Yep, Things Could be Worse

Ever feel sorry for yourself?  Things going badly right now?  Cheer up, soon we'll all be dead.

True, but just kidding.  If things are going bad, I just found out about a few folks having a very bad day.  I happened to see this memo by a local major employer:

"The _____ community is informed that there has been a delay with the supply of stationary which has caused a delay in the printing and distribution  of the June payslips.

We are in  constant contact with the supplier to try and resolve the problem.

The inconvenience caused by this is highly regretted..."

What would you think?  What would you say?

As I have written before, if we haven't learned anything else, we have learned that we OUGHT to have great gratitude for many of the things we took for granted before.

Sooo, if you have a job...and if your paycheck came on schedule, and if your electricity and water are reliable, you have a LOT for which to be thankful.

"The worst moment for the atheist is when he is really thankful and has nobody to thank."

Thanks be to G^d!

  1. Well, I worked for the state. I'd shrug and say, "Just another day." I was always relieved to get a paycheck on time.
