A sobering experience...

I got into work dreading this day and within a matter of mintues found out a co-worker got fired for the very thing I was dreading doing. I quickly sobered up and realized that the thing I dread doing, someone just got fired for not doing at all or not enough. I'll save the details of what the issue was about but I think it's imporatant to note that I'm at a job, you're at a job, we're at a job and we are here, there to do a job. As much as I wish I could be getting paid to sit at my cubicle looking good, I don't. I get paid to do a job and I am expected to do it 100 percent every day that I am here. Realistically I have been putting in about 25 percent. So my sobering experience is if I do not want to be in the footsteps of my co-worker, I'd better get with the program or wait for the bosses to say arrivederci!
