1. I know that feeling sometimes.

   Especially when people are ungrateful after you give them help. One time in a random local neighborhood post, someone was asking for career advice. I said I could help and she emailed me with some questions. I answered them in a couple of paragraphs. Probably an hour to write it out. I didn’t even get a thank you back. Maybe I overwhelmed her… but I wonder if she ever took the advice or went to go chase the next shiny object.

   1. I guess there is a reason there is a saying “What have you done for me lately”. Ironically most of the people that had trouble with me letting them go or quitting come back years later and
      tell me they now understand. The only ones that haven’t tend to be in the exact same place in life as when they left 10 years ago. Of course, I am also in the wrong at times but the difference is I know
      a day, a week later after I’ve cooled down.

2. Love it. We have similar businesses and busy times.
   I’m to the point when I hear a text come in I make a “nice” comment 🙂
   This time of year I call a day off a day that I only work 8 hours.
   I had not hired high schoolers for a long time but this year I got lucky and found 2 great high school guys.
   Here’s to the dog days of summer 🙂

3. Any chance that she found the answer herself or someone else helped her out and she was saying nevermind, because she didn’t need you to help her out anymore? I’ll send a nevermind text in a situation like that.

   1. You could be right. Texts are easily misconstrued. Actually that story wasn’t about a girl it was you Travis 🙂

4. Trugs? Nice, that’s a new one to me. I’ve just been trying to get used to saying bewusstseinslage.

5. Shane, by the sounds of it you’re absolutely right – you would benefit from taking time off more frequently. Being constantly “under the cosh” affects our judgement and even our decisionmaking. Hold a glass of water for an hour. It starts out being manageable but after 20 minutes it can become unbearable.
   We need to put the glass down for even short periods and then we can resume holding it much more effectively.
   And, remember to change your cell voicemail for days off/when you’re unavailable etc. Manage callers’ expectations.
   And, finally, are there aspects of your work role/tasks that you can delegate (with the essential proper planning and execution )?
   Look after yourself Shane!
   Take care,
   Paul.

   1. All good advice. Thanks Paul
