Business Quote by Melissa Jensen

““She peeked inside the box,then slapped the top back down and glared at me. For a second I wondered if I'd broken some rule of business or cultural propriety. "Homemade?" she demanded. "My grandmother." She peeked again,and groaned softly. "I don't know whether I love you or hate you right at this moment." She closed the box firmly. "Of course I'll supervise your article." "The cannoli weren't meant to be a bribe.I just...thought you might like them." "I'm sure I will," she sid crisply, "a great deal.Just as much as I will not like the extra twelve hours on the treadmill." Then her face softened. "Thank you.What a treat. What I started to say about mentoring is that I don't normally do it. Apparently I scare students. But I would be happy to help you however I can." It was my turn to thank her. I added, "You don't scare me." "Really?" She stared at me over the sharp frame of her glasses. "Well,maybe a little," I admitted. "Sometimes." "Excellent. Now skedaddle.””
