Job Security! :)


So, today I had to be at work at 7 a.m. for the office wide meeting. Anyone who knows us, knows neither one of us are morning people. Thank goodness it's Friday!
We are supposed to have one once a month I think , but we haven't had one in a while. The meetings frustrate me because almost always everything they have to say in the meetings could be put in an office wide email that takes 10 minutes to read. One good thing that came out of the meeting this morning was that I feel even better about my job than I did before. I've always known that I'm very blessed to have the job I have. It's a great corporation I work for, that truly does invest in their employees. We had a few corporate people at the meeting this morning speaking about what a financially conservative corporation HCSC is. Last year the stock market ended at negative 38% for the whole year. HCSC is a non-profit, which means that it does not have investments in the stock market, so as bad of a year as it was for businesses everywhere last year, we only lost .5%. Instead of people losing jobs, jobs were created, and instead of cutting benefits, our 401 k match went up from 4% to 6%, which when you think about it in the long run, is a REALLY GREAT thing. There are some things that I dislike about my job, but that's with any job for anyone.


Hmmm...well, that's all I really have to say for now. Hope everyone has a great weekend!
