A Thought…

My experience has been that if you have an employer who cares about you and makes your work meaningful, you want to be fully engaged. But when your employer sees you as nothing more than a cipher, you owe them the bare minimum.

   — cdward, Non Sequitur comic letters

The worst thing an employee can do is give the boss EXACTLY what he asks for.

I had an expression, “The problem with loyal dogs, computers and second lieutenants is that they do exactly what you tell them to do instead of what you need them to do.”   — dflak

A View of Our Beautiful Area From Overlook Mountain's Fire Tower

View from Overlook Mountain 08

This view is looking north towards some of the eastern Catskills into Greene County. On the left is Indian Head Mountain (3573 feet/1088 m). Just as the southwestern Catskills, around Sullivan and southern Ulster Counties, became known as the "Borscht Belt" for their many hotels catering principally to a Jewish clientele, the northeastern Catskills are often referred to as the "Irish Catskills" for their large population of Irish descent. The Durham area contains an Irish-American museum and hosts several Irish and Celtic-themed festivals each year.
