Did I say that?

In the light of a new day, I think perhaps I was a bit harsh yesterday. I am determined to push forward and have a great weekend. The truth is I really DO want everyone to have an amazing experience and feel special which is why it is so frustr...

I recently spouted while training some new buss girls that for me it's like a switch, when I'm on the floor it's on and when I walk in the back, off. I think the acknowledgment of this gift has rendered it useless. I've been plagued by a string ...

I look behind me at the jet stream that has been this last month and I can only sigh and think OK, Christmas then. Work has been a crazy, demanding, interesting, frustrating journey while my boss has been away for over a month now. I am both, re...
