Time Is Money

2007-09-06T16:08:00.000-04:00

Many people think that how they manage their day is negotiable. I'm not one of them. My mother taught me (and I strongly believe to this day) that TIME=MONEY. I have two jobs. One job bullshits with the schedule and the "second" job needs my time which=my money. As a result of this, I switched my schedule from days to nights on one job, and from nights to days on my "second" job. (This part is confusing.) Me doing this made my 1st job my 2nd job and my 2nd job my 1st. Following? Anyway, what stuck out to me is the fact that at the original 1st job, the bullshit job, the manager acted like she was awestricken or confused. I had to explain to her, very kindly and politely, that though "I enjoy working with you all and I love working here- (LIES)- I can't live here. I have to have a home and lights and gas in it. I can't giggle with you anymore if I'm homeless and what could I come here and enjoy if I don't have electricity or gas when I go home?" Make no mistake, bosses pay bills too! They understand. My point is, don't let anyone fuck you around about your money. You don't have to. Your time is your most valuable asset in this life. Not sex, not conversation, but your time. Cherish it and CHARGE for it.

The New

I've been gone for a while but now I find the need to share. At first, I wanted something that everyone would be interested in but, I would much rather share what interests me and what I'm about as a person. Focusing my attention on "attracting a reader base" wouldn't encompass that; so I hope that I'm not too irregular for most people. From now on, I will share my most passionate thoughts of the day. (Note: some days there may be more than one - smile.) Today, it's ignorance. There was a person who injured himself at my workplace today. He is gay. So what!!??? Right? Most people would think. But not some of the ignoramuses that work with me. As blood poured off of this man, many people were spewing comments such as, "I won't clean it-I have kids". Every word out of these ignorant mouths pissed me off! Because a person is gay doesn't mean that a disease is automatically attached to them. Even so, I took a pair of LATEX gloves and BLEACH and cleaned it. WHAT IS SO HARD!!!??? These same people then swore that even THAT was too risky. My problem is this: 1.) Heterosexuals contract AIDS on a DAILY basis 2.) What makes your sancrimonious ass so sure that your husband/wife isn't shooting you the virus this very night? Do you know where they are constantly? How, an ankle bracelet? 3.) I can't stand a "judger". Who in the hell bestowed you with that power? Let me know so that I can inform them of their poor and hasty judgement. 4.) If you speak, then know as well. Nothing comes through Latex and bleach kills even the deadliest of viruses. If you don't know, then don't speak. I think that my look said more than my words ever could have. They then looked at me, shut up, and let me clean. A man was bleeding profusely and had been injured severely enough to go to the emergency room. Someone whom they smiled and laughed with all day, every day. The behavior shown was sick. It was a disgusting display of sheer ignorance.

Karma

Yesterday while at work I had to intervene between one group of clients bullying or ridiculing another client. It made me remember the grade school antics of school children. Its amazing how grown ups find enjoyment in belittling the "little guy" or the outcast. I reminded my clients that in life we all get a turn at being the target of jokes ,ridicule or plain meaness so be careful what they do to others.They probably blew me off but Karma keeps accurate scores......

Grown up stuff

There are days when the obligations and duties attached to being a responsible person become burdensome. BILLS BILLS and More BILLS .But remember that nothing stays the same forever not even financial chaos. Keep moving forward and dont forget that money is only important when you have none. ////

a matter of hours

Dont know if anyone else has wanted to jump off a ten story building after getting off the scale.....but nothing i know can be quite as frustrating (except being in love) . I wonder how someone can gain or lose weight in a matter of hours. According to my dumb scale I do every day. One thing for sure whenever I decide to jump off that ten story building ..Ill be taking that dumb scale with me.(SMILE)

Undevoted

Is there nothing worse than being involved in a relationship where the devotion and dedication isn't a priority? No. I think that from one time to another we all feel that way. Let's do this. Let's not be tied up in those relationships. There may be admirable qualities about our partners that we long to remain acquainted with and accustomed to. However, pull apart! There are many others who seek relationships with people who are "JUST LIKE US" and guess what!!?? THEY ARE ABLE TO OFFER FULL DEVOTION!!! Why be strapped to those who either cannot or will not? No good reason? I thought not. So, thought of the morning: DON'T PLAY YOURSELF! Wake up and DEMAND BETTER, seek it, find it, and do what you will with it.

the workplace

The workplace should strenghten skills and enhance ones talent. The workplace should be the catalyst for growth and development of ideas and creativity. The workplace should nurture and foster inspiration does your workplace do these things? I long to be part of a workplace that does......
