But it's so entertaining...I know you've seen it in the movies and on TV. And some of you may have seen it on the streets. There's nothing like two prostitutes fighting over a trick. You'd think this kind of mess would be reserved for streetwalkers -- think again, whores! I've seen it happen many times during my tenure as an executive. One particular memory stands out.....two senior level, successful, female sales executives.....both attractive and dressed in couture. Getting the picture? They were competing for an account (and ultimately a sale) and things began to get a bit strained. I colleague of mine walked in on them and noticed they were in a heated discussion about the client in question....leading to a nasty argument. Before it was over, the one wearing a St. John knit threw a half-full cup of steaming hot coffee at the one wearing a classic Chanel suit. Side note = St. John should never win, in my book! Moral of the story, as a coworker of mine always says: desperate is never pretty. And neither is a coffee stained, six thousand dollar Chanel. God how i wish i could have seen it first hand. But, as you can imagine, the images and stories have traveled the floors of our office building....and have grown along the way!
