This symbol is like a beacon of light shining off the highways I travel. It shows me where the clean bathrooms are... the coffee to keep me awake on my drive... they are my office away from home where I can blog (like now) and check email and work on excel tutorials (like the one I am taking a break from). I always feel comfortable when I go to Starbucks. I know what to expect. I like the coffee cold and hot. I like the company, it's philosophy, and the way it treats its employees. Everyone who works at least 20 hours a week gets health insurance.

Now that I have given a free plug to Starbucks I have to go back and study the excel tutorial.

Zzzzzzzzz!

Have a fun day and don't forget to laugh outoud!

I just ran into this on youtube. It's the music from one of my all time fav movies.

I'm sitting in Starbucks

using my laptop... my son would be so proud! It is sooo peaceful here and the patrons are clean and quiet! I bought my Starbucks coffee card and signed up to use the in store wifi. I brought some job applications with me... one of them Barnes and Noble Bookstore... I know we are in a recession and jobs are hard to find, but if I don't take a chance I definitely will not get out of my present job, and frankly that environment has become too toxic for me to be in. The two pictures above are typical customers I have to wait on daily! I don't want to whine about the place I work... believe me, I have already done enough of that! Now it's time to take action.. I read somewhere, that if I don't like the the script, I need to change the play! ( I think it was a quote from Leo Buscaglia...if you never heard of him, check out the website www.buscaglia.com/) He is quite inspirational! I decided, I'm headed for Broadway baby!

I better get going with the apps, I could blah, blah all day.

Hope you survived Christmas and got everything you wanted!

Did you laugh outloud today... no? What are you waiting for???
