May 5
Cinco de Mayo!
Eh, that's not really any celebration for me, personally I think it's just an excuse for people to get drunk with lime in their beer, and I think that's silly.
What a day! Not super slammed busy, but I feel like I got a lot accomplished at work today. While talking with a couple of the techs, I had sort of epiphany. We were talking about how the techs are treated as far as fair payment, and I was trying to be sympathetic, but I'm an hourly employee so I just really don't understand. I also get paid for overtime when I work overtime, the body techs don't....but they are kind of required to work over time, which is really lousy.
One of them asked me if I would be bothered if I were still at my same wage, in 5 years. I kind of blurted out, with out really thinking about it, "I'm not gonna be here still in 5 years....."
After thinking about that this afternoon, I came to this conclusion; there are two questions I need to ask myself, 1. Where do I see myself in 5 years, and 2. Where do I want to be in 5 years?
They may seem like the same question, but in fact they are very different....with very different answers. I'm still thinking about both. I was also thinking about that, not just for me but for my family as well. I've never really been a goal setter. Just something to consider.
I got the johnny jump up out tonight, and we gave Martyn a test run in it. He's totally holding himself up fine, but the seat is still just a bit big for him, so he needs a blanket tucked in with him, so he doesn't sling himself around too much. We had him in it for a good 20 minutes before he decided he was done....it was pretty cute I have to say. I think when he's a little bit bigger, he will really enjoy it.
Love the johnny jumpup. Of course. I discovered it with Jon and then you, too, enjoyed one. But Jon was the Jumping Boy. He did a number of di-dos in it. Once (in the trailer) it came out of the ceiling and bonked his head. Maybe that's what's the matter with him today?
