Referred by a Part-Timer

"Joyce, you know how we're short staffed? My sister is a college graduate and looking for a job, she'll be coming in next week for a walk in interview,"

"Did you have her put you as a reference? If she puts 'referred by' on her resume, then you and your sister get money,"

Wait. I can fix this. They don't often check their online applications, she can edit hers before she resubmits. We can still do this-ideas forming in my head before any plans did.

There I was, raising home, excited and pressed for time. I had to tell my sister pronto-the resume updates if sent a few days within, rather than having to submit a whole new one. And that meant a chance-A good one.

Several minutes later....

"Camille, you're not making any sense,"

"Put me on your application for 'referred by,'

"What?"

Oh-I forgot to tell her the news.
