Blog entry #2

Hey it’s Christmas I just woke up, it looks like a standard Christmas day in San Francisco. Cold! I woke up to the smell of food and foggy Windows. I am instantly hungry mouthwatering for the sweet taste of stuffing. We have no presents to give each other, but were going to just sit on the couch and watch all the corny hallmark movies we can digest, in one day. Now Christmas is here I just finished my plate and I’m ready to go lie down and sleep for two days but now its time for me to go watch a Charlie Brown Christmas with my mom. I’m out for now.

Diary Entry #1

It’s the beginning of my Christmas vacation. I’m so excited I don’t know what to do with myself.
I am anticipating what is going to happen on Friday besides waking up late. Scared that ill fall behind schedule I plan on occupying my time on each day with things i normally am unable to get done with my schedule around year up. Or apply the beginning of each day with a bit of tech reading to stay current and up to date. Also I’m going to try and focus in on my business communications work but most of all I want to have fun! I also plan on try and finish my book called the mocking jay, it is a really great science fiction book a lord of the flies meets harry potter book. So long for now see you next entry.

The Worst But Best Job I Had


The worst yet best job that I ever had was working at a home daycare. I had become somewhat of a jack of all trades I did everything I prepared meals, I did time sheets, conducted food plans, janitorial and worked with the kids full time by myself. What made the job enjoyable for me were the hours and the kids that I worked with they really brought me peace and joy. The littlest things made them happy and I was able to be myself and even act like a kid again and there was no judgment. When kids are that young they are like sponges ready to soak things up and have no fear of anything.
The part of my job that I hated was dealing with m y boss she was cheap and refused to hire anybody else so it left me to have to do all the brunt work and watch kids and teach lessons to them. By her being cheap and unable to listen to her staff she really made my work environment tense and slightly unmanageable in a space I felt should have been cool calm and collective and I dealt with her mood swings if she had a bad day I had to deal with it when she came home. It was just an overall growing experience learning to deal with all different types of personalities.
This job taught me some really valuable skill s it taught me to be self-reliant, organized and extremely humble. I also learned how to manage money keep a consistent work schedule also how to log everything from meal plans to lesson plans.
The most valuable skill that I took from that position would have to be how to do for myself and keep busy when there is lots of down time, But also to create a work structure for myself.
What I learned about myself and the work place was am dependable and self-motivated and in some cases I believe I can have the patience of a saint. But it made me become aware of how to deal with other people and the energy they put out in the work place. Learning how to deal with bosses but  of all different ranges horrible to wonderful.
