In order for you to have a good idea of what type of person Vice-Mayor Johnson is, I need to tell you about the first time we met, which was on my second day back in November. Now, be aware that I had never seen him before on TV or in interviews so I did not know his humor. So, I’m sitting at my desk in the front of the office, and Mike comes in talking to his Chief of Staff, Adora. Adora introduces me to Mike and I go to shake his hand. Well, he doesn’t extend his hand, but looks me up and down, and then says with a dead serious face “why are you hear? What can you do for me?” I’m practically pale-white, trying to think of a good answer, but end up giving generic answers. The Councilman is just staring at me with a dead-pan face for about 15 seconds and I’m standing there shacking. He keeps staring at me and then bursts out laughing and starts shaking my hand for about 15 seconds and I breathe a sigh or relief. So, don’t be fooled by Mike’s attractive personality on TV and interviews, he can be a nightmare to interns.
Sounds frightening but kind of funny...hopefully its only getting better
ReplyDeleteWow, I don't know how I would react to that. I got yelled at by a Senator and know the feeling. But at least that situation was a little more light hearted.
