Good Karma
My karma must be good--an ordained, practicing pastor has become a Realtor in my office!! [}:)][;)]

E-mailed to me this morning:
Yesterday at lunch I saw a couple of US servicemen (in uniform) in the same restaurant. I called our waitress over and told her that when the young men were done to bring their check to me and not to tell them.
When the guys got done eating the waitress told them that their check was taken care of and to have a nice day. They started asking around and one of the other waitresses told them that I had paid their check so they came over and thanked me. I told them to enjoy it and thanks for their service and we chatted a bit and they left.
Back at work I was feeling good about it and got a phone call from an old friend from out of state saying that he was in town and wanted to meet for drinks and dinner. Upshot of it was this guy had flown from New Jersey to Bakersfield to ask me if I would take a Plant Manager's position for a large power plant in Mississippi (50-60 miles south of Memphis, Tennessee)
The position is for over $100K a year in salary plus perks, in an area with a cost of living over 15% cheaper than here.
Now I have to decide if I want to move to a "free state" or not. Is Mississippi a third world country?

While not a third world country, you will only have a few people who are up on world affairs or science. Jesus is god in the bible belt, but most are good folks and you will learn to eat many wonder tasting things. Just don't ask what they are! [;)]

I guess it works that way for some folks. I do a good deed and start ducking. Because by days end I'm gonna get crapped on. No good deed goes unpunished. 0 -
My uncle once told me, "Small job, small life!"
... at the time I wasn't sure what he meant - I was about
10 - at 18 I learned fast and knew exactly what he meant.
I've been grateful ever since!
