Enjoy What You Do Fully
Looking in the mirror is something we do daily if not several times a day. But liking the person looking back is so few times enjoyed. Didn't realize how unhappy I was where I was. In only a couple of days, my skin is clearing up and the color is looking better. It was really nice to see that this morning. I enjoyed my job, but it just took me awhile to see the stuff on the side and caused me so much stress. When I was in high school, I took the power from everyone I knew in not worrying about what they thought of me. It is what saved me from certain demise. I discovered yesterday that I was expected to worry about what others thought about me and since I refused; well things didn't work out. If I really needed to spend valuable energy on what others thought of me in order to stay employed, I would have been gone long ago. So, a note to all you bosses with employees, if you expect your staff to worry about what you think of them, they will hate you and quit. If they're doing their job to the best of their ability and the customers are happy, don't make them stress about what you think of them. Appreciate them and what they bring to the table. Life is too short to stress over how others see you and feel you should change all of you who you are in order to be employed. You've Got to love what you do or its so not worth it. Someday, I will find that special task that I truly love and do it for the rest of my days. Smile, the sun came up today!

The Curve Ball
Well, after 16 months, almost to the day, I'm out of work again. Sucks doesn't come close! I won't miss getting yelled at by pissed off customers who think they're entitled to treat the person on the phone like we're a piece of shit. I'll miss the friends I made. I worked with a great bunch of people. From a former CSR person, be nice to the person on the phone, even if you're pissed off... They'll help you if you give them a chance and it will go faster if you don't scream at them...
