I Blow Bubbles Imagine planning your life around something you have no control over Imagine losing your job because they didn’t like your performance okay, imagine this: Imagine wanting to blow bubbles whenever you worked at the Champagne factory imagine playing instead of working Imagine you were working at Dom Perignon, near the factory, and if you didn’t care about your job you just wanted to drink so you looked like a drunk whenever the executives checked you out. Imagine when someone asked you what you do, you answered by saying with an ethnic drawl, “I make bubbles.” Or maybe it was “I blow bubbles,” or even “I bleed bubbles.” You get the idea. Are you supposed to sound like you know what you’re talking about when you can only talk about blowing bubbles while you are drunk drinking champagne while you’re at work? That’s something to think about. Do you drink the free champagne? Copyright Janet Kuypers. All rights reserved. No material may be reprinted without express permission.
