Please dont get on my nerves

Unfortunately I’ve been sick since Christmas Eve and I still have a cough so I decided to make another doctors appt. Now, I couldn’t see my doctor so I took who was available and that was NOT a good idea! I arrived on time for my 8:45am appt and right now it is 9:45 and I still have not been seen by this doctor. I am so upset right now that I can not even begin to express how I feel. Time management is so important when you are running a business otherwise you look unprofessional and unorganized. It really saddens me to say that this is an African American practice and I would expect them to do better. There is NO reason why I have been waiting for more than an hour and haven’t been seen. Then when I ask the nurse’s assistant when the doctor will be ready she gave me attitude. I don’t really need to explain why Im asking how long the wait is because at this moment I am more important than you as a sick patient. You better go back to taking vitals and flipping charts before we have a misunderstanding

I dont know

So much has gone on in the past week with the passing of Kenyon's grandmother that everything just seems to run into one another. In a time where someone passes away you can begin to see people’s real intentions and their real feelings. I just don understand the concept of selfishness and thinking of what you can get out of the deal and thinking that its ok to be that way. At no point in time is it ever ok to bicker and fight over something that isn’t even yours. I don’t get it, I really don’t.

Working myself to death

When did working become so important that we don’t take a break to eat lunch and that is seen as being dedicated? What is wrong with this country that people work so much they end up having a heart attack or their families leave them?  I have have been very sick and I have been to work every single day until I went to the doctors and she made me stay home from work. Why did it come to that for me to realize that I needed to be home? Is it because I was thinking about how bad it might look if I called out sick so early in the year? I mean everyone knows that I’ve been sick and they probably would understand but I think it’s about the way America views the work ethic which is so backwards  that we kills ourselves to look good for our bosses. In other cultures employees are allotted time to take naps during the work day to return more productive. In the Japanese culture women who go through a bad break up are allowed time off to get themselves together. Things that affect us so much emotionally can affect us physically as well when we don’t take time to deal with them. Whoever decided that working yourself to death makes you a good employee? When did dying for a company make you a martyr? I don’t want to give my sanity, my home life or my health to make a company a few extra bucks. The only thing they will do for me is send my family some flowers if I die; they will clean my desk and ill be forgotten about… So is it really worth it? I think not so I will be moving on.

Happy New Year

Hello All,

Well the New Year is upon us and 2010 is gone. Instead of making resolutions I just think of things that I really need to do and just do them, with no time line and no pressure to do them. I did however have a BALL at the Renaissance Hotel Water Table Lounge! The atmosphere was warm and inviting yet very upbeat. Go into the New Year with an open mind and a pure heart and only good things will happen in your life.
