What's the secrecy?

I was dancing with a guy once and asked him what he did for a living, his reply: I lay sardines in their cans. He also told me haltingly 'you have a fabulous body - just like a coke bottle'. No idea whether he was serious on the first gambit. But the second one I believed, ahhh the good old days

Not really.

The ATO have a full time division in Sydney looking solely at property investors and companies with above average property holdings.

Good for them, they need to do something to earn their wage

This applies to any position in which the individual is selling a product or service to the consumer.

Correct. I apply the same knowledge in my field; advertising.

Really...?

Hi All,

On the back of Bay View thread, thought of starting this one. We have a "friend" we've known for around 7 years.

There is a huge amount of secrecy around where she works though hints of where she works are dropped online on facebook every now and again. We feel as if we can't even ask where she works although we do have an idea where...oh and it's a respectable corporate/gov't job I believe. There is also secrecy around her life in general though I've found we are open about where we work and our interests outside work..

I just find it really bizzare. Have you had "friends" like that?

We actually don't bother even asking anymore as I know we won't be getting a straight answer and not our business if she doesn't want to discuss....still annoyed at the secrecy and the idea that they are special hence don't tell..

Met someone like that before? Hardly worth calling them a friend and now it's almost they have fallen off the radar.

Yes my ex wife had a friend who was EXTREMELY secretive about what she did for work, that is until I came on the scene and did some research and found out she was an Escort.

Wasn't real hard to figure out I will add.

Was it worth the money?

They were quite popular in their day.

My mother the car (for those old enough to remember) vs havinago's wife's Escort.
