Casual Articles - A Job is Not a Job
You have your restaurant open for several weeks now, customers are coming in…finally you have employees serving real food. But before you continue with your business further, be sure that you have everything else under control. It’s still important to be informed about what’s hot and what’s not and what’s important in handling a restaurant for business.It’s not only how your restaurant’s look and feel that matter, but how you make your customers happy and satisfied of their entire stay at your restaurant. When they have a good time over-all, they
But, whatever it takes, you won't be able to offer your best you at work and get rewarded with interesting work, personal growth and financial rewards, if you aren't in a good workplace environment and a good position match for who you are, what you want, and what you have to offer.
In a traditional organization, the role of purchasing is to simply purchase and the means was to negotiate and to have a confrontational attitude with the vendors. This led to the concept of ‘buying power’ of organizations into the management literature. For instance, large organizations squeezed every cent from their suppliers by using their buying clout.Purchasing solutions are based on vendor, geographic and technology specific. Whatever be the solutions, the goals are reduced cost, higher quality and reliability. Purchasing is a complex proce
It only happened on Mondays. Sometimes I escaped the unpleasant ritual. But, more often than not, right before boarding I threw up in the ladies room of the train station. It wasn't the commute I hated. It was the job.
The reasons don't matter why a job I once enjoyed turned into a job I didn't. It happens. Bosses change, companies change, priorities change, budgets change, responsibilities change. Some changes bring personal growth and opportunity. Some don't.
What does matter was the lesson learned that stayed with me the rest of my career: a job is not just a job. That job I hated helped my checking account. But my confidence, creativity, health, energy for life and view of the world was not as fortunate. When the alarm clock sounded, my previous excitement to face a new day became cocoon-like behavior, both in and out of the covers, wanting protection from another day's battle. It was safer for those I loved to refrain from sharing important issues or concerns with me, never knowing how I would react.
How you spend a significant part of your day rubs off on the rest of your day, and on those you share your life with. Over time, it rubs off on your life. I'm not talking about temporary potholes and work hiccups that come with change or periods of work intensity, or the interim choices to increase finances, or the normal setbacks and challenges that should be dealt with at work. I'm talking about the long term match between who you are and the job you have. When you're in a job that's good for you, you can feel it. And you can feel it when you're not. I agree with Barbara DeAngeles, "No job is a good job if it isn't good for you."
You see, you can't be winning at working if you don't like what you're doing, where you're doing it, or who you're doing it for. If what you do feels like work the majority of the time, you might want to think about why, and what you can do to change it. That doesn't necessarily mean you should change jobs or companies. Transferring to another team, volunteering for a new project, or asking your boss for new responsibilities may be all it takes.
But, whatever it takes, you won't be able to offer your best you at work and get rewarded with interesting work, personal growth and financial rewards, if you aren't in a good workplace environment and a good position match for who you are, what you want, and what you have to offer.

Some changes bring personal growth and opportunity. Some don't.

For nearly 25 years, I thought I had it. I worked as a Yellow Page consultant for a former Bell company. Although it was commissioned sales, I was flexible in my hours and was pretty much autonomous in my self-directed days. I was paid well, had good benefits and a nice working office environment. It was a white-collar professional job where I got to visit with the owners and managers of various large and small companies. I was reimbursed for car expenses and received a fair amount of company perks from sporting events tickets to bonuses for meeting di yes"> It was safer for those I loved to refrain from sharing important issues or concerns with me, never knowing how I would react.

The lie goes like this:"Buy my system and set up a website and the money will pour
in!"What a pile of crap. Complete POOP.Don't you think if it was that easy more people would be
making 7 figures online?You MUST have a system that builds trust with people first.
You teach them some SKILLS (GIVE, GIVE, GIVE)...You put some
money in their pocket and THEN you market to them some more.Let me ask you a question:If you had UNLIMITED customers or prospects for your
business....... and it didn’t cost you ANY about the long term match between who you are and the job you have. When you're in a job that's good for you, you can feel it. And you can feel it when you're not. I agree with Barbara DeAngeles, "No job is a good job if it isn't good for you."

The world sure is changing, and if you look at job employment you will see what I mean. Let's just go back to our grandparent's generation, even though I'm sure if we went back further we would see very different structures of work in the tribal periods of our history. Our grandparents usually found a skill, and then used that one skill to work for their whole career. An example is my grandfather who was a salesman for the same suit company for 44 years. There is nothing wrong with this. His job was secure; he knew there would be a superannuating fund whould change jobs or companies. Transferring to another team, volunteering for a new project, or asking your boss for new responsibilities may be all it takes.

I've worked in jobs where I couldn't wait until Monday. That's when I'm so excited about the new project or the new idea or the next thing I'm working on that it's not work to me. It's a challenging, interesting, stimulating and fun way to spend my day. And, I'm a lot happier when that's the case.
