Thirteen years ago, financial consultant Robert Baird made a promise to a helpful telephone support worker that if his new business became a success, he would return the favour.
Now the proud owner of a business that operates globally, that day has come for Baird, and he is asking for help to find the woman from Saanich who he says helped kick-start his career.
Across several phone-calls in Nov. 2011, Baird spoke to the support specialist at TELUS for help setting up an email account for his fledgling business. During the conversations, Baird says that the mystery woman acted as a sounding board for him, helping workshop business ideas.

Because of rules to protect the identities of TELUS employees, Baird香蕉视频直播檚 mystery "business fairy godmother" was unable to share her personal details with him. So Baird has very little information to help with his search.
What Baird is sure of is that the woman was from Saanich, was married to a man called either Robert or Scott and that at some point her husband had expressed an interest in moving to Point Grey.
