Working in a school setting, I get excited by the prospect of extra days off. See, as much as I enjoy the work I do, it's still work. And who wouldn't rather sleep late on a Tuesday if you're able to? Especially when the alternative is waking up at 5:30 a.m. to get ready for … Continue reading 10 Reasons to Close the School

Nothing I Love More…
...Than having to pay for someone else's mistake. Yesterday, I got a notice in the mail informing me of a lack of payment on my personal property tax. This confused me because I put a check in the mail the week before it was due. The check hadn't cleared yet, but I figured that's just … Continue reading Nothing I Love More…
The Single Guy vs. the Awkward Email
We can all agree that it's awkward when someone wants to set us up, right? Which is more awkward: to be set up with someone locally? or to be set up with someone on the other side of the state? About a week ago, a coworker began telling me all of the wonderful qualities possessed … Continue reading The Single Guy vs. the Awkward Email
Day Thirty
A Dream for the Future This seems really similar to yesterday's post. As I mentioned before, I'm not really one to plan for the future. I don't know if that's a good thing or not. And, while I don't necessarily think of myself as a pessimist, I'm definitely not an optimist. I joke around with … Continue reading Day Thirty
Day Twenty Nine
My Hopes, Dreams, and Plans for the Next 365 Days Hmm... hopes... dreams... plans... That sounds like a lot of work. I mean, you wanna make God laugh, tell Him your plans, am I right? Look, I'm not a fan of making plans. I don't want to make wild claims that I'll be living in … Continue reading Day Twenty Nine
Day Twenty Six
My Week, In Great Detail This will just be a typical week. Not a specific week that was. Granted, there's not really such a thing as typical. But I'll give it a shot. And it won't be as detailed as the incredibly boring day I described in yesterday's post. Sunday-- When you're on staff with … Continue reading Day Twenty Six

In the world of banking, the people on the front lines of the industry are known as tellers. These are the people who are expected to help customers with all of their day to day banking needs.

The Single Guy vs. the New School
Kids, it has been a crazy week. It's been a long week. The blessing of a Friday is not lost on me this week. I even had the day off Tuesday for Election Day and it still feels like someone, somehow, managed to cram two weeks worth of crap into this one week. On Monday, … Continue reading The Single Guy vs. the New School
Just Call Me Transfer Guy
Is this a common thing for people? I'm really starting to feel picked on, but maybe I shouldn't. Maybe I should realize that this is just something that happens to people in their careers all the time and I'm just a part of the crowd. But, to be honest, it doesn't feel like I'm part … Continue reading Just Call Me Transfer Guy
