Teachers of Life

We are all underpaid.

Some have the title but no recompense.

Sometimes the only thing that can be done

is watch as they make a mess.

Hopefully they will learn one of life`s great lessons.

Otherwise you might end up steering them a little longer.

No matter what though

They will learn somehow

and you will to.

So thank your teachers.

all of them!

Life would not be the same without them.

Performance versus Presence

Our society requires us to show up sick

to work because we are only allowed so many rest days.

Our job performance is directly affected by the mental

and physical capacity we have when sick.

Yet we are still expected to perform flawlessly

because our presence is required.

Do you want another plague ridden body

or for the work to get done with less mistakes?

What is even worse is when the sickness is mental.

No boss will believe you need the day off

in order to recuperate from the mental exhaustion

your depression or anxiety has created.

Our society sucks!

Gamut of Emotions

The main one is guilt.
How could I let it happen?

When did this happen?

Is it true?

Who do I believe?

What questions should I ask?

Who can help me?

Fear is the next major emotion

then shock, anger and even surprise.

Regret plays in last because you thought all precautions had been taken

only to find out…

you were wrong!

 

When Work Calls

And you can’t answer

because….

You are in the shower.

You are sick.

You have other errands to do.

You are avoiding them.

You are distracted… by something or someone.

You want to have a happy day.

You are already at work.

You love your life.

You are not in the mood.

You just don’t want to.

It is not every day you answer the call.

And today is not that day.
