I read this quote recently in an article and it really struck me:
"The good workers get disheartened and demoralized if they see these
non-performing workers making as much as them and they're not doing their job."
I have seen this daily since I started at the Hotel. It really does practically take an Act of God to get someone fired, unless of course, the state takes their license.
However, I am stubborn. I stick around and do my job to the best of my ability to spite them all (and trust me, there are enough of them). It's a challenge, but some days ARE really better than others (today was pretty decent).
I will let it all take its course before I decide to do something else, but the clock is ticking. I have never been so glad to be on the downside of my service contract for graduate school!
"Fear paralyzes; curiosity empowers. Be more interested than afraid."-Patricia Alexander, American educational psychologist

Classical music.
Who were you last in a car with?
Dahey and Bubba

A couple of times to my face.

All. The. Time. I try to slow down.
Did you have fun yesterday?
Yes, I did. I like Saturdays.
Do you like to cuddle?

Yes. One of my patients used to called me relentless. I take it as a compliment.

Good.

Yes. I like to laugh.

Coming back from a swanky place for dinner with Dahey.
