Experience Versus Transaction

One day, a couple months ago I had to attend a work meeting. Right now I work in retail. I brought paper and a pen to take notes, but I mainly use them to doddle. That day I sat holding my paper and pen, dropping my paper and pen and switching my position a lot. However, I actually paid attention. The speaker shared a story and the story has stuck with me. His story was about when he went to a store and had a problem with an item. He took his dysfunctional item to customer service. They returned to him his money, but he later found out they didn't fix the problem with the item. This left him feeling perplexed, they obviously didn't care. More like a transaction.It's like they only met the problem half way. They gave the man his money back, but they didn't fix the problem for the future customers.  He used this story to help us understand an experience from a transaction. Working in retail you sometimes get more carried away with the sales, numbers, and fixing things...

Another bit of Bittersweet

This week has been a good meh bittersweet week. My week was rolling as I worked my butt off for my 7.25 dollars an hour job (and yes my job hunt is never ending). I also had some great time getting together and hanging out with friends and family this week. Now that was my sweet part and Tuesday was when the bitter rolled on in. I got home around 6 from work and popped on the computer to check my emails and facebook and noticed that in the left upper corner of my facebook page I had a message. I clicked on the message and wish I hadn't because it wasn't a very friendly how's it going message. It was a hurtful message and part of it confused me because I was thinking about whether maybe other people viewed me in the same way that person was viewing me. Yes, I do sometimes analyze things a little much, but sometimes it's because I haven't experienced some of what people might call norms in their lives(those of you that know me inside and out may understand where ...

A Sacrifice

It has been six years since my last blog. However, I have had a lot on my mind and will be slowly returning to the blog world. This may also be a chance for friends and others to get to see me in a different light. Today my blog will have some religious insight. I do not mean to hurt or offend anyone, my intent is to share and I hope to possibly give others something to consider, to ponder, and to think about. What is a sacrifice? Interestingly enough when you google sacrifice the definition is to slaughter an animal or person, or giving up a possession as an offering to God or other supreme being. Now, I am going to relate this to life today during COVID-19. Please, don't tune me out, please don't delete the screen. I ask that you continue to read on and hear me out, because this has been on my mind and pieces have been coming together. Over a week ago we had Easter. There is something about Easter and spring that I love. Colors are coming back outside, the sun is out more,...
