    Concluding thoughts on the mundane

    I work currently in a high school kitchen (location anonymous). My current circumstances made a part time job the best choice.

    The job is something like work I did in restaurants many years back; notwithstanding a challenge for speed; rules and now the latest challenge on a cash register; where a job failed for me 20 years ago atttempting such work. I am thankful to have decent benefits and having also recieved bonuses and a significant pay raise this coming fall. Thankfully I have made incremental improvement on my evaluation; it will be seen if the full load of students on the register is something that doesn't mess me up bigtime in a few weeks when I start up again. Other than one other individual who I had a few good talks about the Lord with while washing dishes; there is simply too much to do and with loud music and other noise it is hard to have quality conversations on such matters. That makes the last post significant for me personally; seeing God at work. My last job in Pittsburgh gave me many opportunities with one employee an Accountant for many deep conversations about the Lord which I have missed lately. Of course there is the whole political agenda where I work as with many other places; being in the kitchen I am somewhat removed from those influences at least in order to keep my job; thankfully no one seems to get into politics.

    Unlike those who say they should dominate the world as a cultural mandate; I propose that it is the "little people"; those with labor and other inauspicious jobs who are able to shine the brightest by working heartily unto the Lord; going the extra mile and whose presence makes the light of God; the fear of the Lord and the love of Christ be made apparent to those around them; whether or not they get it. Frankly NOT being cussed at on a regular basis made this position much superior to my earlier file clerk job in a law firm.

    I praise God to have any work in this time.
