Human Resources? Rules drudges or paperwork drones, right?

Not so at PlattForm!

To even a casual observer, PlattForm Advertising’s HR staff rises above, not unlike a warming spring breeze, freshening the dark and muddied surface of the cold pool of the usual to enable the rest of us to fly on gossamer dragonfly wings……

Sorry. I got carried away.

In other words, HR here is a bouncy and smiling (except for one, who knows who he is) bunch of facilitators. Chief among the smiling ones is HR Director, Dory Winn.

Her motto is,” Share and Cher alike.”

Yep. That’s Cher, as in ‘Sonny &.’ As in the Fresno High School dropout whose birth name was Cheryl Sarkisian LaPiere.

Our own Dory is a confirmed Cher-ophile. She’s ‘Moonstruck.’ Because, she says, “Cher has a very distinctive voice. It’s a different sound—she really stands out in the crowd.”

Sometimes, so does Dory. In defense of Cher, Dory once jumped onto the stage at a drag queen performance of Cher to correct the ‘butchered’ lyrics of one of Cher’s number one hits, Dark Lady.

In case you are wondering, Dory’s fan-turn towards the outré, fashion-plate and pop artist started early. “I remember hearing my parents play Dark Lady from an album they had, and watching reruns of The Sonny and Cher Show.

“Even though my parents were eclectic in their musical tastes, listening to Neil Diamond, Bread, Abba, the Allman Brothers—those bands of the 70s and 80s—they ask, about my attachment to Cher, ‘Where’d you come from?’”

It’s not where Dory came from; it’s where she’s headed, to follow the next act in the four-decade stardom of the singer/actress/style icon. After seeing Cher perform at Kansas City’s Kemper Arena a few years back, Dory is packing her glossiest duds to catch Cher live in Las Vegas.

Will she be dressing like Cher? Oddly enough, although Dory is the recipient of a long, dark, straight-haired wig from fellow PlattFormer and Cher groupie, Brian Hubbard, she’s never worn it in emulation. Nor has she paraded in cognito as Cher for Halloween.

Dory, now that we know you Believe, we are posting a star-watch for October 31. On that day we fully expect to see Cher sitting in your chair!
