It's certainly not my 'dream job', but I like the people there and it may turn into something 'better', but not if I don't do THIS well.

Congrats on your new job, Dave. :)
My "dream job" is to become one of God's Elect! I really like the Boss and His plan for the future! 8)

For me it's s job. After 15 survival and I thank God that I don't really hate my years at it, I am cool with it, but I don't love it. :)

What would you say to being a slave under pharaoh ? same here - its just another worldly fear - some say we need to work under taskmasters some plainly battle in that area, its a matter of priority
some say we blessed if we get a Job some don't give a hoot - we have our source and the well is said to be deep -
wanting to get to that place ...

Congrats! I know how exciting it is to land a new job! :-)
Remember what our "fearless leader" sez:
Now that you will be rich --you are obligated to SHARE with the poor (who may or may not want to work!)
Anyway--politics aside: May God be with you in your new venture!

Thanks Claudia, it's all Him!
And Dave, you know that's right! I know how you feel brother. I recently started up a second job making pizza dough for Little Ceasars. It's been a couple of months now. That first day.... I was like "Help me into bed, I can't lift my legs"
But now I'm like this after work... "Woohoo, lets put our roller skates on kids and go skating!"
Then my kids sing the "Dad is great, for letting us go Skate.... Dad is great, for letting us go skate" song.....
haha okay, the song didn't happen, but the first part did. I think our bodies get used to beatings after a few days.

Oh, JohnChris,
I know what you mean. A while back I read a book called "48 days to the work you love" and it changed my percpective on work and play. This is one of the sayings out of he book...
“The masters in the art of living make little distinction between their work and their play, their labor and their leisure. Their minds and their bodies, their information and the their recreation, their love and their religion. They hardly know which is which; they simply pursue their vision of excellence at whatever they do leaving others to decide whether they are working or playing.” James A. Michener
If I remember correctly, in the Hebrew language, there is no word for "work". The word is "avo-da" and means "worship".
Anyhoo, it's really good information for those that want to think about changing professions or jobs. It asks the right type of questions like "What did you do as a kid that made you feel like you were 'in the zone'"? What do you just naturally think about that you enjoy throughout the day? What do you do when your NOT getting paid?
God has made so many different people, with so many cool and differing abilities, it's absolutely amazing!
I have a young friend who makes natural bird cages out of twigs and limbs he gets from the woods out by his home. He posts them on a website and people buy His hand made bird cages!!! That's how he makes a living!!!! AMAZING! So cool to see God doing all this stuff. :)
