Word for the Day: Saturday, March 22, 2014

The Word for Today (Saturday) is Acknowledgement. And, if you're a business, you'll prosper better if you acknowledge your biggest patrons. When I've been a "regular" in restaurants, I've had the experience of being "taken for granted", and treated worse and worse. I've had the same experiences with the Computer jobs, in my life, where I save their rear ends, in an overnight emergency call, but there's, not only no acknowledgement, but also no bonus or compensatory time off. (And I was an "Exempt, Salaried Employee", so I was not paid more than for 40 hours a week, anyway! This helped trigger a Job Burnout in 9/1997. Yuck!)
