Some people don't know whether they have lost a cow or found a piece of rope.
Hallway of Life - # 2 - Auctioneering
I was still in my teens, working in the real estate office my sister got me into and was reading the jobs section of the newspaper. Something must have triggered my inner needs and up popped this advert that said 'Wanted, a young man needed for our Records Section', and I thought, that's me as all along I wanted to be a rock star. The advert said to apply in person and gave an address in Castlereagh Street, Sydney. I rolled up and walked down this long corridor to the elevators, and then up a floor and then down another long hall to a small reception area where a lovely grey-headed lady with a headpiece on was sitting answering calls on a very large switchboard with plugs coming out of it everywhere – something that you could now do the same job with just using your iPhone!
Something was strange about my walk down the corridor as I noticed photographs of racehorses dotted along the corridor wall.
