It’s Valentine’s Day and it’s Monday. Those two things really don’t go well together but that’s ok. Are you doing anything special tonight? My hubby and I celebrated over the weekend so we will probably just have dinner at home and watch a movie tonight, oh and maybe throw some homework and studying in too. I am definitely looking forward to some sweetheart candy, anyone else addicted?

My valentines contribution at work: http://envirocraftiness.blogspot.com/2011/02/cake-balls.html They were all gone by the end of the day, so they must have been enjoyed!
Jill-That is awesome! I can't wait to check out the link and see your Valentine's contribution at work!
I liked the How to Love Your Job article. I work at a bank, and we're pretty slow, so there's a lot of down time. Everyone dazzles up their stations with pictures, pretty calenders, cute pens, etc. We also talk a lot throughout the day. Our whole branch gets along really well. I've also found it helpful, whenever our drive-thru teller is at lunch or has the day off, to take her spot for a little while because she hast he only outside view, besides our manager, in the building, and even though it's only a small view of the highway and another building, it's still better than staring at the wall across the room. I've even though about getting cross-trained as a customer service rep, but have been hesitant because I'm still kind of young to be a CSR, but banking is not what I want to go into, so I'm still deciding if I should try to pursue that. Great article! Applied directly to me.
Lauren-I am so glad that you found the article useful! Good luck figuring out what you want to go into. I hope that you can find some good tips on my blog.
