..WE HAD A NICE PARTY WITH RECIPIENTS AND VOLUNTEERS... BUT NO ONE CAME FROM THE DEVELOPEMENT NEXT DOOR.. ONE WOMAN DID WRITE A NICE "REGRET" - BUT THE REST DIDN'T EVEN ACKNOWLEDGE MY OFFER TO SHOW THEM AROUND AND EXPLAIN ANYTHING THEY QUESTIONED...
SO I TRIED ----- WITH A BOARD APPROVED INVITATION TOO !!
MARKS HAMBERGERS WERE SUPER- AND WE HAVE PLENTY LEFT FOR TODAY-- WHICH IS SHATTING DAY.
THANK HEAVENS IS IT IS A PURPLE EGG SHATTING DAY.. WE... THE RECIPIENTS.. ARE DELIGHTED WITH EVERY SINGLE BRICK PURCHASE. IT MUST BE NOTED...... MOSTLY BECAUSE THAT I WAS BEGINNING TO PANIC--- WE DO HAVE A FEW "CHUNKY" BUYERS BLESS THEM THAT THEY CAN BUY CHUNKS, BUT THERE WERE- ,, WELLL BY ACTUAL STATS.-- I WENT AND COUNTED..THERE WERE OVER 300 PEOPLE WHO BOUGHT 1OR 2 BRICKS--- AND 15 WHO BOUGHT CHUNKS OF 20 OR MORE... SO EVERY ONE IS OUR BREAD AND BUTTER - BUT THE 1'S AND 2'S DO MOUNT UP-- SO NOW IF ALL YOU WOULD GO GET A FRIEND TO BUY ONE I WOULD BE LAUGHING BY MID MONTH...
EVERY TIME I TALK TO A DAILY DOGGIE PERSON THAT HAS NEVER HEARD OF THE CHICKEN BRICKS, I CRINGE KNOWING THAT IS A FAILURE OF OUR SYSTEM....
WHEN I GET AN APPLICANT WHO HAS NEVER HEARD OF OUR WEB SITE.. I REALLY STRES...
WE DON'T CHARGE FOR OUR DOGS GRANTED... AND WE DON'T INSIST PEOPLE FUND RAISE FOR US, BUT LETS BE PRACTICAL.... SOMEHOW WE HAVE TO PAY THE TRASH COLLECTOR--- SO THE PERSON WHO COMES IN AND SAYS "I BOUGHT A BRICK TO SUPPORT YOUR WONDERFUL ORGANIZATION EVEN IF I DON'T GET A DOG"..... THAT ATTITUDE GETS NOTICED...
LIKE STEVE-- OUR RESIDENT VETERAN -- WHO SUFFERS WITH A JOB OF TRAINING CRAZY DOGS IN THE FREEZING COLD AND BLAZING HEAT- SO HE CAN "PAY IT FORWARD" TO THE NEXT GUY WHO NEEDS A CHARLIE.... I AM SURE HE COULD QUALIFY FOR A NICE CUSHY JOB PUSHING PAPERS AROUND HIS DESK --- BUT I ALSO HOPE HE WOULD HATE THAT-
DID YOU NOTICE THE FIRST ONE I WOULD PAY IS THE TRASH COLLECTOR ??? I WOULD NOT NOTICE IF THE PRESIDENT OF THE COUNTRY TAKES A VACATION TO PLAY GOLF--- BE IT HILLARY, OR TRUMP, OR WHOEVER ELSE IS APPLYING FOR THE JOB, BUT IF THAT TRASH GUY IS EVEN A FEW HOURS LATE.... I NOTICE. I SMILE AND WAVE AT HIM.... HE HAS A JOB TO DO, AND HE IS DOING IT.
I KNOW I HAVE ASKED THIS QUESTION BEFORE, ... JUST HOW INTELLIGENT CAN THESE CANDIDATES BE..... STRUGGLING FOR TEH JOB.... WHEN 25% GET SHOT AT AND 10% KILLED ON THE JOB.
PERSONALLY , I WOULD NOT EVEN GO TO THE CONVENTIONS.!!
******
HOWEVER...
EXECUTIVE DECISION OF THE DAY--- THE BED.--- WE USUALLY HAVE IT IN FRONT OF THE T TENT AND STRUGGLE TO GET SOME SHADE ON IT... WELL, IF WE COULD MOVE TEH SEDINTARY CROWD OF PEOPLE TO THE G- TENMT, AND KEEP THE BED IN THE SHADE OF THAT, THE DOGS WOUDL BE MORE COMFORTABLE
SO TODAY --- MY JOB WILL BE TO COMPRESS ALL THE GROUNDSKEEPING EQUIPMENT INTO THE BACK OF TEH G TENT IN "BUDS WORLD" ---- WE SEEM TO HAVE A REPRODUCTIE BONANZA GOING ON WITH MOWERS... PEOPLE KEEP GIVING US MOWERS THAT DON'T WORK , AND BUD ACCEPTS TEH CHALLANGE AND FIXES THEM-- - ALONG WITH THE RIDE ON MOWER, , WE SEEM TO HAVE AT LEAST 5 WALK-BEHINDS...
THIS CONCEPT ILLIUSTRATES A PROBLEM WITH TODAYS EDUCATION.-- NO ONE FIXES- THE LOGIC OF REPAIR IS LOST ON THE WHOLE GENERATION.... "IT DOESN'T WORK" IS A DEAD END- AND IT SHOLDN'T BE.....
NOW WHO WANTS TO GO TO --- "I DON'T WORK" .
DO YOU VOLUNTEER?
WHOOPS.......I AM IN TROUBLE AGAIN......
ESPECIALLY IF YOU DRIVE.....GO SHOPPING FOR SOMEONE WHO GAVE UP THEIR LICENSE DUE TO AGE- OR OTHER INFIRMITY. BAKE A CAKE FOR THE FIREDEPARTMENT--- DO SOMETHING.
