In An Unsettled Business Environment...

* * * * *
I received an employment referral from a friend.
I talked to the prospective team player on Friday
I received her resume on Saturday
I read it on Sunday
I interviewed her on Monday
I hired her before Noon.


Amen.

To Round Out the Work Week

* * * * *


A smile is so universal that it can communicate even when words cannot.
A smile can open doors, it allows another person to know you like them, and your smile makes you more approachable to anyone.
Science has proven that when you smile as well as when you laugh that it releases endorphins and makes you feel better.
So, even if you are frustrated, upset, sad or blue, you can change those feelings several notches once you smile.
When you smile, it brightens your eyes and face...people will want to be with you rather than trying hard to avoid you.

Quotable Shit Show

* * * * *
Here's the Quote of the Afternoon,
made by a very observant, expressive co-worker:

"WHAT A SHIT SHOW
CAUSED BY A SHIT STORM
OF SHIT E-MAILS"

I laughed 'till I nearly pee'd as it was so true and
I immediately had to envision what that might
look like in photos
(it's how my head works):



WHAT A SHIT SHOW


CAUSED BY A SHIT STORM


OF SHIT E-MAILS:




shit. sand. can't see. blurry vision. burning eyes. headache. foggy air. buzzing heads. vertigo.
nausea. paralyzed.

God - we could sure use a day's relief around here.

We All Needed This Today...


* * * * *

We were all trying so hard.
We were working fast, cautious but furious.
And the 'hits just kept on 'comin'.

The request from clients so far out in left field
we wanted to ask them if they read English?

And when they read it, did they understand it?

Or..how about...
"oh, I don't look at it - I just sent it to you" and then:
"so what are you going to do to fix it now"?

What are WE going to do?????

We're going to take a deep breath,
teach you
hold you hand
show you how
and all we want in the end...


maybe 'thank you'?

Ok...never mind...
I'll just try to find these totes for all of us.
