no, ok. i haven't.

for five months i answered the phone with this simple reply, "tiger woods foundation, this is sarah." i sat at my desk diligently working and occasionally looking up to glance at this picture, my boss.



he was pointing at me. his gesture stern, yet loving. telling to me work harder. be the best i could be. i yearned for the day i would shake those strong hands. my supervisor would say, "at the tournament, sarah. you will meet him there."



he was wrong. all of the headlines rubbed it in - tiger out for the rest of the season. tiger will not attend his tournament. tiger woods has season ending knee-surgery. to say i was disappointed would be a gross understatement. i contemplated quiting and taking the picture with me, but i couldn't let him down.



the tourney started today and it is going to be a good one. yes, for the rest of my life i will have to say i worked for the tiger woods foundation, and no, i never met him. but how many people can say that?

I don't know? How many people do you work with? I'd guess about 72. A nice, even number.
