the super secret caves

I visited my friend Zoe at her new job at the state of the art and ultra clandestine cheese aging caves at Jasper Hill in Greensboro, Vermont. Japser Hill are well known, high end cheese makers and have built the first aging cave of it's kind in the U.S. This place is enormous, literally like an underground airplane hanger built into the side of a hill. You can hardly find the place, it's on an unmarked road, doesn't come up on the GPS and there is no sign out front once you get there. Inside, you had better know somebody or you don't leave the tiny reception area. Zoe, who they stole away from her affineur job at Murray's Cheese in Manhattan, is their U.S. sales rep and is loving her new life in Vermont.
This is one of the seven caves there, and Zoe said it was the smallest.

Do you think Zoe needs an assistant? I wouldn't mind trading in my corporate job for a cheese sniffing/tasting job.
