I'm Walking A Clean Path.

It's strange that people usually don't take some of the things said at face value... I told everyone that I'm no longer doing the backup computer work.. in fact, I don't have that access anymore, as I had them remove it... but still.. they call me anyway... so I just pass the buck and tell them to call my supervisor... doesn't help though.. she's not there most of the time.  I'm not sure how people tend to get away with some of the things they do..  It's like few people actually have a conscientious outlook when performing their jobs.  Whatever happened to taking pride in your work.. I am certain I've touched on this in a previous blog.. but it's irritating to think there are so many people out there just coasting through their day... and what they do directly affects so many lives.. maybe not directly.. but still causing some effect anyway.  Even in manufacturing... someone lets something go through that isn't exactly up to par... well.. now that goes out on the shelf.. and someone may be depending on this to function properly.. I know it's not your problem.. but think if it were... wouldn't you be pissed? Life is difficult enough as it is... without adding more issues by making things harder on others. People count on you to do your job.. it's why you get paid, after all.. Maybe you don't feel like you are being paid enough.. is that any reason to take it out on the unsuspecting victim of your negligence? Most people just don't seem to get it.  I think maybe most of us are spoiled... I KNOW I've said that before... but it's so evident.. Nobody owes us anything.. you aren't promised another breath.. We all tend to forget that. If we look at it from that viewpoint.. we should all be thankful for what we do have.. not what we don't.. but we're all looking to get rich quick.. or make things easier.. Most of us have never known war.. or famine.. to worry where our next meal is coming from... we're more concerned that our computer isn't functioning correctly.. or our Wii doesn't have the game we wanted.  But... such is life.

I know I am lacking on some social skills... but that doesn't really fall into play here in my blog.  This is MY opinions.. if you are reading this.. it's because I've let you inside my head.. I don't mind... but don't think that just because I share what's going on up there means you have any right to judge me.. just as I try not to judge anyone else. I have friends that read this... and other people alike.. people I have never talked to.. people I probably never will talk to..  That's okay... we all tend to walk our path.. and sometimes those paths never intersect more than briefly..  I'm beginning to learn that.  The people who wish to remain in my life... do so.. those that don't.. walk away.. it's that simple.. I don't mind. I don't write the future for anyone but myself.. so I don't choose anyone else's actions.. The problem is.. that there are those out there that feel I've chosen their path for them... and nothing could be further from the truth... I am here.. and my friends will walk along side me... maybe not all the time.. but in friendship.. true friends can be apart for awhile.. and then take up where you last left off. Whereas some people just show up to knock you down.. then walk away again.. I'm at a wonderful point of my life.. more hopeful than I've ever been.. There's nothing anyone can do to change that.. with the exception of one particular individual.. I honestly don't mind being here when people need me.. but I refuse to let the drama try to overtake me as it might have in the past.. I'm walking a clean path.
