Going through your unanswered messages on your email is something no one wants to go through, at least this is how I feel, and why I had over a thousand messages. I am going to take ten minutes every other day to clear my email account. 

Cleaning out my email is going to be adding to my list of things I need to do. It doesn’t matter if your list is in your head, written on posted notes, or in a book you check off as you go.

Having a list of things you do on a daily basis and having a list of things you want to do can help you stay on track on getting everything done. 

I wonder if I am the only one who likes to have a list of things I want to do and things I would like to do?

I had to yell at myself, (in my head of course) “SHUT UP!” and just keep my word. I said I wasn’t going to offer a ride on my bus service to anyone who doesn’t appreciate it. I answered a simple question and did not give the reply that reply that would normally follow.

I was feeling bad, like I was wrong in not offering my help, but then I remember the complaints. The manipulation of getting a ride that wasn’t offered. I just smiled and kept my mouth shut.

I didn’t give a reason, because I wasn’t asked. I don’t want to open a can of worms unless I have too. If asked I will be respectful and hope we could still be friends. If there is an apology, maybe I would try again, but that is a Big “IF?”

In the end if someone is doing something for you, you should be grateful, and hold back your complaints.

When your hours have been cut and you can barely finish your job. The question you ask yourself is: 

1. Do I take a break and rest for a few minutes?
2. Do I push through the pain and finish what I started?

I gave a short laugh and clocked out. I know I am given two breaks, and I am taking one. Why should I push myself for a company that doesn’t care about me?

I am grateful for this job, but I am still saying, “Thank You Jesus for this job, but thank you for a better one.”

I had to cut back on my words, when a non-believer told me I should stop looking for a job online, and go work at a call center. This one I know is known for a high turnover, and I just told her I am good. I will find the right job for me.

Philippians 1:3 NIV [3] I thank my God every time I remember you.  https://bible.com/bible/111/php.1.3.NIV

People will tell you what you should do, not caring about who you are or what you want to do. There’s a saying, “think before you act,” and I will always do what’s best for me. I don’t play follow the leader anymore.

Some people think they are helping, but it’s up to you to do what’s best for you. People will not pay your bills. People will not help you if you are ever in need. Okay, let me reword that, not everyone is out to hurt you, and you need to know who is real and who isn’t. 

Time to eat before I get back to my job hunt.
