Shrewdness's Journal, 20 Jan 23

The problem with girl scout cookies: no matter how many I eat, I always want Samoa.😄
Thank goodness, I am not a true cookie lover. Yet it’s funny how the rollout of Girl Scout cookies is exquisitely timed to the exact moment everyone gives up on their New Year’s resolutions, for it turns out that Girl Scout cookies serving size is one sleeve not 4 cookies!!!🙃
In case your wondering why there are no fat girls on the boxes of girl scout cookies is because good drug dealers don't use their own product.😆

Well, I received one third of what I asked for in salary, so I am still fighting for better pay. I have the onion salary - the moment you touch it, you start crying. 🥴

Off to my wonderful cheap paying job. It rained yesterday as I left work. Now my hair is so frizzy maybe I can frighten them into a raise!!😆

Have a Fantastic Friday!!🌺☀️
Life is like an ice cream. Enjoy it before it melts.

Now, if they were selling warm crusty bread rolls smothered in butter ……… that would be a major problem for me, Shrewd. I can walk away from cookies🚶🏼‍♀️🚶🏼‍♀️🚶🏼‍♀️

I am a true cookie lover and used to buy all the flavors of GS cookies. Maybe you should look for a new job.

I have never been a fan of Girl Scout cookies. I enjoy cookies, a lot, but never really fell for the Girl Scout cookie trap. Maybe it’s just cause I’m weird

If they hadn’t gotten rid of the Savannah’s smiles I would of bought them out 😅

I hardly ever buy commercial cookies because I make them myself, but GS cookies are the exception. Thin Mints. I have 2 girls in my condo complex who sell them so I buy1-2 boxes from each of them. I freeze them and can usually make them last up to 4 months if I buy 4 boxes. They are good.

They offered you a third? They are stingy! You hadn't a raise in YEARS. I'm sorry. I KNOW you are worth more!

It's time to start job hunting you deserve better. After I left one job, my former boss actually called me and apologized; she said she had never realized how much I did. Good luck my friend!

As an ex-GS, the cookies are always a tradition with me, and I get them from my boss's daughter. This year, I may just give him a donation for her troop instead of buying any, because both of us here are cooling it on the sweets

Hope you are doing ok. Try working on your resume. First to just help identify what all you do and to clarify what you have achieved. Then if you are on LinkedIn try reaching out to a couple of recruiters. Many aren't just working to find employees for companies. In my case I was lucky enough to find one that was looking for companies that matched my needs. Best of all, it didn't cost me anything. You deserve to be happy in your work.

Oh no, Sweetness, if you're going for the GS cookies, you're really going to need a raise! 😄😉💖😋

Maguscanook, I am not a big bread lover at all, but you made that sound soooo delicious!!!🍞😋😋😋🍁

Morticia, I am not a Cookie Monster, yet will put them in my mouth if their in the house, especially Samoas.😋 I think I should have that in my head, love my job, but I don’t think they realize all I do. 😳

Daddy Manatee, not sure why Girl Scout cookies are sooo loved. They are over glamorized factory cookies. I do like Samoas though or unfortunately. Stay Weird, Stay Different! 👍

Cheesegobbler, I can’t believe you don’t have tons Girl Scout cookies everywhere, shocking. I buy them and sometimes don’t open them and end up giving them away. Yes, cheese trumps cookies, 👍💕

Xovickybee, wow. I didn’t realize they did that. Maybe for dieting sake that’s a good thing. 😁

D-ismovingforward, thank goodness most of my friends kids are older now. Otherwise I was always obligated to buy too many .🙃

Kenna, a lot of people talk about freezing them. If I end up buying any, I will give them away or try freezing them as such. Good idea. 👍

BeauxS, thank you! 🤗 I wish I hated my job, and the place, but I like 99% of the people there and my work. Being a workaholic it suits me fine. I am not happy with the salary yet, but liking your job sometimes is worth it. I am at fault for letting it go on for so long.🙃 You’re very kind, thank you again!💕

Shirfleur💕, I know for an absolute fact they don’t realize how much I do. If I retire, they will be at a loss, and I often think about it. I am so happy the gal apologized to you and let you know your worth!👍❤️🤗

Writingwyo, that sounds like a terrific idea. 👍 Every month has some occasion waiting to attack one’s diet. Ugh!! 😞
