Customer Service Thought

So here is a quick thought to think about.  The other day we had a bad day at Circuit City where a lot of people were having customer service issues.  I have only been there for 7 days so I haven't seen much.  One of the other guys there made the comment "Wait till Sunday after church when all the Christians come in and return stuff.  That is the worst day of the week." 


Does that make sense to any one.  I mean we aren't supposed to be the ones none for throwing fits and making a big commotion about little issues that don't really equate to anything..  We are supposed to be patient.  I am now beginning to understand more, why people don't like Christians.


Holy Crap

You have to check this out. The new Mac OSX Leopard is the bomb.  You have to check this out.  They have incorporated so much cool stuff it is unreal.  Just take the time to look at.  This is the reason that I am Mac user.  I can't see why any one would ever buy a PC when this is an option that is available.

And so the search is over

I am the newest manager-in-training at "the Circuit", that's Circuit City for all you people that aren't in the know.  I know that after reading the post before this and comparing it to the previous statement must make you wonder a bit.  Hey! at some point and time you have to realize that you need a paycheck. 


So I have been thinking a lot about saving money and I keep coming around to the thought of ....


"Why should I put money in the bank for savings when there is so much need in the world?"


I mean to what extent do take the "do not store up earthly treasures"?  If you start down this path it takes you down the path of how far do you take "love your neighbor as yourself", "feed the hunger". 


This is one of those posts that has no real reason.  It doesn't help mankind.  It just as rhetorical questions that I don't think there are answers to.


So I guess I shall attempt an answer to these questions.  There is no one answer.  I mean, no one can tell anyone the answer to these questions, because the answer lies in the journey to find the answer.

The Search for the Job Continues

I have filled out over 25 applications with no job in sight.  People keep asking "What kind of job are you looking for?" For that answer I must refer to the great Lloyd Dobler.


"I don't want to sell anything, buy anything, or process anything as a career. I don't want to sell anything bought or processed, or buy anything sold or processed, or process anything sold, bought, or processed, or repair anything sold, bought, or processed. You know, as a career, I don't want to do that."


So, I want a career that impacts mankind.  Is that too much to ask?  I mean, am I wanting too much out of something that you do from 8-5?  I guess I am looking for that "dare to be great" situation.


Why is it so difficult for me to figure out what I want to do with my life?  I mean for most people that I talk to it isn't this difficult.
