RULES OF THE OFFICE
If it rings, put it on hold;
If it clanks, call the repairman;
If it whistles, ignore it;
If it's a friend, take a break;
If it's the boss, look busy;
If it talks, take notes;
If it's handwritten, type it;
If it's typed, copy it;
If it's copied, file it;
If it's FRIDAY, forget it!
GOOD MORNING !
Yes, it is finally FRIDAY once more. The stack on my desk is dwindling and by the end of the day the desk will be clean and I’ll have 2 glorious days off !
After that it won’t be long til Labor Day weekend comes at the end of the month. I’ll get 4 days off in a row then, as I took a vacation day too! I know it sounds as if I live for the weekends and most of the time I probably do.
My job is my means to enjoy the necessities of life and the weekends are full of home and family which are usually a little more fun than work.
THOUGHT FOR TODAY
To awaken each morning with
a smile brightening my face;
to greet the day with reverence
for the opportunities it contains;
to approach my work with a clean mind;
to hold ever before me,
even in the doing of little things,
the ultimate purpose toward which I am working;
to meet men and women with laughter on my lips
and love in my heart; to be gentle, kind,
and courteous through all the hours;
to approach the night with weariness
that ever woos sleep and the joy
that comes from work well done –
this is how I desire to waste wisely my days.

May your day be blessed with a few SMILES and lots of SUNSHINE to warm your heart !

yeah labor day is near. very close. I feel really fall after that
Gee, can I ever relate to your message today. I absolutely live for my days off. I work Saturday to Tuesday and then have Wed - Friday off. Having three days off is absolutely glorious and so much better than two --- which is not enough time off to get a decent rest. Yes, my job means a paycheque to me as well, but my time off is my time off to enjoy as I will. I am glad that it is Friday for you. How ironic that you are excited to have the weekend off and tomorrow is my "Monday'. Friday can have different meanings to different people it seems. Now how long before I can retire ?
Love your Maxine graphic today.
Have a good weekend.

I am really blessed as i work in a christian bookshop and am often inspired by what people have to say. I do sometimes see the worst in christians as well though.

You know I still love Fridays even though I'm retired. I still remember how much I loved them in High School. Have a great one, Joni

I am lovin' that Maxine! I may have to "borrow" it! LOL! TGIF for sure. I hate to think I'm wishing my life away but I'm thinking that as long as I'm working, I'll be looking ahead to Fridays! Today was a double whammy -- Friday AND payday!! Wheee! Have a great weekend! Linda
Wishing you a blessed 2 days off. Great words of wisdom. Blessings, Janie
