Pranks & Jobs

I just got pranked by my former office. I'm actually working the phones right now at the library. The phone rings and I answer:"Main Library Circulation, may I help you?" A man says he has a question about a word, metadata. I respond with a quick answer but in the background I hear lots of giggling and someone said Landmark. I perked up, thinking someone might be applying for a job at my former office but no, it was the weekly operations meeting and they decided to make a prank phone call to me. It's nice to be loved.

Look to the Prometheus Institute for details. Sounds a bit like the Four Agreements , don't you think? 1. be impeccable with your word 2. don't take anything personally 3. don't make assumptions 4. always do your best Which do you find most difficult?
