Being left out is never any fun. Being left out in the rain can really be miserable.I know when I am waiting for service I hate being left in the dark. Recently I needed service on a new appliance and waiting for the part (which went quickly) and waiting for the appliance service center to instal

One of my first employers spelled out to me what it means to ASSUME. Mr. Lee Becker, Owner of Mr. Music Man, was a good teacher (but I was 17 and knew it all) and I wish I would have taken more time to listen and learn from him.I doubt anyone reading this doesn't know the lesson Lee taught me way
