acts of kindness

[Minnie]

I know plenty of employers who would love for people to "show up" and do that which is expected. These employers would be tickled pink to think that the employees actually do their job. Having exceptional employees is like holding a mini-lotto ticket.

My husband would certainly support that theory. He works for a major manufacturing company. The hourly workers are union and have better benefits, retirement and insurance than any salary employee. They easily make in excess of 6 figures annually. And yet my husband who is their supervisor must constantly battle with them to simply get them to do their job, nothing more. They get two 30 minute breaks and an hour lunch and yet when the bell rings to get back to work, they will never leave the lounge until he comes in there and "makes" them go back to work. I don't think he has seen an exceptional employee in years.

"Have you had a kindness shown? Pass it on
'Twas not given for thee alone, Pass it on
Let it travel down the years,
Let it wipe another's tears.
Pass it on."

You must work for the state of Tennessee in the education department. I am filling out my eval forms, and those are the very terms they are using Can you tell I am NOT having a good day??!!!???!!!! I wish they would just leave me the hail alone and let me do my job!

As for the kindness quote, one of my favs is "Be kinder than necessary, as everyone is fighting some battle."

Let me clarify: I see expectations and limitations as two disappointed peas in a very small pod.

Hope your day gets better.

I am an artist.

Thanks John and I really like your dog avatar, so cute.

Some blessings----like rainbows after rain or a friend's listening ear----are extraordinary gifts waiting to be discovered in an ordinary day.
