Hump Day - Good Day

The man woke up in the morning and he planted himself on the sofa, he drank his first sip of coffee while waking up to the morning sharing it’s sun, and just sitting there in a moment of nothing.

He found that peace before the commencement of the day.

Shortly thereafter he looked at 7 files and had them all prioritized. Then he had his shower, and then he took out his clothes and cleaned up and made his bed. A routine that is done each and nearly every morning.

 

But when he arrived to his work – the phones began to ring, the corporate cellular.  He decided to let them place all the papers in chronological order and then be done with it.

 

Then came a very nice woman that paints within the premises of one building and she needed to get into the electrical room that was down the elevator. They both shared where they were from. He was mesmerized by her teeth. She was a beautiful girl and very rarely would the man say anything but her smile and her teeth mesmerized him. And then without thinking about it – he said, “Do you realized that you have tremendous teeth”.   Well she smiled and came back again the next day, and once in a while to say something leads into another. She told him about her life and where she was from and that she had a daughter. Now he knew that he was going into an area that he didn’t realize, so he asked one of his co workers regarding her. And the answer was, “leave it alone as she works for the company”.

 

She came back again to get some keys and regardless of what the one person said the man could care a less with what was said. As he was not about to watch every move he made within the structure of a company – when all he was doing was making a compliment and nothing more.

 

“Live by the rules that are set, but you can still be you”, if you can’t do this and can’t do that – then I would think that work is a jail house rather than a pleasant place where people can be their own selves while doing there work.

 

Later today I had one person pay me a visit and tell me the inside scope of some politics and the reason why the people had left the company I am with right now. The reason was due to one person that leads people by giving them no autonomy. There are the leaders that are in positions that need you when the going gets tough due to their own ways and styles and there are ones that lead by means of giving and sharing autonomy. 

 

With all that said how could I sum up the day. Someone had a tremendous smile that showed great teeth. And I like it.The man woke up in the morning and he planted himself on the sofa, he drank his first sip of coffee while waking up to the morning sharing it’s sun, and just sitting there in a moment of nothing.

  3. G'day Jack,
    A perfect start to the day, quiet reflection with coffee & sunshine, a beautiful smile along with a friendly chat in the middle to reinforce a feeling of well being, what more could anyone ask

  4. Nothing like a nice smile to brighten up your day. Unfortunatley, many workplaces seem to be close kin to jails these days.

  6. Each morning I do that my clock has changed. As I enjoy so much the morning and that self time for 30 minutes to an hour. That picture was taken not where I live now but where I used to live in the midst of August. I thought it had the appropriate look as I don't have much time with my camera right now. But within the morning - that is the most enjoyable time as long as I don't place on the weather channel and find out that it's going to be wet or white! :)

  7. You shouldn't have to worry about the white stuff for a while. This is you big day! I hope all has gone well on both counts.
