Definitely sounds like you've worked hard. Nice to hear that you're being rewarded for your effort. It's an underappreciated aspect of people, the work ethic. Much respect, you've earned it.

I apperciate my team and i make sure they know it. I couldnt do it alone.

Nice. Good people all around then. Definitely doesn't sound like a bad place to be, all things considered. Sure it has it's ups and downs, but you seem to take pride in it. Speaks highly on it's behalf.

Oddly enough back in 2000 they got me my first big girl job. I worked there for 15 years. Im proof it works

That helps

Im passionate about many things. But definitely finding the right job for the right person and hearing a thank you can make a shit day where 20 people didnt show up to work worth it.

So how about you. What are you passionate about?

Not so much my job. It's a thing I do so that I can afford the place to live and the books I read. I love books. All kinds, novels, short stories, comics, whatever. Constructed worlds. Places to send my mind and ask interesting questions about what it means to be human, or how to be human in a changing world.

I've always wanted to write something, but every time I try it feels like I don't have anything meaningful to say. Figure if I keep reading I'll find the questions that keep my soul burning, as it were.

Not quite as useful as being passionate about people or work, sadly. As introverted as I usually am.

There is no reason to not be passionate over words. Its what makes the world go round. That and money. Followed by food drugs and sex and love. Not always in that order

I bet you have a great collection.

I just wish I had more space. Have to keep shuttling stuff off to used bookstores to make room for the new stuff.

I like your summation of the world. Very to the point, and not at all inaccurate. I know which ones I'd prioritize

Im a good one to keep in your back pocket for over thinking what the world is about and not giving a big big shit about it because we all arent gonna wake up one day and realize we are actually dead. (Sadly i do give small shits...like the size of rabbit turds cause i am still alive in this damn corn maze of life) Im hoping i wake up in my next life and im living on a beach selling coconuts or im ice fishing in my back yard and its in alaska. Oh i also do try to be a better person tomorrow then i was today. However i get free passes when im still awake through till tomorrow. Sorry to anyone who was hoping for a better me on the holiday

 

[ashesatwork]

Oh ashley.

You.left your fucking alarm on for your day off.

 

[CharlieB4]

That sucks. When I load trucks for market it's usually between 5.30 and 6am and I always forget to turn my alarm off on the days when I'm free. Really hurts my arm... when the wife hits me.

Hummmm what do i want for dinner.

Stuffed peppers sound good.

Silly. I'm the one who was supposed to wake up early. Made it too.

 

[ashesatwork]

Haha you may need a nap

 

[Xerxes82]

Definitely! Was worth staying up late though.

It's actually not been too bad. Everyone has been nice and understanding, and my coworkers are all a little stir crazy too. Makes for kind of a fun day. Lots of silly.

Holiday bbq?

I suppose i should be american and do something like that.

Lol. Nah, do something different. Mojitos on the beach. If you're into mojitos anyway. I've never actually had one, they could be awful.

Lol. I may have a beer. Doubtful i have to work in the morning.

Not a drinker, or just making sure you're clear headed when it matters?

I love beer. But i am less of a drinker then i once was. I had a couple beers sat.
Im more of for taste then i am to be drunk these days.
Unless its on purpose.

Not at all a bad way to be. I'm a total lightweight. Never been much of a drinker. One beer and I'm usually pretty good. Two and I'm well on my way to drunk. But I rarely drink at all.

Which is kind of a shameful thing to say when I come from one of America's beer Meccas, lol. Does that make me an iconoclast? I've always wanted to be one of those.

You can be a beer mule for me up there any day. Man i sure do love strawberry rhubarb from new glarus in case you wondered what to get me for my birthday

Ive been doing my fair share of drinking for 20 years.. ive tried over 3000 kinds.

I would rather just have a couple good beers and take a nap. THis almost 37 thing feels like 73 some days.
