Good morning!
I'm clemama24/ladytiffany24 and I'm not that exciting. I've been married to H for a little over 3 years (my second marriage). We have one DD (20 months). We have 2 cats. We live in Ohio. I've also lived in Florida. I'm an HR Manager. I love TV, movies, music and basically all things pop culture. Give me all the celeb gossip.
How did you get into HR? What is the strangest thing you've ever dealt with in HR?
I ended up in HR essentially because I was laid off twice during the awful economy in 2008. I ended up finding an HR Assistant job (that paid shit) after being laid off the second time. It was an awful experience mostly due to the people I worked for and the fact that I was constantly being sent across the street to McDonald's to fetch coffee. But it taught me enough and gave me enough experience to know that HR was a field I wanted to pursue. I kept looking for other HR jobs while at that crap job and ended up finding a job as an employment specialist with the company I work for now. I worked my way up to the Manager level.
I haven't been in the HR Manager job super long but have certainly dealt with some interesting things. Some of those things include: having to talk to someone because of the way they smell, having to talk to someone because they kept bringing a bird to work in a bag, having to talk to someone about watching porn on their cell phone while at their desk, the list goes on and on.
Probably The Bachelor/ette. Even more than that probably Bachelor in Paradise. I watch a lot of guilty pleasure TV though. When Big Brother is on during the summers, I basically have no life.
I LOOOOVE "7 Years" by Lukas Graham. I've found some of his other stuff and love it just as much.
My degree is in Film/TV/Radio production. I had big dreams of becoming a famous, Oscar winning producer/director someday (ha). Right out of college I had a job Supervising a studio in Florida. I booked the clients, billed them, took care of them while they were filming, kind of all the back end stuff. We mostly shot infomercials. The company I worked for sold the building they were in and it eliminated that position. From there, I ended up working as a Marketing/Advertising Assistant at a family run firm. They made a bunch of cuts and that's when I ended up in the crappy HR Assistant job.
Born and raised in Northeast Ohio. Stayed there through college (Kent State) then moved to Tampa, FL. Lived down there for 8 years then back to Ohio after that.

The exact opposite side of Ohio from where I am. LOL. I'm in Southwest Oh

If you could go anywhere in the world for a week right now, where would you go?
In the world?! Wow. I'd want to do a European tour. Go to all the beautiful places over there.
Not that you asked but if I could spend a week somewhere in the US right now, I'd go back to NYC in a heartbeat. Love it there (to visit, couldn't live there).
I.love.sweets. So this is hard for me. I love donuts, a freshly baked chocolate chip cookie with a scoop of ice cream. But most of all, I love cupcakes. Especially red velvet cupcakes.
WHY did this person have a bird in a bag?!?! I must know.
Ha! It was his pet. And something about his wife being out of town and the bird not liking to be home alone. So he brought it to work. In a bag. And thought no one would notice. Cue people starting to wonder why they were hearing muffled chirping noises.

I've managed to meet quite a few C list (or even D list) celebrities (think American Idol contestants, Pentatonix, some tv stars and lots of baseball players). But my favorite of all comes from my boy band groupie days. No judging you guise...I was a HUGE *NSYNC fan back in the day. I saw them live 14 times. We would manage to find out what hotel they were staying at and get a room there ourselves. I managed to meet the guys a couple of times. Obviously, the most famous out of the group was JT. Back then he was pretty douchey, which is a shame, because he seems much more likeable in person now.
First of all, these are very difficult questions for me. I'm a movie freak. I can't name just one...I always have to categorize favorites:
Comedy - Little Miss Sunshine
Drama - Shawshank Redemption
Musical - Moulin Rouge
Cult classic - The Big Lebowski
Stupid Humor - The 40 Year Old Virgin
Recent addition to my list - Crazy, Stupid, Love
Favorite movie from this past year - Room
Favorite actor - I love me some classic Tom Hanks. But more recently, Tom Hardy. Props to Daniel Day-Lewis for being utterly brilliant in every movie he's ever been in.
Favorite actress - Classic: Meryl Streep. I'm also a forever fan of Kate Winslet.
