In terms of finding “employment” or a “JOB job,” I am looking to do something that utilizes my skill sets effectively, keeps my interest, doesn’t make me feel guilty for taking up to 40 hours per week away from my own projects, and pays me a salary that does more than just pay my bills.  I have applied to a few jobs, and the waiting to hear while they make a decision (even post-interview) is causing my interest in that job to wane.  Yet, I wonder — do I do something, just for the sake of making money?

That was my “old” me.  Now, I like to do things that mean something, that have value on an individual and global level, and make positive differences in the world.

This week is a critical week for me because my bank account is nearly overdrafted to the max while I wait out the journey to see what manifests.  Ultimately, my desire would be to spend all of my “working” hours (I like to have a balance in my life) doing the projects that are coming through me.  They feel extremely meaningful and ultimately beneficial on a far-reaching scale, and I will use the powers of my positive thinking and intention to see that manifest.  However, in the meantime, while I am waiting for this to happen, do I get a job?  Hmmm…..

I ponder this, yet focus on my initiatives while I have the time.  I feel very grateful.

To your prosperity,

Upon arising this morning, I was greeted with an interview on the radio of two people — one who work(ed) for a food supply company, and one who works for a hospital (as a janitor) in BC.  The story is around a rat infestation in both of those workplaces, and how it first came to light, how it progressed, what each of the interviewees roles was in that process (ie told their bosses right away, really cared about the workplace, etc).  One of the fellows (in the food supply company) was let go for his role in caring about the problem, and the other fellow was given a very difficult time, but recently received a letter saying they would not pursue the issue any further, and his job was safe.

When asked what the real issue was, the fellow from the food supply company stated it was the money factor — that it was a dollars and cents issue, and instead of spending $200 to fix the problem in it’s infancy, they only felt like investing $50 dollars, and it escalated to the point of tons of food being infested.  Hmmm….

And a lesson to all other staff from that management that if you “whistleblow” about a problem, you WILL lose your job.  The interviewees discussed the fear in the workplace, and that employees were too afraid to say anything, despite the consequences to the workplace and the impact on the consumer, as well as putting their own health at risk.  

Interesting…

To your prosperity,
