  • Jackie's fork in the road
    Posted 7/30/2010 7:00:00 PM
    In this tough economy you likely are a Jackie or know a Jackie.
    Who is Jackie?
    Jackie is my best friend. A beautiful, intelligent and independent woman who lost her job this past New Year's Eve. But you can't keep this good woman down. During the past seven months, between sending out hundreds of resumes and pounding the pavement looking for work, she managed to find the time to persue her lifelong dream of starting her own home based business. It was slow going at first, but things are picking up.
     
    She called me today with a dilemma. Jackie's been offered a job. She admitted to being a little surprised at herself for being apprehensive about it. After all the crying and praying she's done, here's a chance for her to go back to work in a field where she is known and respected, collect a regular paycheck and recieve healthcare benefits for herself and her daughter, but it means giving up her real dream of being her own boss and doing work she truly loves. I asked if she would mind if I posed the question to YOU.
     
    If you were Jackie, what would you do?

    This Labor Day weekend may give you time off from your job. What does your work mean to you?

    A pain in the butt
    A paycheck
    It defines me
    A labor of love
    Still looking for a job
