Something to ponder

Image
Well I finally have a little time and energy to post a little something here. I've had one question that has been rolling around in my head for some time. "How does someone supervise over jobs they have never done?" I always thought a supervisor was someone who had experience doing a job and that they could help someone else do the job if they needed help or advice. You know someone who started at the bottom and worked their way up. Someone who was able to do they job so well they could help someone honestly and productively.  But now a days, people are hired from someplace else with no real experience doing that job. They have a degree that says they know how to be a boss. But they have no idea about the actual details of the job they are supervising over. It's sad. They then try their best to get rid of the most experience so eventually they think they look smart to new people. Eventually the product quality will suffer.  I have asked a num...

Hiking and Pondering things.

I know I really missed the first of the month. I could have written something a number of times. But when the thoughts came to me I was no where near a computer. First off I will say we have been hiking. So far we have done four hikes. Here are a few pics from those hikes:  Picture of the Chippewa River. Taken during the first hike.  This nest was right next to the trail. The mama was very near by. Three of the four hikes were over by Cornell area. The last picture was taken during our shortest hike going east of here. We officially finished Taylor county. When we go east again we will be starting in Lincoln county.   So that is one thing we have been doing lately. Only weather permitting of course.  One other thing is we have celebrated our granddaughters first birthday.  They made her, her own smash cake. She got a bath right away after that. Other wise the rest of my days have been the same old same old boring days. Exc...

Just Pondering, Again

I know you were expecting me to post on the first. Well, the only excuse I can give you is....I was not in the mood. I think my posts here are going to be a lot more random. I will say within a couple of months I will be done with the letters on Dear Howard, A Fading History.  I might start spending more time here pondering things. Time will tell. As for other things going on in my life. I have not been able to start my hiking adventure yet this year. The husband is still not able to. And he doesn't want me out in the woods by myself. I'm still hoping maybe next weekend we might be able to give a short hike a try or at least take walks down the road. I've tried to tell him he could drop me off at one spot and pick me up at the other end but he is not going for it. He enjoys these hikes to and wants to see what I see at the same time.  Well enough about hiking. I do have a couple of pondering things to bring up. One question I've been asking people late...
