When I first started there I was so eager to make the most of it...I came up with new ideas, stayed late even when my book was empty, helped others when I had gaps.

And that it would be a waste of time.
This, and you're first email that said there's a lot of envy, gossip, etc at the salon right now but nevertheless it's still a cool place to work? I ALMOST had to respond just to that statement to say it sounded just like where I am right now! Anyway... I'd like to take this moment to shamelessly plug my blog at Nails Magazine: http://blogs.nailsmag.com/maggie/ Please read the last 4 or 5 entries-- because it's all one long rant-- I'd love to get some discussion started about what I wrote because I'm seeing a lot more of this going around-- more and more of us are still happy with what we do but having problems keeping our positive attitudes in the midst of grumpy co-workers. I remember some time ago we all had a long discussion about the book "The Secret" and how attitude affects things, and after I got all that written I thought of that book again-- I should read it, I guess. Anyway... Yeah! to what I quoted up there. For the most part, I still really like where I'm working too, but am having a harder time keeping my chin up while I listen to my co-workers gripe about everything and blame the salon owner for all the things they aren't stepping up to take care of themselves (it's a booth rental salon-- most of the gripes are not the owner's responsibility to fix.) And it pains me, but I may not be long for the salon at this point. Maggie Franklin: Attitudes Salon; Visalia, CA "Visionary rebel dreamer; obviously way ahead of my time."
