I don't believe in a perfect workplace. There is no ideal position. Dream jobs only stay dreamy for so long. What I do believe in is reminding myself how I got where I am and where I want to go next. That second reminder can feel exciting. Also- there is one part of this quote that is funny, but that I don't agree with (sorry Tina). I actually really like hiring people who were jerky to me. Its like karma and quiet, subtle, retribution rolled up into a lovely "guess whose asking who for a job now!" Kill 'em with kindness. Also, hiring past jerks opens up this window for redemption that can be a beautiful gift.
Happy Friday and enjoy the holiday weekend. I'll be celebrating a marriage with family and seeing a long lost sister-in-law who is back from CA for the summer. I intend to do absolutely no driving (only passenger seat travel for me), some good, tasty eating, and definitely some sweet, family hugging too.
