Jobs

Most of us have some job or another which consumes at least 8 hours of our day.Some of us are fortunate enough to actually like what we do and our occupation is a part of us that we cherish.On the other hand some of us despise our 9 to 5 and it is only a means to pay bills.

What is a "job"? One definition of a job is, a regular activity performed in exchange for payment, a trade or occupation.If this is the case why is it companies want to make you believe that it is more than that?Of course profits drive most companies to get the most activity out its employees for the least amount of payment that they can get away with.So it would serve an employee well to get the most amount of payment for the least amount of work. A balance must be struck between employer and employee.

Most occupations only need you for a time i.e. until a contracted task has been accomplished or until your time of retirement.The employer gets what they need.It should only stand to reason that an employee gets what he needs.Sadly though too many persons have put all their energy,time and focus into an employer's bottom line while neglecting theirs.Upon disengagement these person fell hurt of betrayed because everyone always believe that they should be handled with kid's gloves because of their service.

The sooner you realize that a job is only an exchange,the better your occupational experience will become.They get what they need and you get what you need. A job is only a means for you to secure the necessities of life which are taking care of your family,yourself and render under the governments what is theirs ( the filthy bastards).No more no less.A job isn't my family ,I have one of those at homes.Co-workers need not be friends although it helps in the cohesion of a working environment.Your boss doesn't even have to like you personally but make sure you are doing what you are paid to do.If I am under a supervisor it isn't my job to find work,no need I do his and my job.

All said and done their is no real glory in being an "office rat", so expect none.Be ruthless in your pursuit for your ability to expand your financial bottom line.Never invest all of yourself into someone else's quota.Give what is required and take what is needed.

Glory is reserved for the battlefield,payment is preferred in the office space.

For men only!

Ladies this one is not for you!

Often I try to pass on some of my limited knowledge of the male/female interaction.Here is an insight into one of my thoughts on dating or rather the male /female experience.

I view dating through, the eyes of a man,like hunting.There are two types of hunters.There are those who hunt for sport and those who hunt to fulfill a basic human need of sustenance.

The first type of hunter practice their craft for trophies.The heads of lions,bears and boars on their mantles boast their egos.They are great conversation pieces.Only the best prey will do.This type of hunter spends huge sums of money on the latest equipment and gear so that they can collect their trophies.

The other type of hunter stalks and kill their prey because they need the animal for food and clothing.They use age old techniques and their equipment and gear is what is readily available in nature.Once the game is edible it is game.

We can equate that to dating.Some men look for trophy wives or girlfriends.They want beautiful women on their arms to boast their egos.They want to be the topic of conversation amongst family and friends.Men like these want it be known that they have a jewel of a woman.They spend huge sums of money grooming and courting trying to attract the object of their desire.

The other type of men want companionship.They want to fulfill the basic human needs of procreation and sexual gratification.They use age old techniques and are resourceful in trying to attract a mate for life.They look beyond the outer shell and their percentage of "interacting' with the female species is higher and more fulfilling.

I lean more towards the basic guy.We all are attracted to physical beauty but to me what really matters is that a woman has the potential to make me complete.

Men ,which hunter are you?

View of Islam

Recently I have been reading articles that suggest Islam is a religion of terror.Extremist and the media have now made a once noble religion into one of intolerance and radicalism.As usually there is always two sides of a story.

A little history lesson.When Europe was experiencing the so called "Dark Ages" ,Islamic and Asian kingdoms where in there "Golden Ages".Places such as Cairo,Baghdad,Damascus,Timbuktu,where centers for science,technology and mathematics.European nobility often sent their offspring to Arabic institutions in places like Cordoba,the capital of Muslim Spain.It can almost be deduced that such events aided into Europe being ushered into the Renaissance Period.Arabic architecture can be seen throughout Europe and the very concept of college is an Islamic one.

As usual the vain ideals of men have lay ruined another great civilization.The spread of terror through religion is not a unique concept.Christendom during the Crusades and the Spanish Inquisition,used torture,murder and war to conquer and spread their beliefs.They were not spreading the message of Christ but rather expanding their territories and solidifying their power base.Islamic extremists have resort to the same kinds of acts to highlight their cause.

Men such as Mahmoud Ahamaddinejad because of their sect's interpretation of the Koran are seen as madmen and idiots when in fact he has a PhD. in transportation engineering and a Master of Science in civil engineering.Religious fervor overcomes intelligence.The Arabic word "jihad" an idiomatic expression which means "to struggle in the way of God" now means "Holy War".War is never holy.The radical beliefs have overshadowed the holy tenets of the religion and more and more people are becoming converts ,in my belief, attracted to the fanaticism.

Individuals throughout the Ages have used religion,not to enlighten but to enslave the hearts and minds of men and women.Faith is not about honoring an unforeseen God through your lifestyle. It is now about imposing man made doctrines on others through unholy means.

The image of God has become sodden because of the selfish means and hateful motives of religious carpetbaggers.It pleases me to know that God is not like man.And one day He will be revealed for the whole world to see in all His splendor and His Glory.
