  • Looking at Changes

    I've noticed erratic behavior in one of the management team. It isn't pretty. This has been increasing in frequency over the last spring and summer and now has become so obvious that even the clueless among us has notice…

  • Viewing Pointed Words

    I was pondering the implications of the phrase "shoot off your mouth." Lately there has been an excess of oral gun fire at work. The favorite modus operandi is to find high ground, morally speaking, and snipe at people a…

  • Looking Up

    I'm leaving on a jet plane. It is true. I'm in the process of packing for a 4 day adventure in San Antonio, TX. The conference I'm attending is being held Wednesday through Friday. My flight out leaves early on Tuesday a…

    The week is half over. I miss so much when I'm away from work... Last week there were 2 injuries reported to supervisors but they neglected to log them. One was serious enough to require a doctor visit. There was one scr…

  • Viewing the Return

    Home is a wonderful place. I will have to get caught up on laundry, cleaning, and other chores gradually through out the week. This will include getting a start on Thanksgiving preparations. Work on the other hand will b…

  • Viewing God's Pots

    I've been ambushed. Innocently walking into work, I failed to notice the signs. I knew there were several people scheduled out. On Friday the work schedule had been posted and I had been asked to pick up some extra dutie…
