FOCM Member Announces a Change in Employment

submitted by FOCM member Chris Diehl

Hello fellow FOCM members,

I hope that this note finds you doing well. I am pleased to announce that I have recently aligned myself with Babb McGrew, a full service Life Sciences executive search firm, servicing four practice areas:
Pharma/Biotech, Healthcare, Data Analytics and Marketing. Richard Babb, the firm’s President, and a personal friend, has been in the executive search/recruiting field for over 15 years. He has built quite a successful business, and I feel very fortunate that he has asked me to become a member of his team. Feel free to visit our website at www.babbmcgrew.com.

As we all know, by virtue of our membership in FOCM, relationships are at the core of many of our business dealings, and in my case, many of these relationships have become personal friends. You are receiving this notification because you and I have either worked together at one time, or our paths have crossed over the past few years, or just know each other from FOCM! Either way, I consider you a friend, and I sincerely
hope that we can work together again in the very near future. Feel free to contact me at any time, let me know what’s new with you, and let’s discuss how we may be able to help each other again in our work. Have a great week.

Best regards,
Chris

2 jokes for Monday

seen in Readers Digest (www.readersdigest.com) September issue

A wife asked her husband to go to the grocery. He said he would and asked what was needed.
She replied, “get a gallon of milk and if they have avocados, get 6.”
The husband came home and put 6 gallons of milk on the counter.
His wife said, “I don’t understand, why did you get 6 gallons of milk?”
He replied, “they had avocados” and walked back to the den.

Two women went into a photo studio to have their portrait taken. The photographer’s very young and very naive assistant asked, “Are you two sisters?”
“No,” said one of the women. “We’re partners.
“Oooohhh…” said the assistant. “So how long have you ladies been cops?”

Romance 50 Years of Marriage

seen on a friend’s facebook page

After nearly 50 years of marriage, a couple was lying in bed one evening, when the wife felt her husband, begin to massage her in ways he hadn’t in quite some time. It almost tickled as his fingers started at her neck, and then began moving down past the small of her back. He then caressed her shoulders and neck, slowly worked his hand down, stopping just over her stomach. He then proceeded to place his hand on her left inner arm, working down her side, passing gently over her buttock and down her leg to her calf. Then, he proceeded up her thigh, stopping just at the uppermost portion of her leg. He continued in the same manner on her right side, then suddenly stopped, rolled over and became silent.
As she had become quite aroused by this caressing, she asked in a loving voice, ‘Honey that was wonderful. Why did you stop?’ To which he responded: ‘I found the remote.’
