16 Signs That You Are Having A Bad Day

16 Signs That You Are Having A Bad Day

First you had trouble getting out of bed

You had a stiff neck

You washed your hair and couldn’t do a thing with it

You felt like you had a hangover and you weren’t even drinking last night

Your new diet really doesn’t seem to be working out

You pulled a muscle when you tried to exercise

Your new hat looked better on you at the store

You keep losing things

You feel like you’re always in the wrong place at the wrong time

The boss chewed you out at work

You got caught in the rain at lunchtime

Then the lunch you had didn’t seem to agree with you

You feel trapped

Uninvited guests showed up at dinnertime

On top of that you think you’re coming down with the flu

And finally, you’re alone in the house at night when

you think you hear a noise in the basement

Have a Purrfect Day!

FIVE MINUTE MANAGEMENT COURSE

      5 minute management course

 

Lesson 1:

A man is getting into the shower just as his wife is finishing up her shower, when the doorbell rings.

The wife quickly wraps herself in a towel and runs downstairs.

When she opens the door, the re stands Bob, the next-door neighbor.

Before she says a word, Bob says, ‘I’ll give you $800 to drop that towel.’

After thinking for a moment, the woman drops her towel and stands naked in front of Bob, after a few seconds, Bob hands her $800 and leaves.

The woman wraps back up in the towel and goes back upstairs.

When she gets to the bathroom, her husband asks, ‘Who was that?’

‘It was Bob the next door neighbor,’ she replies.

‘Great,’ the husband says, ‘did he say anything about the $800 he owes me?’

Moral of the story:

If you share critical information pertaining to credit and risk with your shareholders in time, you may be in a position to prevent avoidable exposure.

Lesson 2:

A priest offered a Nun a lift.

She got in and crossed her legs, forcing her gown to reveal a leg.

The priest nearly had an accident.

After controlling the car, he stealthily slid his hand up her leg.

The nun said, ‘Father, remember Psalm 129?’

The priest removed his hand.  But, changing gears, he let his hand slide up her leg again.

The nun once again said, ‘Father, remember Psalm 129?’

The priest apologized ‘Sorry, sister but the flesh is weak.’

Arriving at the convent, the nun sighed heavily and went on her way.

On his arrival at the church, the priest rushed to look up Psalm 129.  It said, ‘Go forth and seek, further up you will find glory.’

Moral of the story:

If you are not well informed in your job, you might miss a great opportunity.

Lesson 3:
A sales rep, an administration clerk, and the manager are walking to lunch when the y find an antique oil lamp.

They rub it and a Genie comes out.

The Genie says, ‘I’ll give each of you just one wish.’

‘Me first! Me first!’ says the admin clerk. ‘I want to be in the Bahamas , driving a speedboat, without a care in the world!’

Puff! She’s gone.

‘Me next! Me next!’ says the sales rep. ‘I want to be in Hawaii , relaxing on the beach with my personal masseuse, an endless supply of Pina Coladas and the love of my life.’

Puff! He’s gone.

‘OK, you’re up next,’ the Genie says to the manager.


The manager says: ‘I want those two back in the office after lunch.’

Moral of the story:

Always let your boss have the first say.

Lesson 4

An eagle was sitting on a tree resting, doing nothing.
A small rabbit saw the eagle and asked him, ‘Can I also sit like you and do nothing?’

The eagle answered: ‘Sure, why not.’

So, the rabbit sat on the ground below the eagle and rested.

All of a sudden, a fox appeared, jumped on the rabbit and ate it.

Moral of the story:

To be sitting and doing nothing, you must be sitting very, very high up.

Lesson 5

A turkey was chatting with a bull:

‘I would love to be able to get to the top of that tree’ sighed the turkey, ‘but I haven’t got the energy.’

‘Well, why don’t you nibble on some of my droppings?’ replied the bull. They’re packed with nutrients.’

The turkey pecked at a lump of dung, and found it actually gave him enough strength to reach the lowest branch of the tree.

The next day, after eating some more dung, he reached the second branch.

Finally after a fourth night, the turkey was proudly perched at the top of the tree.

He was promptly spotted by a farmer, who shot him out of the tree.

Moral of the story:

Bull Shit might get you to the top, but it won’t keep you there..

Lesson 6

A little bird was flying south for the winter. It was so cold the bird froze and fell to the ground into a large field.

While he was lying there, a cow came by and dropped some dung on him.

As the frozen bird lay the re in the pile of cow dung, he began to realize how warm he was.

The dung was actually thawing him out!

He lay the re all warm and happy, and soon began to sing for joy.

A passing cat heard the bird singing and came to investigate.

Following the sound, the cat discovered the bird under the pile of cow dung, promptly dug him out and ate him.

Morals of the story:

(1) Not everyone who shits on you is your enemy.

(2) Not everyone who gets you out of shit is your friend.

(3) And when you’re in deep shit, it’s best to keep your mouth shut!

             THUS ENDS THE FIVE MINUTE MANAGEMENT COURSE

Now send this to five bright people who have enough sense of humor to take it!

Godly Ways to Reduce Stress

GODLY WAYS TO REDUCE STRESS …

 

[]

 

An Angel says, ‘Never borrow from the future. If you worry about what may happen tomorrow and it doesn’t happen, you have worried in vain. Even if it does happen, you have to worry twice.’

 

1. Pray

 

2. Go to bed on time.

 

3. Get up on time so you can start the day unrushed.

 

4. Say No to projects that won’t fit into your time schedule, or that will compromise your mental health.

 

[]

 

5. Delegate tasks to capable others.

 

6. Simplify and unclutter your life.

 

7. Less is more. (Although one is often not enough, two are often too many.)

 

8. Allow extra time to do things and to get to places.

 

[]

 

9. Pace yourself. Spread out big changes and difficult projects over time; don’t lump the hard things all together.

 

10. Take one day at a time.

 

11. Separate worries from concerns .. If a situation is a concern, find out what God would have you do and let go of the anxiety . If you can’t do anything about a situation, forget it.

 

12. Live within your budget; don’t use credit cards for ordinary purchases.

 

[]

 

13. Have backups; an extra car key in your wallet, an extra house key buried in the garden, extra stamps, etc.

 

14. K.M.S. (Keep Mouth Shut). This single piece of advice can prevent an enormous amount of trouble.    

 

15 Do something for the Kid in You everyday.

 

[]

 

16. Carry a Bible with you to read while waiting in line.

 

17. Get enough rest.

 

18. Eat right.

 

19 Get organized so everything has its place.

 

[]

 

20. Listen to a tape while driving that can help improve your quality of life.

 

21. Write down thoughts and inspirations.

 

22. Every day, find time to be alone.

 

23. Having problems? Talk to God on the spot. Try to nip small problems in the bud. Don’t wait until it’s time to go to bed to try and pray.

 

24. Make friends with Godly people.

 

[]

 

25. Keep a folder of favorite scriptures on hand.

 

26. Remember that the shortest bridge between despair and hope is often a good ‘Thank you God.’

 

27. Laugh.

 

28. Laugh some more!

 

29. Take your work seriously, but not yourself at all.

 

30. Develop a forgiving attitude (most people are doing the best they can).

 

[]

 

31. Be kind to unkind people (they probably need it the most).

 

32. Sit on your ego.

 

33 Talk less; listen more.

 

34. Slow down.

 

35. Remind yourself that you are not the general manager of the universe.

 

36 . Every night before bed, think of one thing you’re grateful for that you’ve never been grateful for before. GOD HAS A WAY OF TURNING THINGS AROUND FOR YOU.

 

‘If God is for us, who can be against us?’

 

(Romans 8:31)
