With that being said.....

No matter what happens to people in the course of daily life- we all have choices. We can complain about it and tell anyone who will listen or we can chalk it up to a life changing lesson that will benefit you in the future. My moment came recently when I was let go from a job that I never wanted in the first place. You may be wondering why take it? Well this is where the lesson comes into play. I was told that I would be getting and I quote " WAAAAAAYYYY more money than a case manager and doing less work", so I thought about it but failed to get this information in writing and reluctantly accepted. Trust me...this will never happen again. I had to find out the hard way that business is business and friendships are for after work. Then again- you can be the one person in the office that gets on many things wrong and anger your client base and keep a job because you work for coins????
I have never been good at getting lied to especially when you know that I know you are lying to me-lol! But if it works for you then by all means work it!!
I know I am far from perfect and never claim to be, but spending a majority of my working life in management I think I earned the right to say this: If you want to have happy productive employees 1). Respect them by giving them what they need for work 2). Let your yes mean yes and leave the game playing to the kids 3)Reward the team and not individuals, because nobody can do it alone ask Mr.Barack how he got in office with no help and finally 4). What goes around** comes back around. That is not meant to be negative- just very honest!
I am enjoying not working for a while and plan to learn some new skills to help me be the best worker I can in the future but amazingly I have two offers right now!! I look forward to leading a team again and I thank everyone that taught me my life learning lessons.
I be that wardy guy!!
