Happy Labor Day to all who make things work and move in our communities. Your dedication and determination make a better world to live in. May your efforts be recognized and respected.
Here’s to all who are working on this holiday. Keep on going good people. Prosperity and peace are possible through the work of our heads and hands.
It’s a Monday and that means back to work.
For many today and in the days ahead its time to go back to school.
May we all have a good day in the workplace and in the classroom. Let us all be safe as we work and study. We all have something to learn and grow from. In the coming year.
Yep it’s a Monday mood. The rain is needed but it’s making everything very dreary. Let’s hope things get better later on.
Have the best day possible good people. Grace and peace.
No matter how hard you work and try sometimes your success is in the hands of others. The power of the words YES and NO is simply amazing. As in most things you can only hope for the best and hope your best is good enough.
Today I celebrate eight years with Blood Assurance. My work is in my veins and in the veins of others who I have brought in to save lives. I have worked hard and I feel good about my contributions to the company. Blood Banking is important and I’m glad to have been a part of it all these years. Thanks to all the people I’ve been on this journey with. Here’s to more years ahead of doing work for the greater good.
A person’s paycheck is a recognition of their work. It should never be used to judge someone’s worth. People who show up to do jobs that don’t make a lot are doing the best they can. Pay shaming isn’t cool and doesn’t do anyone any good. There are many people who need to be paid more than what they make.
Most people are paycheck to paycheck workers. Some folks have to hold down two or three jobs just to make ends meet. Many work long shifts that aren’t 9-5. It’s important to support those who work hard every day, no matter what they do. Pride is more than your paycheck.
The more you stay in a place the more it changes around you. Whether it be a job, a neighborhood, or somewhere else you see people, places, and things change and there’s really nothing you can do about it. Life moves on, people move on, everything moves on.
I have been in my job for almost eight years and I have seen faces come and go. My roles have changed. Yet I still remain because I have built a career in which I am helping people and saving lives.
The more things change, the more they stay the same is a philosophy I am not sure I agree with. Change is all around you. Don’t get too comfortable.
The work goes on. Life goes on. The thing about it all is you have to adapt and change along with all the stuff. I suppose you hold on to the important things and keep the main thing the main thing.
