So, you´re in the circle of trust sought after by many. You see each other daily from 8:30 am to 5 pm. Sometimes you stay late caring for her needs. She challenges you with more complex honeydo lists and has her relatives evaluate you. Did you complete your tasks on time? Were you efficient? Did you reach out to others to ensure that the job gets done? Can you work with others? Getting your foot in the door seemed easy compared to keeping the relationship fresh and exciting!
She calls you at all hours and carefully tracks your response time. She needs to know that you´re available, approachable and have a positive demeanor even when you´re exhausted and she´s in the mood for some kissing. She gives you a blackberry as a first month anniversary gift and you think that the she´s very generous up until even your bathroom trips are shared!
At times, you wonder if that Small Business that you were seeing was a better catch. Low maintenance, slower pace, flexible to your needs and considerate of your feelings. You felt important, like your opinion mattered and your actions made a difference. With The Corporation, you need to be careful about sharing ideas because the walls have ears and there´s many admirers waiting to take your spurs of creativity as their own. At times, you feel like you´re not alone…and you´re not! E-mails are being filtered and phone calls recorded…you must learn to be careful about what you say or do because everything and I mean EVERYTHING can and will be used against you…
Regardless, you love The Corporation and still see her in your future. You want her to bare your children and share years and years of professional bliss. In the midst of those thoughts, you feel a burning in your groin. It´s time, you think…to take this relationship to the next level…
As any woman that has been around, The Corporation is also good at putting up a virginal act. She won´t make it easy for you to unbotton her blouse, but she´ll tease you to the point of making you believe that you can. So, you meet with each of her relatives alone…explain your intentions and your need to grow the relationship. You sell the idea of how you can add value to her life and your loyalty and skills will make her happy. Some seem pleased, others don´t seem to agree. You might have stepped on some toes unknowingly during your courtship. Perhaps they had other plans for her, other candidates to be with her, an unknown agenda. You realize that she´s not the only obstacle but that you´ll have to win over the whole family.
You then turn to your friends for council. Peter, your most corporate savvy pal mentions a cologne that might help you get to the gold. It´s called Perceptions, by Chanel. The trick is, to wear it around the right people and at the right time, or it may come on too strong. You should always stop to smell yourself to ensure that the fresh scent hasn´t turned stale. Stale Perceptions can become negative Perceptions and instead of attracting, you´ll be quarantined and sent to solitary for an uknown period of time.
How can a simple scent of Perceptions be so important? You´d be surprised! As with any perfume you need to consider the following elements:
Test it on your own skin: Perfume doesn´t smell the same on all types of skin and everyone has a distinct chemical combination that will trigger a different scent on each one. You need to find the right Perceptions for you.
Buy the spray and not the concentrated version: Although stronger, the concentrated version isn´t recommended because it may upset stomaches, cause nausea in those around you and even, in extreme situations make them faint. Instead of causing a positive impression, you will be labeled the corporate skunk. The spray, on the other hand will leave a subtle but long lasting scent that is agreeable and will become your trademark. Perceptions will speak for you, without you having to say a word.
Buy bottles and give them as Christmas gifts: If you want to begin the year with stronger possibilities of formalizing your relationship with The Corporation, giving out Perceptions for her relatives to use will prove far more productive than letting them buy their own. With cheap knock offs and people wanting you to fail, you must ensure that your True Perceptions are delivered first that way that will be the impression that they have of you instead of those that others try to pour on them. Once they have, it´s very difficult to wash the stench away…
You decide to invest in Perceptions, although reluctantly, because you still don´t see how a simple scent can make such a difference, until…you walk through her door, bottles already delivered to the relatives, and your distinct smell fills the room, and you watch her slowly…unbotton her shirt…”you´ve earned it” she says, in her seductive voice…and you fall for her charm, and slip your hand into her bra…you´re on top of the world…
