Best Friends are Angels

Sometimes we’re hoping for angels to guide us in our everyday lives but we’re not aware that God send us best friends to be with us always. If you have a best friend or best friends in life it’s like God has send an angel to watch over you. I have many friends in life and some of them turned to be the best that I could ever have. I treasure them more than jewels because they’re there to laugh with, cry with, work with, solve problem with, walk with, chat with and anything that I want to do. They’re just there to give me company and advices when I’m in trouble. I know that God loves me because He has given me best friends in life.

Best Time to Work

Early morning is the best time to work on my tasks. I wait for the kids to be fetched by their service vehicles and then I’ll be free to work on my blogs. I wake up at dawn to prepare breakfast and my kids’ lunch food because I want a longer time for my kids to be able to eat their full breakfast before they go to their respective schools. Well it’s actually the nicest time to work on all my due tasks but I just have to use the blinds in mid morning because I don’t want the sun peeking through the windows when I’m working. The sun’s heat when directly exposed is bad for the health and being exposed inside your house is as bad as outside. Besides it’s not only your health but the interiors of your house also that can be affected because they will look old and wear out easily.

Parting with Used Textbooks

I love reading books and I remember buying second hand books in Avenida when I was in college. I can support my hobby if I buy used books so I made it a point to visit that particular street where used books were sold at very low price. I have other school friends who went with me because they were also fond of reading books. I was telling a story to my kids about my quest for my favorite books and finding them on the sidewalk of busy street in Manila. 

I’m glad that there are people who sell their old and used books because some other people can enjoy reading and collecting books at very affordable prices. What my friend like now is to sell textbooks that she didn’t want to keep anymore. She has collected a good amount of new books lately and organizing them now when she found out that she’ll be running out of space. She had to part with her textbooks or she will not be able to arrange her new books on the shelf.

Safety First

In looking for a job we must ensure that we don’t only think of the compensation that we will be getting from our job but our safety as well. This is true especially on manufacturing companies which operates using various heavy equipment and machines. I visited many factories on my kids’ educational tour and I’ve observed that they have strict rules on operation to be sure no one will get hurt and to avoid occurrence of machine accidents. If only the companies in the last decades were careful enough with their usage of asbestos there would be no cases of malignant Mesothelioma in this present times.

This disease was diagnosed as the result of exposure to asbestos. Sad thing about this case is that it can be avoided if only the companies have proper guidelines and warning about the bad effects of exposure to asbestos. Better avoid companies like this when you apply for job. Ask about the company’s background, business and history of labor cases before you start working for them.

Hard Work for Small Pay

I’m buying from my favorite store for my spices, flour, cornstarch, cocoa, baking powder and other baking supplies when I noticed one staff that doesn’t seem to figure out how he’s going to transfer sacks of their goods from delivery truck to their warehouse. He’s doing it alone because everybody was busy on customers. Anyway he’s using one of those industrial hand wheels I’ve seen in office warehouse and it looks that it’s not enough to make his work easier.

He really needs another staff to help him. I told the guy serving us that my order can wait for 5-10 minutes since DH was not yet around. I’m glad that he got the signs and proceeded to help the other guy. I can’t stand the sight of too much labor done by one person. I was imagining things on how DH was doing his work on his warehouse in his previous job. There are many hard works rendered for just a small or minimum salary pay.
