Okay so first of all, Ivanka has NO personality. LOL But I love how smart she is and that really comes out when she’s talking about the company and the type of candidate they should hire. You can definitely tell that she’s looking out for the bottom dollar. She turned me off when visiting the winning team though. She had already determined that they were at a disadvantage by not using the detailing center. Their strategy was volume….quantity over quality.

And how about that TWIST! The winning project manager getting to sit in the other chair. WOW. That’s going to get ugly before long and you know it. I wonder who The Donald has scheduled to take that seat when they get down to the last 3 and they’re on their own….or for the final two. I’m telling y’all, he needs to bring Randall in to review a couple of tasks.

What I love is how fast Martin tried to throw Frank under the bus….and to his face. Gathering up the team and pointing out Frank’s flaws was extremely smart. You can tell that it paid off for him with the team because most of them said that they would have fired Frank. I would have fired Frank myself. Can you believe he spent an hour at Kinko’s making flyers? The entire project started in disarray and mess.

I loved seeing Carey step up with the ideas. The other team simply worked harder. Anyone who hustles to make signs on cardboard and wash cars in suit skirts and t-shirts deserves to win.

I’m not in love with this tent idea yet though. I feel like there was more excitement when they all lived together. There was more tension watching the teams plot and strategize while sitting in the same room with the losing team who was waiting to see who would walk back through that door.

Right now I have two standouts and they are James and Carey. Both of these guys stepped up in the task and showed that they plan on working hard. Even though there team lost, I think if it hadn’t been for these two that the margin would have been even greater.

Is there a Randall in the group? Maybe, I’ll have to watch a couple more episodes. Am I impressed by the sister from Jamaica? Not yet. I think I saw fear in her eyes at one point. Not a good sign.

It’s not too late to sign up for our Apprentice Intern group on Yahoo. If you want to participate just drop me a noteĀ  for the group# and password.

  • Have men finally accepted that women DO watch and enjoy football?
  • Am I the only person that checks ESPN.com every day hoping and praying to see a story about Dallas interviewing a new defensive coordinator?
  • Yes Sonny, I am cheering for the Saints.
  • Next season I may join one of those fantasy football leagues. I picked all my girl’s choices this season and she came in 2nd.
  • I told a friend of mine last week that I think I’d like to be proposed to at a Dallas Cowboys game. No big screen announcement needed. But wait til after a touchdown or else I won’t be in a good mood.
  • Who thought the Bears really had a chance?
  • Did anyone else think that Reggie Bush had the potential to crash and burn when he got to the pros? I guess he showed me.
  • I’ve never seen any other team play in person besides the Cowboys (and whoever they were playing.)
  • Superbowl party at my house! Unless the Eagles make it. Then never mind.
