Every counselor needs a counselor


Sometimes it seems like adults never really graduate from high school, we simply get paid to work there. Walk back down memory lane and reflect on the dayz of everybody all up in your Kool-aid and concerned about your business like who you were dating, who you kissed and what grades you got. Fast forward to now and realize that everybody is all concerned about your business, who you may be interested in, and what time did you arrive at work. Humm, sounds like the typical situation for many a people.
I know what my counselor would say. If you don't like it leave. That is not a bad ideal for some, but others actually like their jobs, its just that they don't like being treated like a kid, remember we are adults now....
I must admit that one of favorite working sayings occurs when you get the generic memo sent to everyone but it is only intended for one specific person. I would always think, "Why don't you just tell the sucka you want to know and leave the rest of the good slaves...I mean workers, alone". I guess I understand that it is just a time saving tool that keeps you from repeating it to the next man.
My counselor told me today, that work is like a marriage. With that being said, I understand why people get divorced-lol! I get it, people get in their moods and don't want you in their office, some think you are playing hookie and others just try to make it to the end of the day doing the bare minimum. But would it not behoove everyone to treat your staff with the same courtesy that you would your clientele?
I sometimes expect perfection from imperfect people, but hey why not shoot for the moon, because even if I miss, at least I will be amongst the stars.
I think from my perspective, its important to always keep in mind the golden rule in all aspects of life, but especially at work. After all, every counselor needs a counselor....so I say thank you to you and your welcome from me.
I am your counselor....WaRd...
