3.2- Job satisfaction.

 3.2-

Job satisfaction.

Many farm kids are blessed to not remember when they first went to work because it was blended with family and play time.

After jobs as farmer. grocer, butcher, teacher, principal, youth minister, counselor, chaplain, missionary, writer and trainer, I have noticed how people succeed in their work.

Show up on time.

Sober. Alert.

Don't leave early.

Do your job with a joyful attitude.

Think about what you are supposed to be doing to help you customers and the company.

Do the job as if the company owner were the customer.

Under promise and over deliver.

Expect to be paid what you were promised.

Do not expect to be congratulated for doing your duty.

When a failure happens admit it and correct it as soon as possible.

Do not expect work to be easy.

Be thankful for your job and the strength and health to do it.

If this job provides food, shelter, health insurance as well as a feeling of being useful then you are blessed.

Be satisfied with what you are called to do,

But never complacent about who you can become with God's help. Seek to add to skills and abilities.

Seek to give yourself to a greater cause than yourself.

Luke 17

7 “Now which of you, having a slave plowing or tending sheep, will say to him after he comes in from the field, ‘Come immediately and recline at the table to eat’? 8 On the contrary, will he not say to him, ‘Prepare something for me to eat, and properly [h]clothe yourself and serve me while I eat and drink; and [i]afterward you [j]may eat and drink’? 9 He does not thank the slave because he did the things which were commanded, does he? 10 So you too, when you do all the things which were commanded you, say, ‘We are [k]unworthy slaves; we have done only that which we ought to have done.’”
