Scott free!

For anyone that knows me they know of my disdain for my, (now former), boss. There is no coincidence that he shares a name with the world's worst blithering idiot of a manager from tv's "The Office". The past 6 months of my working life have been anything but pleasant but, I'm not going to waste anymore time or energy talking about the past or unimportant people. What I am going to talk about is how ecstatic I am about my new job I started yesterday! The pay is the same, I don't have benefits at the moment, and the commute is 30 minutes as opposed to 10. Am I crazy you ask?! No. No, I am not. You want to know what's crazy? Do you?! Continuing to work somewhere and for someone that makes you miserable, THAT is crazy. After attending a wedding and the birth of a new baby all in one weekend it became VERY apparent to me what was important to me, (thank you to the Matejkas & the newly married Deutermans for the epiphany), and the environment I was spending my life in was not conducive to those things. Upon returning to Dallas I quickly kicked my priorities into their respective places. First priority, get right with God! Done. Everything else has fallen into place since then. I love my new job. I love my new boss(es). I love my new freedom. And I love that for the first time in almost a decade I am working to live, not living to work! In the coming months I will be attending parties, a wedding, and will begin planning a vacation to Paris, France! Family, friends, and readers...I challenge you to (re)evaluate your life! Look at what's truly important to you! When you find something that isn't, GET RID OF IT! So, thank you Michael Scott for being the worst boss I've ever had. Thank you for treating me and the rest of your staff like ignorant garbage. It changed my life. It opened my eyes and most of all made me live by the notion that you reap what you sow. I see nothing but a bountiful harvest in my future. As for others...hope you like rotten crops. Let me know how that works out for you. ;)
