        Zman doesn't know the difference between ME logged on or HIM logged on. No matter. His intentions were good. Yep, Nordstrom as their chef. I start at the end of the week. Now, where the heck is the Blue Bunny Ice Cream for the celebration. Thanks all for your congrats. Looks like a fun job.

          Is somebody playing the piano for you while you cook? Does Nordie's supply you with free shoes? Inquiring minds want to know.

              congrats! Best of luck with your new position.

              My wife once saw a cute top there. Just a simple cotton top - $250.
              needless to say, we didn't get the shirt.

                  Hello All,
                  lleechef, how sweet your news is. Now, if only
                  I could figure a way to get up there and taste your
                  food. Really, congrats!!!
                  Take Care,

                    Good for you Lisa. The very next time I am passing through Anchorage I shall
                    be sure to stop for the "speciality" of the day. I just hope it is salmon
                    and not bar-b-q !!

                    We have a nice Nordstom here in Tampa but no restaurant. The lovely Mary Ann
                    looked at a little pocketbook (forgot the name) for going out in the evening
                    (for her, not me)-----the saleslady was very nice, but when she quoted $3000
                    I realized I was in a big league store and I belonged in the minors.

                          I remember the cafe in the Union Square (SF) store being a big freakin' deal--that's very impressive. Congratulations!

                              Thank you everyone! Geeze. It doesn't seem like such a big deal to me. I start on Thursday and yes, the discount is 33%. I have more shoes and more clothes than I could possibly wear. But it is going to be a fun job! Again, thanks everyone for your good wishes.

                                Congratulations Lisa!

                                When I lived in Seattle the home of Nordstroms, it seemed that every business involving any type of customer interation modeled themselves after Nordtstroms.

                                BTW- Nordstroms a CHAIN

                                  You go g/f!


                                  Maybe you can let loose Nordstrom's Oosik Cookies and repeat the history of the NEiman Marcus fable!

                                                I never thought that Nordstrom's had such good taste!

                                                Congratulations!

                                                          Sounds like you have landed a really fun job. Most of the department store cafes are long gone so it is really nice that you are going to experience this atmosphere. I can remember wearing a nice hat and gloves, right out of school, when I went to dine in department store cafes.............what fun it was!
