Day One Hundred and Twenty Seven: Educated


I am educated about my job.
Today I got a very interesting and wonderful compliment from a customer. He and his wife and daughter had stopped in my shop after visiting the college campus. After the purchased their ice cream, they sat around talking to me for a while. They kept asking me questions about the company and about my job. I thought that they were questions anyone could have answered. The man told me that talking to me had been one of the most intelligent conversations he’d had in a long time.


I rather like to think that knowing far too much about my company has made me intelligent. It isn’t useless knowledge; after all, it is my job. And I take pride in my job. Plus, my company has a crazy interesting history and has done a lot of good in the world.


So yeah, I’m pretty proud of how well I know my company and of how I’m able to talk about it with people. I think it’s a good thing.

Challenge to my Readers:
Even if your job isn’t your dream job, be proud of it. Being a hardworking person is something you have to take pride in.
