I don't really have a focus for today. Lack of sleep does that to you. Writing this blog in between naps. I find that if I just keep typing eventually I find a focus. I just ramble on and on and eventually I find something that I can write at least a paragraph about.
So today's focus is my job. (Technically I'm not currently "working" because I'm on maternity leave.) I work at one of the many Duane Reades in the city. Despite the minimum wage pay I actually love my job. Even though I'm usually on the register I find that helping and interacting with different people everyday is really fun to me. Maybe it's because I'm such an optimistic person that I figure out a way to make the best out of any situation but I really have fun when I'm at work. Between helping a customer find the product they're looking for, trying to figure out what a tourist needs in whatever language they speak, giving someone directions, or just joking around with my coworkers I always leave work in a good mood. I feel that I'm very lucky. Even though I'm definitely not getting paid what I need to support my family I actually like my job and very few people in the world can say that. So I'm not complaining... much... for now.
And for the song of the day:
