Ahh...
had nice, light supper. Did homework (4 hours). And got cookies from my financial advisor. That one's a little confusing - theoretically he quit the company, and I'm supposed to get a new advisor... but here's these "thank you cookies". But... don't look a gift wrapped cookie in the... where exactly do you look on a cookie? I never really pause to contemplate cookies.

I am now Officially Pissed at said financial advisor. I've been a client longer than you have, referred you to him (and some other people), and he's never done any of the things for me that he does for you. I think he wants to get into your dhoti.

Maybe he's afraid if he sends you cookies you'll think he wants to get into your dhoti...

He is vaguely metrosexual, but I'm willing to take that risk -- and he should be too. It's just bad business. He knows Lakshmi and I talk to each other.

I'm just confused... I got a letter saying he quit. Is he back with Amex Financial?

And, yes, I think he's being a jerk if he sent me cookies and not you. I had hoped you got cookies too. I really hope it's not a money invested with Amex thing... that's pretty sleazy too. This isn't a "spa day", this is cookies. I think presuming that all clients might like cookies is a fair guess, and I don't see how cookies in this venue would be a romantic overture. Especially Mrs. Fields chocolate chip cookies in indivual wrapped baggies. That's just not such a romantic thing.

Actually, from your description of the circumstances I would suspect that he's trying to maintain ties with some of his favorite customers, in the interest of poaching them to wherever he winds up...
