Sunshine

As I get up this morning I feel it’s going to be a good day…
The sun has come up, the birds are singing, crows are yakking at each other across the fields. It’s going to be 80 degrees today. This temperature will really help make it nice.

My first thought is I know I am forgetting to do something… Don’t you just hate that?

It seems as thought this happens to me due to a deadline a time when such task must be completed. I was sitting on the couch and kept looking at the clock… Wouldn’t you know it I did it again!

I scrambled for the phone the deadline is at 10:00 am it’s 9:52 am , holy crap! The plan was to call about our advertising to the local paper yesterday but it didn’t happen. Nothing like having the mind of an elephant, yep that’s me!

We spent the last eight minutes calling to make the deadline but of course the line was busy until 9:59 am then the nice lady calmly says good morning Sussex Printing… As if no hurry or care in the world she finished the call a few minutes after 10:00.

My second though here on Tuesday is OMG the last fifteen minutes before the deadline must be terrible. I know I’m not the only one. I wonder how many panicked people they serve in this fifteen minute period. What about the guy who doesn’t know what he really wants? I heard the other operator tell another person “you could do it like that sir”. I don’t feel so bad I just re ran the existing ads, it would be hard to make changes in 4 minutes!

Have a great day!

Hi, Wolf –

When I was working full time I could be an awful procrastinator. I’d put things off until the last minute then work my tail off to finish. At some point, I realized that I seemed to work better under pressure … in fact a psychological test they did at work as part of an executive training program showed my whole work style changed under pressure. I changed from a “work with others” guy to a hard-driving, do-it-yourself one. I also think I like to ride in at the last minute and save the day. These days, I don’t have a lot of deadlines except for the ones Muri imposes.

Bud
