MISSING ELDERLY

Sometimes I think I'm the funniest person on the planet. I've mentioned drama with my dad previously and he and I don't really talk that much.

But every time I see one of the roadside billboards lit up with MISSING ELDERLY message (known in some areas as a "Golden Alert" or in Florida as a "Silver Alert" - stupid sounding but whatever) I have to call him. Don't care what time it is on what day, he gets a call.

I have to make sure he knows where he thinks he is.



It's the little things in life.

Celebrate!!

It's international TALK LIKE A PIRATE DAY!!!

I'm a damn genius

Remember the red flags I talked about and mentioned that people tend to ignore?

I'm one of those people.

We all are - but I have proof that I'm an idiot because I wrote about it and still didn't pay attention.

Hiring Women

I've always preferred to work with guys. Usually you can have a heated arguement regarding business with a male and then 10 minutes later it's over and you move on to football. With women everything is personal. Just about everyone I've ever hired is male.

I inherited a team of women (and hired one guy into the mix). Last year two of my seven employees had babies so I was basically working short handed for half of the year. They had paid time off and I struggled - at least that was my opinion at the time.

Now that I am considering kiddos of my own I refuse to let anyone (ok maybe one person) that I work with know and certainly not the folks I work for. Sadly, I think it would be career limiting (at least in the short term).

Change of perspective for me - it's interesting.

Don't judge me...

But I am sitting here listening to Christmas music.

It makes me happy.

Yeah Christmas! The temperatures have dipped below 100 - the first sign that fall is on the way. Fall, Football, Hockey, Christmas - happy!
