People and how to deal with them-Part 5
People and how to deal with them-Part 5
Well it’s the fifth, and last installment of People and how to deal with. Hopefully we have all learned a little tidbit of info along the way.
This issue focused on being cheerful, and how that helps you succeed in your job, and life in general.
This is obviously something that we all know already. Who likes to hang out with a grumbler?
I love this excerpt from the article above.
“Having lighted the lamp of cheerfulness, he found that it’s rays illuminated him as well as those around him.”
Such a true statement. And check out the letter to the editor in the bottom right corner. Women have come a long way since this was written.
And how about some common sense manners. Maybe some of you need to copy this and take it to your Thanksgiving dinner tomorrow. :-)
These photos are a hoot. I love how rather than purchasing lighting in the work place, they gave the woman a miners lamp. And she seems happy about that?
And a few snippets from the wit and wisdom section.
“Reputation is a bubble which a man bursts when he tries to blow it up for himself.”
“The best way to learn the value of money is not to have any.”
“A one track mind gets along fine until it comes to a switch.”
“Vacant minds like vacant lots become a dumping ground for rubbish.”
I hope you guys all have a great Thanksgiving, enjoy your family and friends, and remember what you are thankful for.
I am thankful for all my readers, and I’m so glad you take the time out of your day to visit here.
I’m afraid that quote about money is true… after a look in my wallet I have to agree :o)
Yes, I have that same problem.
THOSE ARE SO GOOD, especially that last one. Without making a political commentary here, I will just stay that the last one is so true when it comes to what is currently happening in the world….vacant and misguided mines lead to trouble and the only effective arsenal we have is to teach and support our youth. GREAT WISDOM HERE, Mary! And to you and Al, happy Thanksgiving!
It is a very true statement for today’s world. Thanks Anita!
Happy Thanksgiving, Mary!
Mom says she would love to live back there where life was so simple, people were nice to one another and respected others. A whole different world.
(((Sigh))) Wouldn’t it just be awesome.
Great quote: “Vacant minds like vacant lots become a dumping ground for rubbish.” I think explains a LOT! ;)
Explains soooo much.
I know someone who quit their VERY GOOD JOB WITH EXCELLENT BENEFITS INCLUDING THOSE FOR RETIREMENT, because she had “to be pleasant”. She regrets it tremendously now. I never found it hard to smile and be pleasant…a secret to success. …:)JP
Wow, imagine giving all that up just because you needed to be nice.
Hello, great quotes and post. Thanks for sharing. Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family!
Hope you and Al enjoy a lovely Thanksgiving.
Stopping by to wish you guys a very Happy Thanksgiving!!
There is something magical about old magazines like this – and all the values and thoughts they represent, both through text and photos. Fun post!
I love how the guy is smoking a cigarette whilst drilling a hole for explosives! Very cool. :)
