Garage sale, halloween, shoes...

Here is my latest blog entry about our family garage sale and making Halloween costumes and new shoes… blah blah BLAH.

Here is what I really want to say:

I had my first really serious argument with my boss on Friday. It was about a project I was working on. I can’t be more specific but I disagreed with his direction. Of course, he is the boss. So what he says goes. And he is more experienced than me. So I have to believe that his way is right. But on Friday afternoon at 1:15, I did not.

Oh, I gave him a piece of my mind in the parking lot. And that is so unlike me. I like peace at almost all costs. I would never have told him my feelings so directly but I later realized why I did.

I love this job.

I love getting paid to ask nosy questions, and find out stuff before anyone else. I love that I don't have to put a spin a story in a certain way, just tell the story from start to finish. I love that every day is different. I secretly love it when someone says "I saw your story in the paper today." I love that even when I'm not working I look around me for something noteworthy or newsy that I can bring back to work. I love that when I'm at home I wonder if I'm missing out on something at work. I love the people I work with, even though my boss may not be at the top of that list right now.

So now what? I guess my boss and I will have “a talk” on Monday. Sheesh, I could be shown the door for all I know. But I hope not. Because I love this job and I want to keep doing this. And until now, I didn’t realize how much.
