Hello gang! This week was my best week so far in 2019. I have remained steadfast, consistently self determined and cheerfully optimistic in pursuit of my employment expectations. I let nothing stop or sidetract me from my aim. Like a sharp shooter I stayed focused. I battle the waether...cold...ice...snow and freezing rain. I spent endless hours up and down Interstates and highways in Missouri. Experienced brief spells of homelessness. Sleeping in my car. My diet consisted of peanutbutter and jelly sandwiches with leamon water, raw asparagus and spinach. At times all I could afford was cup of soups or top ramen noodles. All this went on for a period of about two and a half months. I was only able to land one job in St Louis through Patriots Temp service. Which was a brief ten days. I witnessed so many people lost and homeless, unemployed and being corralled like catte through the state agencies. I witnessed the mentally ill drifting helpless in the streets. Even my own mother at age 70 walked off her job because the employer attempted to undermine my moms integrity. But all this is now in the past. All this is meaningful to my understandig of lfe in many areas that before I had no experience with. But I discovered solutions that worked for me and not against me. And in some cases I was even able to help a few people with some solution's that benifited them. I Ask for nothing in return other than to remember my name: Paris Taylor and I continued my path. Im now full time employed with a great company who produces the greatest batteries in the world: NorthStar Batteries. Here in SPRINGFIELD MO. I am proud to represent them. If anyone is looking for a great company to grow with Northstar is a great company to prospect. They are expanding and need more production and assemblely employees. The pay is weekly, 401k and other benifits. See the thing about me is: " I learned along time ago how to survive...but now I know how to thrive" "The mind IS the most greast tool we have but, its value is based on the use we make of it" Focus..refect and think deep.
