  • Employee Appreciation Day

    In the US, today is National Employee Appreciation Day. My company had a company-wide conference call and our President/CEO said some nice things about everyone.

    For the employed out there, what do you think of your job and employer?

    For me, I don't love my job but I'm good at it, I'm respected in the office, and get paid well for what I do.
    "For I desire mercy, not sacrifice, and acknowledgment of God rather than burnt offerings." Hosea 6:6

    I like my job most of the time. I feel appreciated. I could use more money though.

      I'm always still in trouble again

        The last few years have been pretty disruptive to my life. My wife passed away in 2019, then I lost a really great job that I loved because of the pandemic -- it was with an event production company, and when the China flu hysteria kicked off early 2020, all of our clients cancelled, so my boss had to lay everybody off -- and since then, I've been working from home in various support roles depending on the project. It's not great work, and when one project ends, you really hope the company has another lined up, but it pays well, and working from home is very convenient and let's me be around for the kids, which is important to me as a single father.

        But having said all that, I can honestly say that I'm happy. Philippians 4:7, "The peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus."
        Some may call me foolish, and some may call me odd
        But I'd rather be a fool in the eyes of man
        Than a fool in the eyes of God

          I recently made a job change and it is working out quite well. So far, the environment and attitude is very positive; I'm paid more for less stress. No complaints here.

            I love my job, because I'm my own boss and do what I love to do. Only downside is I spend most of my day at my commuter, so not a big social life.

              I’m still doing the same job I’ve done for the last 50 years. Duties have changed over the years, and it’s been an interesting ride. I’m still here doing it, so I must be content.
