As January comes to a close, February 1st approaches, which some refer to as Groundhog Day. It’s when Punxsutawney Phil emerges from his burrow to let the world know if winter is over, or if we’ll have six more weeks of it! What I’m reminded of each year with Groundhog Day is the ever popular 1993 movie with Bill Murray.
The movie is about a weather man who is asked to cover the groundhog day story for the fourth year in a row. However, awaking the following day he finds it to be groundhog day over and over and over again. At first, he uses this to his advantage, then comes to the realization that he is doomed to spend the rest of eternity in the same place, seeing the same people do the same thing EVERY day. After the realization, he changes his attitude, behaviors and daily activities and awakes to February 3. Most people never experience the same day twice. As the saying goes, “you never get a second chance to make a first impression”, unless you’re Bill Murray.
Ways to make a great first impression:
5) Avoid gum chewing.
4) Use eye contact.
3) Use good body language and stand up straight!
2) Be on time.
1) Proper handshake - no limp hands!

Oh, you are soooo right about the limp shake !!!
Can’t stand the one where (mostly women) people just PUT half their hand in yours — what, you want it kissed, or should I filet it ? Grow up, act like you’re glad to meet me.
Thanks, got that off my chest.
