Labor Day Weekend

When an organization is successful, credit is always given to the leadership, but the contributions and sacrifices of the middle and lower levels of the echelon are seldom acknowledged. These days, loyalty and work ethics are not valued or cherished. Loyalty is often mistaken by employers as an employee's inability to find alternative employment or further advancement in one's career. Times have changed and values have changed. The average turn-over rate in our office is 2 years.

This month marks my 10th year with our office and this Labor Day weekend calls for reflection and review of the past 10 years. This is a mile stone and a new path must be charted for the next 5 to 10 years.

To those hardworking employees that their sacrifices have never been recognized, this Labor Day is a celebration of your contributions.
