One piece of advice that I could give would be “If you see a
bucket of “”you know what”” don’t stir it”.
I know it sounds pretty basic right - but believe me sometimes it is
really hard. A little back story on the
saying…I started working for a mom and pop shop about nine years ago. It was and still is a family run business and
the family has known me for literally my whole life. So the “old man” that started the company that
I work for – always had a joke, funny saying, one liner – you name it he had
it. You also knew where you stood with
him – he did not mix words what so ever.
So around here in this office he would always tell us such things as “count
your pennies and your dollars will count themselves”, “live and learn and die
dumb”, “finer than a frog’s hair split ten ways”. You name it he had. My favorite though is “if you see a bucket of
shit don’t stir it” (there I said it).
Any-who I don’t know how many times I have thought this thought to
myself or said it to someone at work or to my hubby when he is asking my advice
on a situation. There are often times
when a situation arises that one of two things can happen – you can let it sit
or you can stir that bucket just to see what happens. As we all know stirring that bucket can be
really bad. So I advise you that if you
see that bucket of shit – just walk away – don’t stir it.
