Breakfunch

Surprising people who answer the phone with an unfamiliar number on the caller id is great. Especially when it takes them about thirty seconds to realize who is on the other end. Ha. Thanks for the laugh for the rest of the afternoon.

I was told today from my interview this afternoon that it was the most pleasant interview she had been on. After having one of my employees do nothing short of promise me a two week notice on her next shift yesterday, that makes me feel pretty good about that. People only get defensive because they know they are guilty, and that's fine, it's a lesson they will have to learn. If I am here to help teach them the importance of being better workers, then maybe I am a teacher after all. Who needs four walls and a chalkboard?

Preparing to go on vacation is exciting enough, but leaving work each day after completing major items on the never-ending to-do list feels pretty kick ass too. My work load never waivers, but sometimes my projects are so ongoing that I go weeks without feeling like I accomplish anything when I walk out the door at 4:00. Getting things done while still working on that big picture stuff is pretty rewarding. My job is too cool most of the time.

New jobs are exciting too, despite whatever level they are start in. The promise of advance and growth make up for it. And anything is better than working for a devilish, corrupted, ill-practiced business that is a sad excuse of a company. Don't ask me what I really think.

And yeah, I beat you to the blog title.
I got sick of looking it on your list.
Better answer it with part two so you can check it off.

p.s. To those of you who worry about things and to get this off my chest:
Defending of the boy will now only occur on my blogger or myspace (which I recently privatized...hahaha) and no longer on his comment boards. I'm sick of watching my tone of voice and being misinterpreted. My blog, my words, my worries. Don't like it? Don't read it.
