Integrity

It seems I'm taking time about once a week to keep this little operation of a journal going...still, in a perfect world it would be more often. Anyways, let's see what's been on my mind.

Integrity. Or more specifically, integrity for the average employee. I relate integrity with honesty, and with self honesty. What are the chances that an employee has of being completely honest with themselves in their job. Society and employers want all employees to act with integrity. Now let me say that again...ACT with INTEGRITY. When an act is nothing more than something fake, because after all why would we need to act if it was natural behavior to us. So really what they are saying is that they want us to to use fake emotions (act) to be honest with ourselves (integrity). Wow! that does not make sense at all. To lay it out on the table, that does not happen. No employee will ever be so suited to a position where they can be completely honest with themselves all the time. Employees do not tell customers what is on their mind or their true feelings. If we did, we would be jobless*. (*There is no line, but certain jobs require more acting than others) Nevertheless, my current position is calling for more acting than I am will to comprise my integrity for. I think there is only one thing left to do......start my own ball showing game. (note: if last sentence does not make sense, rent the DVD "Waiting")
