My place to think with my fingers and who knows just what might pop up. |
| I'm just getting this all set up and I'm praying that I'm doing this right. I'm not sure just what all I'll talk about in here, so who knows. |
| I would like to understand why it is that men believe in going to their job, working as little as possible and then complain how they're not being treated fairly and don't get paid what they're worth. My husband and I work at a small, family owed and run company which makes custom counter tops, and the majority of employees are men. In no way am I saying that all the men are like this, but it seems to average out that one in five hold onto this "I'm too good for this" attitude. Of course, I'm speaking only of my department where I see this attitude and behavior first hand. What really gets to me is that these men seem to get ignored, while someone else can be goofing off and they get yelled at or fired. These are the ones that just happen to have a couple of free minutes on their hands and stop to talk to someone for a minute. Recently, my supervisor (who happens to be part of the owing family) cussed out a guy for not doing his job because he saw him cleaning out the sawdust from his shoes. Thankfully, this was a man who didn't really need the job because he's also in the military, so he walked out. It makes me angry to know that this supervisor can cuss someone out and never have anything said to him about it. It's just a few thoughts about the injustice of the workplace. |
| It's another day of who knows what. I'm tried and I wish my mind could get some more written on what I've been trying to work on. I've got an idea that I've been writing on while I've been at work, but I get frustrated when I need to write something down and I can't take the minute or two it takes. Hopefully I'll get it done by the deadline for the contest. I also am clueless when it comes to the WritingML and how to use it yet. |
| It's Saturday, and I have to serve as our Pastor tomorrow at church. Don't get me wrong, I love it, and it's a call on my life, but there are days when I'm just stuck not sure just what the Lord wants me to say. I have a theme and there is plenty for me to say, but I don't know how to put it all together sometimes. Well, today is one of those days. We have a VERY small home-based cell group and our Pastor has been hired to work with the youth in our LARGE congregation in Atlanta. So, I'm left to hold things together in our little town. And here I am, instead of really working on my sermon, I'm writing in my blog! But, I have some of my praise and worship music playing so I can pick out the music for the morning too - see I'm working. Maybe it's just that I feel a little split down the middle. I'm trying to cut up my time to do so many things. I want to become a "published" author, but I also have to hold down a full-time job, I give fiddle lesson (only 2) each week, I teach our Bible Study on Wednesday nights, and then two to three times a month, I have the privilege to lead our church service. For the past six years it has been not only a desire, dream, goal, but a strong call on my life to be ordained into the ministry. I guess, what I'm trying to do is figure out just how all I do and work together and fit without the feeling that I'm struggling to put it all together. Time Management is a large clue, and is something that I have to work on. |
