This is my second to last day at my current job and I’m excited to try something new in a week or so. However, it’s difficult leaving behind co-workers who have become friends. I’ve built such great relationships with everyone that I wish I could stay. Sometimes we all make decisions that we don’t like. I have made a lot of those decisions especially when having to compromise on something that I feel so strongly about. Unfortunately, I can’t think of any examples. My Dad always told me that you have to look out for Number 1. Whose Number 2 work for? Anyways, his words are profound. You always have to think about yourself in life because no one will drag you along. I understand that marriage is about two people but what he is talking about is the real world. Not your circle of friends. You always hear the saying “Dog Eat Dog”, right? That is what he is talking about. Of course, everyone knows that. That is a principle of life. Rule 1: Take care of Number 1. Actually, it’s not that simple. How many times have you thought “I’m comfortable” or “I make just enough money”? I do it all the time because I like the atmosphere or the co-workers. The workload is always a factor. Why should we look out for Number 1 if that means more work. You can never get a job that pays more money and not require more work. Unless, you are a stripper or something and I can’t squeeze my cheesy ass into a thong. Maybe I’m off base. Something to think about, I guess. Sorry to put you through this. Peace out.
