What do you mean, J?

I took the Keirsey Temperament Sorter online just now, and it scored me as a J!!! I couldn’t believe it. It also said I’m an S, which is understandable…I always score borderline between S and N.

At least good ol’ I and T stayed solid.

It probably has something to do with my job. I count things for the first half of the day, then I pile things in neat stacks until it’s time to go home. If that doesn’t make a J out of a P, I don’t know what will.

Also I’m in a time in my life where I know where I am and what I need. Can’t wait around anymore to see what life will bring along.

Here’s a page for those of you who are wondering what the heck I’m talking about.

Your not alone

There’s a sign on the washroom door at work that says, “EMPLOYEES MUST WASH HANDS BEFORE RETURNING TO WORK,” the sort of placard restaurants are required to put up. I’m not sure why we have to wash our hands. I mean, sure, it’s a good idea and all. But we don’t deal with food, and two minutes back out in the warehouse gets anyone’s hands visibly covered in dirt and dust again.

Just this week appeared above this sign a laminated computer graphicked sheet of paper that has these words imposed over the picture of a house.

Your not in this house alone!

Set an example

*Consider others
*Care for others
*Keep things clean

Do the right thing.

So I have to wonder. Would it be considerate to point out the grammatical mistake? Or would it be uncaring to nitpick about homonyms?

And is this a warning that someone is watching to see whether or not I use soap?

So today I took action. I pulled my trusty marker out of my back pocket and added an E and an apostrophe.

I think I did the right thing.

All God’s Chillin

I think I bought the ugliest shoes in the entire store today.

My New Balance tennis shoes have served me well, but after a year of warehouse work, they’re now falling apart. The assistant puller team leader was sporting some newish white New Balances today, so I asked her where she got them. She lives in Moore, right up the interstate from Norman. So I stopped at the store on my way home today. They had a pretty good selection and what looked like good prices. The only shoes in my price range that fit were these ugly silver and white running shoes with blue and pink stripes.

I was sure to ask about their return policy.
