Today started off in that ordinary way. The alarm sounded in that incessant tone, and I lovingly got up and snoozed. What better way to start off the morning!! :] ...then...I felt guilty...for sleeping in. So, I turned off the alarm and got in the shower. This was, of course, after flopping over in the bed several times, and rationalizing with God that it was much better that I slept in a little longer. Besides that, I should be thankful. It was good enough to get that mental nudge that drew me out of my dream state. I could have been that frantic, smelly, late, mad dash to the office person in whatever I could sensibly pull out of my closet with a quickness and throw on without feeling like some unknown stranger on "What Not To Wear". Hmmm, maybe that could have worked. Ok, probably not, but it was worth the second thought.
After getting to work I find out I am a mentor. wow. They entrust young minds to moi?!? This could be really exciting. I thought I would start off by explaining how enraging and devious the work world can be, or by comparing my past work experience to The Office. You know, the TV show -- the American one. It is by and large one of my favorite parodies of work life. I can never get enough of the earlier seasons with the hidden office romance between Jim & Pam, not to mention the incompetent boss, Michael, and the overtly annoying coworkers. Aghhh, comedy at it's BEST!! I digress. I will be certain to ensure this little mentee, filled with hopes of grandeur and traveling the globe, is spurred on to greatness.
