Devotion


I learnt something the other day:

Some people really, really love what they do for a living.

As I was getting my bikini section groomed and hot wax was being poured and ripped off my private section-my esthetician and I started discussing my upcoming vacation at the cottage.

I then politely asked her between groans of pain if she was taking vacation this summer and she said “yes one week-but if it were up to me I would never take a vacation”

I said “why the hell not?”

And she said “because I adore my job and want to be here every day of my life”

Really? Do you have another job other than waxing people’s genital areas and eyebrows? I silently thought and almost said aloud

Is this possible?

Yes it is. Shame on me for making such judgments and jumping to conclusions! Silly girl I am!

Diversity!!!!

(But seriously how could she like waxing so much.??? I always think it must be utterly disgusting to have to wax hair on people’s bodies but hey I guess I am wrong!

Good for her.

But honestly I love my job too-but I honestly love my time away from it too! Get a life waxing woman! Some hobbies! Some friends! Some interests!

(there I go judging again…I can’t help it… I used the mint body was him the shower. That must be why).

Strawberry tomorrow for sure.

Anyways….Made me re-think my career. Maybe I would not need as much vacation time if I were a wax lover?

I mean at this point is someone took away my vacation days? I would die. Or scream and shout .And I am not even kidding.

Anyways thought I should share this incident. It was just so ludicrous really.

So yes I now have a great set of eyebrow and a great bikini line. She is really good at her job. Next time I will ask her cell number and call her if in a jiffy And I am certain she would not mind her time to be interrupted for a waxing emergency (is there such a thing?)

But for now I am in awe. And a harsh judge. And a little disappointed in her actually. And stunned.
Yes body wash is in order. Keeping it real!
