When I see people who are happy in their jobs, it makes me feel good. The other day, my postal worker walked into our office smiling and singing. "I love coming to your office," she said. When security guards, bus drivers, waiters, airline pilots and even car rental specialists love...
Prom A Second Time Around…
Yesterday, I took the day off from work to run around with my daughter to get ready for her High School Prom. She had a manicure/pedicure, got her hair done and by the time it was all over, it was time to go to Pre-prom at her friend's house. Pre-prom...
Music Review: Kenny Chesney at the Beach…
I'm not a big country western fan. I like to listen to Madonna, Green Day, The Ramone's, Coldplay and the list goes on and on.... I love to listen to music in my car, at work and when I'm relaxing at home. After a long day at work about a...
