Hmmm, actually, one does not only get ONE opportunity for respect or career.
I have changed careers three times, beginning as a Social Worker for eight years, changing to Medical Technologist at age 30 (working in research labs for about 10 years as well), and finally becoming a General Contractor at age 50.
In each of my changes, I left with good respect from my employers and colleagues, but even when one loses respect, it CAN be regained. It will just take a LOT of time, consistency and patience. Respect is much more important to maintain than a career, as it IS very difficult to regain, but not impossible. 🤠
WOW Kally, THAT’S telling it like it is (Most of the time)
What is lost CAN be found; but only with GREAT effort and diligence. There is ALWAYS a price to pay for our errors. Still it IS better to pay THAT price than it is to pretend that it does NOT matter.
“To thy own self be true” (Shakespeare) (then practice this candid truth with all others.)
Profound and true! I was blessed with a lengthy career in the classroom. I doubt my eyes could see the 40 years ahead when I graduated from college. Kally, best wishes for the rest of your week.
The quote is very true but the lemon in the picture makes me wonderWhen your career gives you lemons, make a custard. and think about the quote while eating it. Thanks Kally
