The topic of my last and final blog for this class is titled "Working Girl." As in the movie with Melanie Griffin and Harrison Ford, not the working girl from the street corners.
This movie has to be one of my all time favorites. I caught the last 45 minutes of this movie on T.V. this morning and knew I wanted to blog about it.
Here is this girl, Tess and she has all these ideas but no one takes her good ideas seriously. So she has to do a little bending of the rules to make her-self heard. I think that you have to admire a girl like that. Because she's beautiful everyone only she's the face and not the brains. So she hooks up with this guy, Jack, who is also her boss' sort of boyfriend but her boss is out of town with a broken leg. So now she's really into things deep. But in the end she gets the job, and the guy.
I know from first hand experience that just because you might not have that college degree behind your name, how hard you have to work to prove to others that you are more than capable of doing the job. Now I am in no way saying that you shouldn't go to college because I am obviously in college. But sometimes I think you need to give people a chance whether or not they went to college. Sometimes it's hands on experience that makes the person a better worker than taking classes and just reading about it.
If you have never seen this movie, than I really encourage you to do so!
Anyway...best wishes to you all, I hope you find yourself happy and successful!
Working girl is your favorite movie? Really? I figured it would be atilla the hun, or something about typhoid mary. I can't take a movie titled working girl that isn't about prostitutes seriously. We'll have to discuss your poor choices in movies some other time.
