Doing What You Love

Sassy Scrubs added a new staff member not too long ago. Kathy has learned her job at the speed of light and keeps us scrambling for new things to teach her. She often contacts our customers, just to see how they're doing. With her friendly voice and quick wit, our customers seem to be very glad she called. She's our Sassy Scrubs "Guest Writer" today and here's her story:

After having jobs with a lot of responsibility and having been home for about six months while I figured out what I wanted to do with myself, I made a list.

* I wanted to work close to home.
* I wanted a job that I wanted to go to when I got up in the morning.
* I wanted a job working for a nice company
* I wanted a "gentle" boss. One who would listen to my concerns and would discuss issues with me in a non-confrontational manner.

Isn't it interesting that none of the above issues are about money and benefits but about feelings and hoping to find a job where I could feel as if I was making a contribution and would feel appreciated?

After coming up with my list, I started thinking about companies in my area that fit the bill. I knew about Sassy Scrubs and the owner, Karen Bradley, so I peeled off a resume and a letter. I was thrilled when Karen called to set up an interview!

In my case, thinking about the big picture - what I really want in my life and what I don't want - have contributed to me having a job where, yes, I'm earning money and enjoying the benefit package, but I'm also happy. I like being happy!!

What's that old saying - find something you love to do that also earns money and you'll never really work a day in your life? As a grandmother who recently did that, I highly recommend you do it too!
