Money and happiness

[krazyaboutkatz]

Kim, you have had tough times in jobs previously and been in miserable work environments. You are finally happy in a job doing what you love and have a year under your belt there! Extra $$$ is not worth the contentment you have now!

Just my input!
Kim

Very well said and I totally agree.

Bunny, the only reason I was entertaining it was because I felt I should at least see what they have to offer. But after seriously thinking about the benefits and drawbacks, I decided to stay where I am. I also have a bad feeling about switching. I have been really trying to pay attention to my intuition. Its never led me wrong before and I've always gotten into trouble when I ignored it.

I honestly think we as a store could take off.... some attitudes have to change first. The owner of the company is in our store all week to shadow us and give feedback as to what we're doing wrong. He already knows about the morale thing... even sat down with me and the woman who has it out for me. You should have heard how she spun the story of our last falling-out. I was floored! I was thinking "ok, when is she going to tell him the truth about what she did?" The answer: she's not because she knows she's totally wrong and she wants to keep her job. She knows this week is all about weeding out the people who are killing the store's productivity.

I can't tell you how much I love my job. I want to succeed here, and so does the owner. Because frankly, if I succeed, HE succeeds.
