GRATITUDE ATTITUDE?

THANK GOD FOR YOUR BLESSINGS

 

A prayer for stressed employees
Grant me the serenity to accept things I cannot change,

And the courage to change the things I cannot accept;

The wisdom to hide bodies of those that I had to kill today,

 Because they got on my nerves.

<>()<>

Help me to be careful of the toes I step on today,

As they may be connected to the feet I have to kiss tomorrow.

Help me to give 100% at work

12% on Monday 20% on Thursday
23% on Tuesday and 5% on Friday
40% on Wednesday

<>()<>

Help me to remember (when I am having a bad day at work and people are trying to wind me up), 

It takes 42 muscles to frown, 28 to smile 

And only 4 to extend my arm and smack someone in the mouth.
