Um...it's a quarter to 6am and my mind is racing!

I've got all day to mull this over...and I'll be back when the mulling is over!


*EDIT* I was just about to log out and go off to work and I thought of something to add...

The more you do for your boss...the more he expects from you the next time. What I mean by that? You can't rollerskate in a buffalo herd!

That's my early lesson. Wait'll you read my late one!

Things we get for nothing are often granted lesser importance or "value"

than stuff we've slaved to get.

The trouble with this is that we demean the act of giving by doing this.

An easy example is that Lil and family drove halfway across the State

to spend some time with a pair of Aussie travellers.

She (they) put themselves out just for me, a simple act of friendship.

Free doesn't mean it cost nothing, just didn't cost you money.

Interesting coffee analogy because I've been thinking of something along those lines lately.

I feel it's time to leave my current job because I see customers and workers are not valued as much as they once were.

At my last job, I worked salary and worked a hell of a lot more than 40 hours a week - try 70 on average.

I went in to work early one Saturday morning to enjoy the peace of a quiet office. I went to the kitchen to make a pot of coffee and thought, "It's nice that I can enjoy free coffee."

Shortly after, management decided it cost too much money and took away the free coffee. Nobody was abusing it, management just decided to be cheap.

I quit pretty quickly.

LMFAO-

I’m so sorry I wasn’t able to express the goal with my question to some of you. This wasn’t about coffee, employees or any specific issue. The example sited was an actual event, but only stated to demonstrate how often something given completely with goodwill can become, not with malice, but meaningless to the point of unintended abuse.




(new lesson for me)
Never ask an unquantifiable question to a group.

PF---Long ago,I learned,that if someone does a good job,
compliment them or tell them that their work is good.They didn't
know,that I overheard them,but many years ago,at a town pier, I
over heard my old boss(business owner)talking to his competitor.
He asked him(My new boss)"What's he doing here?"New Boss---
"He's my new head mechanic."Old boss-"He's the best Foreman &
mechanic,that ever worked for me!"
I thought-"Why didn't he ever tell me that?I might still be there!"
He had given me large raises & always got the equipment,that I
asked for,but never told me that I did a good job.My lifestyle,
might not,have met his approval,but I made him ALOT of money!
I realised then that money isn't everything.Giving compliments to
employees,means alot! Irish
P.S.This was a boat manufacturing business.The boats started at
$200,000 before additions.(Basic Boat)This was OVER 15yrs ago.

I have learned that if you are unsure it is wise to ask!

OK...I'm back!

Thought about this all day, yesterday...and wouldn't ya know, it was the first thing that popped into my head as soon as I woke today. So, here it is. This is the only thing that kept coming to mind whenever I thought of this thread...

I've said it before and I'm sorry to be repetitive, but...Mom always told me that if you love someone (doesn't necessarily mean a lover), be sure to tell them and tell them often. There may come a time when you can no longer tell them...and regretting not telling them will haunt you the rest of your life! Case in point...I didn't get to see my father just before he passed. I just got back to Pa. from Fl. and was looking for a home. I could have said to hell with everything...dropped it all...and made the trek to N.J. to visit him while he was in the hospital...but I didn't because I thought his stay would be brief and I could visit later, when he went home. I spoke with my sister (who was watching over him), but never directly to him. He died suddenly and totally unexpectedly from something other than what he went in the hospital for. I hadn't spoken to him for nearly 6 months and now I never had the chance again. Oh sure, I had told him before that I loved him and had forgiven him for past differences...but, I could have told him one more time...and I didn't!

So...if you mean to say something to someone...SAY IT NOW...DON'T HESITATE! Who knows? A bus could run you or them over and you'll not have the chance if you or them are flat as a pancake!

And BTW...I love you guys!!!!!!!!
