I applied for a job at Hallmark?
If you really want the job, make sure you go back in and ask to talk to the hiring manager. Ask her if she's reviewed your application, and if she's interested in having you work for them, because you "would really like to work there and everyone seems so nice - it's not cold and impersonal like in fast food.. which is your other alternative, and you really don't want to go that route, you'd rather work with other friendly people..." (Don't ramble, I'm just throwing out ideas.) Be friendly, and hopeful when you talk to her. If she doesn't turn you away outright, but doesn't give you a definite answer, keep going back about once a week. My mom did that when she wanted to work for a company, and while it took some persistence, she finally got the job. If she does turn you away, you could ask her if she'd recommend someplace for you to apply.
Trying to figure out a silver hallmark?
I purchased this from an antique store in France - just curious as to what its hallmark means. To me it looks like a piece of wheat between the letters O and M. Silver, sterling sliver ect.? Any ideas? https://picasaweb.google.com/104403396027916811137/June72013#5886782253823236002

Do you enjoy Hallmark movies?
No because they all seem to have the same sappy love story. A handsome man just happens to wander into a small town and finds love with a lonely single mother. Or a business woman goes back to her hometown and finds love. Or some famous person ends up in a small town and finds love and a new purpose in life. It’s just the same recycled crap over and over. As a writer I like more fresh type stories and these sappy love stories just irritate me.
