Hi everyone, I just want to thank everyone who has posted in this thread. I really wish I had the time to answer every post, as they are REALLY and deeply appreciated. My available time on the forums is very short. It's already 2:39 am here on the west coast, and I've only been online a little over an hour. I am away, doing something I really enjoy (and getting paid for it - lol) for at least 12 hours per day six to seven days a week, so my time online is quite limited. If you don't see a direct answer to your post, it's not because I don't find your post valuable. Often I read a post that is so complete in itself that I can't think of anything to add at the time. Thank you again for taking the time to add your input. It helps to make this all worthwhile. God bless, Dave

David, Thanks for letting us hear you rant and giving us the same opportunity.  It didn't change a thing but it was good to know that I am not alone in my thinking.  Sometimes we think that our feelings are not right because we are not thinking and doing as others. For some it is not their nature to brag.  It is good to be proud of what we do but we don't have to ask for approval for what has been accomplished by our hand.  This has been a great lesson!!! "Live and let live"---"People will be people"---"To each his own".  We just know for sure who we most want to follow in business practices.

Dave, it's for this very reason, that you do not see my name listed as a POTW!

Hi Mary, It is good to always do our best, whatever we are doing. To do less than our best is to cheat ourselves and those we share this planet with. However, it's also important to remember that whatever we believe, we didn't make ourselves, so our natural abilities do not make us better than anyone else. Therefore we have no reason to brag about ourselves. God bless, Dave

 

Hi David:

I saw the cartoon one our Interns left here. They do try to make a point :)

About the ability to " rant ". Talk radio is coming to TGAMM. We will be having an interactive segment where you can call in to discuss what bugs you, makes you feel good or ust flat out.. "  gits yah all riled up ".

About my thoughts on the subject at hand...
