Hello Sally.  How are you?

=====================================

A big mistake

Today my leader told me that I made a big stupid mistake. I am always forgetful like that. I even forgot to put the things into the carton and sent the carton to America. Then we had a meeting about  my mistake. My leader said;   "Don't surf the internet before you have done the job.!"

 My colleagues are really upset. I know it is all my mistake. Now I'm really upset too.

 My leader said such things had never happened before. I really don't know how it happened.

However, It really happened and because of my carelessness.

My colleagues are criticized and my leader decided to impose a fine on us, not just me.

 I know I'll never forget it. It will warn me   to be careful in my job. Maybe some time later

it  will not be a big deal. It is still a stain in my job. Please  be careful in your job.

 I hope no one will make such  a stupid mistake like me.

==================================================

.

  One learns from life,  eventually, that all people make mistakes.

That's what it is to be human.   Of course, in the context of employment,

taking comfort in this fact and being philosophical, is not the point is it?

 Moreover,  such events can show us, that we are not suited to a certain kind of work.

Some people are  less  focused on the  Here---And---Now.  There are "dreamy" people.

Some people are better suited to activity which requires a different kind of focus.

  I hope you do not  punish yourself too much.  I teach Bruce's Rules to all my students.

RULE #1   Never, EVER,  beat yourself up.  RULE #2  Love yourself a lot.

   Or,  as my Scottish ancestors would say;  "Dinnae  fash yourself Lassie."

(Don't beat yourself up about it.)  ---Warm Regards, Bruce
