Sleuth Home - Message Boards - Detective Agency Recruiting

Jul-16-2010 00:53

I am considering recruiting a group of detectives to start a new, and very posh agency.....so we can use our skills and intelligencia to assist each other and build up a great new agency. Please contact me if you are interested.

I'm flattered, sir, or may I call you Peter. And, flattery will get most people anywhere. I like that....I like that very much. ;)

Okay. You're on my "short list"!

I say there, Peter, old chap, we need someone with Podiatrist and Concierge contacts in London. Are you falling in love with this beauty and/or her wit?

Why Cordelia, I do think Miss Rose may have stumbled upon your true identity. Although I highly doubt you are sitting alone, especially when you are wearing that black leather outfit.

*Hands Cordy her usual drink*
White Russian, no ice, no vodka... hold the Kahlua. ; )

Shell, honey, you know I'm strictly a G&T girl. Unless you offer me the Dom Perignon, of course.

Phaedra, I don't know why you think my claws are out! Honestly. It's not like curiosity's bad for me - unlike some...

Is this a rauckus? Honestly, I was just trying to figure out this Agency business and thought I could start one either on my own or with other "unwanted" and "like-thinking" newbies.

Cordelia, your curious questioning came at me like getting rammed like a mother lioness who's had her cubs disturbed, and while I don't know Shell, who apparently came to my defense, I have no desire to stir bad blood between either you and her, you and me, or her and me.

Anyway, it looks like Peter O'Neil has taken a liking to me, although Eduard Langston questions his motives. huh?!? But I'm in London now, and working on those contacts.

Btw, is it okay to have a laugh on the "Agency Recruiting" MB? I sure hope so. Everyone seems to be entertained. So I say we break out that Dom and enjoy each other. No cause to be problematic, if we can ALL have a laugh!

Ahhhh, Sir Eduard. I thought you knew me better. I have but one love and she is no longer with us. And while I endeavor to polish my gentlemanly skills (which I am under no illusion will ever approach your fine English upbringing), this Irishman cannot help but to appreciate the company of both attractive, intelligent members of the fairer sex and a good drink.

And similar representatives of our professional colleagues present with Ms Rose? Why question my motives? Mixing business with pleasure does not mean I am either ignoring one or obsessed with the other.

Well, I'm still not sure why a couple of interested questions should provoke the reaction of a lioness, but hey, such is life. Sorry if you felt hassled. It wasn't intended. Good luck with the agency.

LOL, as far as I know there is no bad blood between Cordy and myself. For that matter I doubt if there is much more going on than some friendly banter.

I was merely teasing. My reference was to Halle Berry's portrayal of Catwoman and her favorite drink, cream.

Huh? This is the most surreal detective recruitment thread I've ever come across.

I can only assume (hope), Phaedra Rose, that you were employing both hyperbole and irony with your reaction to the questions.

Quite frankly, I didn't know what to expect in this new environ. Maybe it is surreal, sure seemed so for me. btw, thanks for the bump.
