I’m actually having a particularly hard time writing about Cloud Nine, I think mostly because my excitement makes me repetitive—I start using words like “incredible” and “wonderful” and “very” and “really” over and over again.
Oh, wait. I do that anyway. No sense in waiting any longer, then, obviously!
Cloud Nine Staffing is something I’ve been spending a lot of time on in the last few weeks. Mid-September, Kyeli and Pace informed me that they wanted me on-staff—not just as a web contractor as needed, but a really real employee with whatever fantabulous benefits will come along with that, once we make those really real arrangements. In the meantime, this nifty little staffing agency has been seriously on my mind, because once I start flexing my marketing muscles it’s hard to focus on anything else.
Surrounded by the intense energy of this group—Ragen, Kyeli and Pace, each with an individual set of strengths—it’s hard for me to imagine Cloud Nine anything but fantastically successful. In my calendar, I’ve tagged my Cloud Nine meetings “C9 Excitement” because that’s what all our meetings are like. They pack a lot of punch, as it were. It’s dramatically increased the enjoyability of my week, in fact, and I get more excited all the time about what these people are capable of. So much so that I’ve started asking the question, Could you just imagine if everyone enjoyed their work the way I do? Because… dude. I mean, DUDE.
It’s just food for thought. There are a lot of things in the works, and a lot of things coming together, and you will most likely be hearing all about them as they occur. It’s such an amazing remove from even just a year ago, and if you’ve read the Virtual Magpie blog from the beginning you’ll know that for awhile there, I was feeling kind of trapped. I was feeling the way I would have felt in a dead-end 9-to-5 job… except I didn’t have a boss to blame it on. How crazy does that sound? Crazy! In a job I created for myself! And this, now, is just an unbelievable, really dramatic change. Whew. I mean, Whee!!
