comment you get a point. Grow Blog and Creativity Unbound blogs are also pretty solid places you can earn these valuable points. I heard one day there will be a catalog with valuable prizes you can buy with them including diamonds, cars, and trips to Europe (editors note: this last part has not be confirmed and thus must be deemed highly unlikely)
One new out of way left field Twitter follower (maybe they want marketing help?! But I am a big bacon fan...sigh)
Two yellow highlighted work related emails, yes BOO-Yahs!! are part of my daily work life.
And of course the X showcases the daily email from Hong Kong to discuss the electronic bank transfer of $50mil to the US for a generous commission to me. In which I always respond "Send it in small bills to a secret location and its a deal". I get so little spam but this Mr. Lee is a shifty fellow.
So maybe that job you have now is sounding really freaking AWESOME now!
PS: Dear Email Marketer try making your way through to me via this inbox!
