Now I'm in a job I love and the job I used to have was eliminated!Carrinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00315240531222432104noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4322342362047478758.post-63078155899822446222008-10-19T19:04:00.000-07:002008-10-19T19:04:00.000-07:00I agree completely with your perspective on life a...I agree completely with your perspective on life and why things happen. I was working in Sales in a high-demand hotel but had a VERY bad falling-out with my Director of Sales. I was moved out of Sales and into Operations. I am currently the Guest Service Manager at the same hotel and love it. I hire and train the front desk, track occupancy, handle customer complaints and make sure everyone is happy! Despite the fact of how mad I was at the situation at the time, I now realize that this position suits me better...not to mention a nice raise! If that falling-out would have never happened I would not be where I am today! Thanks so much for your blog!!!Southern Dialoguehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04712150237373154795noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4322342362047478758.post-40177370937485354452008-10-19T15:39:00.000-07:002008-10-19T15:39:00.000-07:00I love the way you look at your life!

I've made big mistakes, many of which I'd love a do-over for :), but that being said, I always (always!) look for the positives that come from negative situations... it works for me :)Dianehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16637670293642285740noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4322342362047478758.post-54910238561921836262008-10-19T07:32:00.000-07:002008-10-19T07:32:00.000-07:00I was engaged to this other dude when I was in col...I was engaged to this other dude when I was in college. (it's true!) Being 22, I thought I could change all his faults (like raging alcoholism. Eventually, he left. Fortunately, it was before the wedding. I don't regret that experience because it made me realize what I DIDN"T want in a mate. And after we broke up? I met Marcus. He is much, much better. ;)Jen L.https://www.blogger.com/profile/02795875173289262892noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4322342362047478758.post-73248458660449818932008-10-18T15:51:00.000-07:002008-10-18T15:51:00.000-07:00We didn't become closer because of the mistakes, w...We didn't become closer because of the mistakes, we became closer because you finally realized that we are not the enemy and we really always had your best interest at heart.(and like I've always told you "friends come in and out of your life but family will always be there for you") Seeing the person that you're becoming makes me so very proud of you and I'm so happy to see YOU so happy. It makes all the bad times fade away...AND aren't you glad I kept encouraging you towards journalism?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
