My life has been flying along @ a hectic pace & I Am Not Complaining!!! I’ve got a lot of plates I’m juggling in the air & they R all things that keep me happy, motivated, & moving FWD… Let’s back track a week ago & Feel My Flava…
Monday saw me enter into my Temporary Position as an Office Supervisor for the Materials Management organization. Walking in the door I am the Senior PS man in our group & probably have the deepest tentacles spread throughout the company… They know not of the Gold they have struck with me…
The Supervisor training me is a Temporary employee & is probably in the most difficult position because if he perceives me as a threat, who knows what his motives could B??? I haven’t seen that yet & I’m quite sure on a personal level I’ll win him over & we’ll do what we’ve got 2 do… But…??? Shhhh!!! LOL!!!
Vince my peer will fill me in some other things I need 2 do in order 2 B successful there & he’s already tapped me 4 my next project… Jim my peer who I in essence replaced is dealing with probably our most “High Profile” location down in Old Bridge coordinating all efforts there. That’s where I was 1st slated 2 go & glad the “Brain Trust” re-thought their vision as they saw a better fit 4 my Skill Sets…
Compared 2 my old position I’ve got a lot more things on my plate I’ll have 2 handle & not just 2 get up 2 speed… My cubicle space is half the size, I took 4 boxes of stuff out of there & literally only used 2 boxes worth of that 2 outfit my new space… The NY Giants, NY Yankees, & NY Nets posters immediately went up!!! LOL!!!
I took my company car home on Tuesday so I am back mobile!!! They R also getting me a company cell phone so No Mo’ Flying Under The Radar!!! Aww Man!!! Tuesday saw us visiting Clifton & Oradell. Wednesday we hit Harrison & Jersey City. Thursday we hit Summit, Plainfield, & New Brunswick. Friday we hit Audubon, Burlington, & Trenton. That’s just 2 show my face 2 those in the organization & work on my 1st project involving Security & Flammable Storage. Only location I didn’t make it 2 was Oakland but I’ll B going there 2 do inventory.
As I settle in & get my bearings I think this opportunity will B a Really GOOD LQQK 4 Me!!! I bring Managerial skills, PC skills, Fresh Viewpoints, & Relationship skills 2 the table that will enhance our presence with the districts. My 2nd project will involved overseeing the delivery of roughly 5,000 regulators 2 all the districts & minimizing the disruptions 2 their floor space… Hmmmm!!!
My Leadership Newark group met as we had our 1st C.L.I. Team Meeting. Our team is going 2 fun & krazy as we work on our project 2 complete year two of our Fellowship. We had some mini drama already (not within the group), but the organization we are partnering with… Seems they’ve had major changes & we had our contact bring them up 2 speed on what is going 2 happen with us…
The hard work begins now & we’ll have 2 manage our time, our responsibilities, our roles, & deliver a viable living breathing Business Plan utilizing all we’ve learned & what we can build as a cohesive team…
On the M.I. front we’ve finally nailed down the Registration Packet so the Career Conference is a go… As a member of the Participant Team we’re ahead of the curve on our early stuff…, but we must stay on track 2 make sure we deliver the Xperience our participants are LQQKIN’ FWD 2!!! The event is literally a month away & we’ve got 2 watch out so we don’t get tripped on small stuff that can turn into a major headache…
The Band has a gig this Saturday as I was able 2 nail down a spot on the Brotherhood Of Black Utility Workers New Year Kickoff… The event was scheduled for Jan. 9th, got cancelled, & now it’s back on… They wanted me 2 DJ event so I’ve offered the band as part of that package & Away We Will Go!!! We rehearsed last week 4 1st time in the New Year. Added a few new tunes 2 the mixxx & can’t wait 2 go perform 4 some live souls 1nce again…
2day is M.L. King Jr. Day & those of U who know me well no my routine… I will Not work on this man’s day because of what he meant 2 the entire Civil Rights movement from a Black perspective… Not just he alone…, but countless others who endured incredible adversity that some even gave their lives up 4 in order 4 the rest of us 2 move FWD!!!
Dr. King is an incredible hero of mine’s as I feel deep in my heart he knew he was going 2 B sacrificed in the process… Imagine living with that burden as U go on 2 pursue your life’s work??? 1 listen 2 his “I Have A Dream” speech & U can feel the NRG that resonated forth from this incredible man. Malcolm X is probably the man most folks compare me 2 in terms of my “Fire & Brimstone” approach 2 life… But M.L. King Jr. taught me quite a bit of playing my cards close 2 my chest & putting on a good front while strategizing quietly in the background… I haven’t mastered that non-violence thing yet…, cause I’m quick 2 wanna Step Up & Whup Yo’ Azz!!! But I’m Workin’ On It!!! LOL!!!
As Black Americans living in AmeriKKKa we can NEVER EVER 4get our past… Neither can we view those past trangressions & let it hold us back from future success… But U MUST know your history so U can understand the journey & ensure U DO NOT disrespect those who came B4 us & got us 2 here!!! It’s our JOB 2 take that ball, run with it, & take it 2 the next level so the future generations can do the same… Each 1 Teach 1 & the whole community must raise each other up so we can continue 2 B Movers, Shakers, Educators, Thrill Seekers, & Historic Figures In Life!!!
Use this day 2 reflect on what your life would B like without figures like Dr. King & what U would B doing or have 2 do just 2 Xsist??? I am 4ever a Kunta Kinte…, could never B a Toby!!! I Come From Greatness, I Deliver Greatness, & I Xpect Greatness In Return!!! Dare 2 B Better Than U Think U Ever Could B!!! PEACE!!!
