Are You A Zebra?

STRIPES OR NO STRIPES; THAT IS THE QUESTION

I woke up this morning wondering if Zebras believe they are better than donkeys. (It is a good thing I did not have to work today because it got me thinking for a long time.)

Zebras seem like they always take extra care to look ‘just so’ and donkeys are frumpy in comparison. I still don’t know if zebras feel superior to donkeys, but I do know this: people judge other people by how they look all the time.

Case in point: last week, I held a first class ticket on Via Rail from Quebec to Montreal but was wearing jeans and a sweatshirt. As I approached the first class lounge, I was stopped and told to go to the back of the line for economy ticket holders. At the same time, a woman in a very smart business suit bi-passed the same line and let herself into the lounge, no questions asked. In this example, she was a zebra, and I was an ass.

Not convinced? Then ask 5 kids under four which they would rather be when they grow up and I will bet you dollars to donuts that at least 4 will say, “Zebra, I want to be a zebra.” Why? Because they know that zebras demand more respect just by how they look.

Do you want to go places? Then dress like a zebra and people will more likely clear a path for you. Sure a zebra is more likely than a donkey to be taken down by a lion or river croc, but that is the subject of another week’s newsletter.

Have a great week!

Dressing For The Job is very important in your job search. Do you need a suit? Not for all jobs, but you make a good impression when you dress up to show respect to the person who is interviewing you.

Good luck on your job search.

Every day at least one person will ask to find a data entry position.

Data entry jobs are the most desired, most favourable and most sought after position online. You will hear often data entry jobs are rare, few and far between and it’s true. If that’s the case, why do you see them scattered online so much?"
