Life is Like a Wheel

Performance appraisal discussion today! I got my grades! I will not be one of those cross country movers. Oh, I am talking foreign again? I wanted to leave my group last year because my efforts were not seen. This time, it is another music playing. I am at the topmost of those agents! Well, I may not be the best but I am one of the bests? No, I am not really that happy. I am blessed, yes. I thank my superiors for at least recognizing my hard work. All of the people in our team did work hard and deserve to pass. However, not everybody thinks the way I do. If only they do.

My supervisor called my attention yesterday because of my supposed unacceptable behavior last Sunday. I told her what really transpired. I am disappointed with her because she made me feel like I need an Oklahoma City attorney for me to win my case. After a heated discussion, we arrived at a resolution and I think that I actually won. Well, that is what is wrong with supervisors, they do not listen and try to pin you down just to hide the real thing. They forgot or did not do their job.

Why is it that I have the feeling that I will be undergoing an employee screening soon? Yes, I am insecure about my present job. I am not happy anymore? However, I know how hard it is to find another job. The economic crisis really itch in everyone. There are people who actually lost their jobs already. I hope it will not happen to me. However, I feel that the time will come that I need to get out of my comfort zone. It is alright. I learned and is still learning a lot right now. I could use all of it in my next endeavors.

Shift schedule is becoming an issue nowadays. Well, that is why there is a scheduler so that it would be fair for everybody. Anyways, some people do not want to work in the morning shift while other prefers to work in it. I would like to work on night shifts. As a matter of fact, I would like to request for a fix schedule as much as possible. Most of all, nobody would like to work on weekends. That is not a problem to me. I do not know why it is a big issue for others.

Life is a continuous learning process. Each day, something new is invented. To keep up, we should attend seminars, do some research or if you would really like in depth knowledge of something, you could take online college courses. Yes, you could study online at Capella University. I, myself would like to enroll at Capella. If you want, you could listen to its podcasts. Hear it from the horse’s mouth. From there, you would know how Capella is as an online university. There are Capella students, faculty and staff featured in those podcasts.

Studying online is the best thing that happened for the working class. Anyone now who would like to pursue additional education can do it now without the need to resign from their jobs.

I did not get the increase that I was hoping for. I was one step down the ladder. I am just thankful that I have an extra job. I just think that I just have to work hard for whatever difference I should have gotten and I do not mind working hard for it at all. It is sort of a challenge. I hope that all my prayers would be aswered though for more extra jobs. As always, the One Up There answers my every intention. I could not be more thankful than ever. Keep it coming!

Some family members of the house are now coughing non-stop. Maybe because of the weather changes? I really hope so or I would not like to be paranoid that they might be having mesothelioma? I really hope not. We are not really exposed or have been exposed to asbestos except for some painting repairs done inside our bedroom last month. I wonder what would happen to those who are exposed to it all their lives or to those whose nature of job is carpentry, painting or other construction jobs that would make them be exposed to asbestos. Good thing that there is a  mesothelioma law firm they could run to. The choice is still with the victims of who to choose. It is a must to choose an attorney with an expertise in mesothelioma laws. If ever I would be in that situation, I would choose a lawyer who had won many cases already gto ensure that I would be able to get my claim. It is bad enough that you have to suffer for the disease. You really have the right to be supported by the ones who could have protected you in the beginning.

I worked for a construction company before. There were so many people in the payroll and one of them was the so called “boy” who was tasked to open the big gate of the headquarters where all the construction equipment and supplies were stored. I could still remember that there was one time that it took long for the boy to open the big gate. We waited outside for around ten minutes that he would not know we were there if our boss did not give him a call at the office’s landline. He fell asleep because it was holy hour that time. I told my employer that he should invest in apollo gates. It is a worthy investment because it could promise convenient and most of all, security. I told him that he has a choice between  apollo 1500 and apollo 1600. Apollo1500 was suitable for the kind of gate where our headquarters was. I already left the company. I hope he did invest on those swing gates openers.

A good day!

Well, back to work. I could say that the whole day has been productive for me. Happy. No feeling of sadness and insecurities. I am happy to be back at work and I could say that I have been good also. I gave the company what they are paying me and more. It was tiresome though but I do not have any right to complain at all.

Well, I better rest now. My laptop is signalling low batt…just like me.

I woke up extra early today. I only wake up this early when we are going to travel or during those times that my previous boss would ask me to go with him and buy some supplies for his construction company. Yes, I met all those equipments. I also know how to canvass for good cheaper tiles, bathroom furnitures and accessories, industrial handles, bolts and screws and others. Name it, I could tell the price range! Oh, I miss my previous employer. I would try to call him later and see what is going on with him right now. He is around 75 years old already. I pray that he is still at the best of health.
