2009 is here and it’s surreal to me.
I guess because it’s only day two of the new year, it hasn’t sunk in as of yet.
This is the last official day of my vacation and I’m sad! It has flew by. Back to work on Monday!
It’ll be refreshing to go back after this two and a half week break. I wonder if I’ll see any new faces…
I resolve to pray to have a better attitude and appreciation for my job. ( 1 Peter 2:18, Colossians 3:22) Also, to do a better job at treating my co-workers better (even the ones I don’t particularly care for) and to treat the kids that I transport with a positive attitude and discipline when needed.
I hope this year will be better than the last year, with more positive changes will be made to transportation and that there will be more emphasis on bus safety and the facility maintenance. I hope more of my co-workers appreciation for their job would change, knowing that it’s not easy to get a job (such as what we have and for the money we are making) in this area, and that they have a better attitude.

I’m thinking the same Chakia, it flew by and I’m working now on the mental not to drag in with a woe is me attitude:) Praying for my coworkers as well and that I will go in with the right attitude no matter what everyone else has to say who gets on my nerves etc. It’s going to be interesting because I was promoted to supervise more people but with my supervisor it’s not really a need and I try to focus on the fact that it’s God’s favor not man’s promotion let them step over/on you if they choose because they cannot be successful unless He allow it. And in the end I get the experience needed both in supervising people and dealing with vultures:)

I’m glad I’m not a supervisor at my job. They have to deal with too much drama! Amen to what you said about God’s favor. I’ll be praying for you because I know it’s challenging.

Yes!!! And I admit even with the drama I experience it could be worse so I’m grateful. And I think because I’m getting it from over my head oppose to the ones I supervise, from them to a degree but much due to things being out of order everyone wanting to run the show.
Yet it’s humbling and keeps me grateful again for His favor.
Thanks for your prayers too!!:)
