i.e. NOTE: ) Since August, 2010, I have been WORKING at Fry's Electronics selling home appliances found at many major retailers for more money. And my rent gets paid "on time". The SAME appliances, sharing many of the same parts accross company and brand identitites. Consistenly, less expensively priced Fry's http://www.frys.com (in store prices may be cheaper)
Someday I hope to prove I sett a record for opening Sears Credit Cards (Mastercard) in 1985 or 86. Did iT ALL without understanding what I was selling. A fact I face. And feel about faced. I can feel from smile to frown about it like I do not be leave. Knowing more about my life than ever wanted to know, I accept what is.... and more importantly, what isn't.
From my first "paycheck" job at age 15, I have supervised at a childrens day camp,been an assistant manager in a woman's "cloththing" store, Led developmentally disabled adults who graduated from group homes into semi-independent living., Sold business forms for Southwest Business forms,and clients included Cummings Equipment and First National Bank. Sold restaurant Equipment for Mike Marossy and the PepsiCola off-work installer nearly botched the installation of the liquor distributing gun system I sold to Rusty Pelican out of Colorado in their new Albuquerque location (1978?) First made my national appearance in merchandising with "Stik Time" stick-on clocks at a Time Magazine booth at an FMI trade show (Chicago) in January, 1981. My partner had just signed the first agreement with Time Magazine's wholy owned subsidiary, TDS, for stick-on clock distribution into retail stores. It was there he met Carl Cusack (sp?), he went on to work with convenience-store merchandiser, "AIMS"...An association of Independent Marketers headed by Carl ..."cue"-sack?...who later went on to be head of SEARS.... his brother later heading up Montgomery Ward) Met probably a thousand people who would remember me: I'm the one who passed out buttons that read, "I love a good Time, ask me", and recruited people to visit our booth where they could receive a free clock.
For years I spent every sent I made.A tax bill first created in 1980 had me in tax debt.. through 2010

INTEGRITY
Where do I want to be a year from now?
A month?
A day?
Ten years from now?
And how am I going to get there?
These should be the questions of one with hopes and dreams
In existence with no theme
No stand
Not in command
We drift along...
But the role I do not play
Means things I do not say
If I have integrity

In the last paragraph above, many times I thought of changing the line,...Not in command we drift alon"....and each time stared at the "rift"...Also thought of changing the line to reflect lack of relationship in this world.....[In existence with no theme, no stand, not in command] we "dift" along....
A friend of mine once told me, If you "do your best" and "never intentionally set out to hurt someone, you are a good person." For a long time I thought she was on-point. Then it dawned on me, it is not enough to not extend....You have to intentionally include others. This distinction will keep you from making an excuse such as, "I didn't know they were going to think that".
As much as integrity means one does not make false claims, it also means that you speak to others knowing their minds may be in a completely different space...It sets a higher standard for honesty. Beyond one simply satisfied getting out of trouble because of a technicality, whereby truth was "told". As i gho thru the truth above, I realize the role I play, also means things I say, if I am to show integrity, and tell the truth as I know to be it. Not accepting a lack of questioning as the same as a lack of responsibility. I have a responsibility to share information. Can not and will not pretend I know things I don't. Nor ignore things I do know. Can not tell you how many times I have gone from one moment thinking I am good, to the next moment knowing I messed up. Overlooking an important facet; or not taking another into consideration.
Everybody cares about something. The technology to hear the smallest sound amplified from a long distance away, does not make it easier to listen and really hear someone right next to you.
I’m a slinger of lang-lingeR thru th-rough of, Like egged-on, tower at tined...No more secrets...I'm-out....survived the gassed of sump, un-pumped and choked bac tiers too gross lined slime
In a Sump Thing em something...."Where’S OUR link?" (I'm "two" aware,and would not ask toward sour ink ).... I link to differ lime of link...With thrill goals, I shape speered ink. To soar my mind. And not sore think. I pray for wins of winds-oar think....where waves assist in travel link...I'll tell the jet-eyes that don't see, and yell to stars that spark pull me....And raise this site until I win...To Sheik-speer ink with "merry" link.
