Redneck Bar & Grill

A little while back I performed an experiment (that was suggested by our Beer Buddy, Jean-Luc Picard).  I typed, "Ernie needs" into a Google search and looked at the results that came up.  If you click here you can read Tim’s and my findings.  On a whim I decided to try this again yesterday.  The following result came up several times, "Ernie needs to work as hard on his mind-set as on his swing".  When I read that line I knew that a higher power was trying to tell me something.  So I sacrificed some virgin mega-bytes to the god Google and then I meditated on my mind set.

I gave some thought as to what exactly my "swing" was (I presume it’s some sort of metaphor since I don’t normally do a lot of actual physical swinging.  So after some time (and a few Blue Beaver Beers) I determined that my "swing" must be the physical aspect of performing my job.  I do that very, very well and I do spend a lot of time making sure that I continue to do it well.

On the other hand, my "mind-set" while I am at work probably does need some more work.  The majority of my co-workers are lazy piss-ants.  They’re always screwing around wasting time and spending more time talking than working.  Needless to say they cause me a great deal of aggravation; and since I can’t drink Blue Beaver (or any alcohol) at work I have been at a total loss as for how to cope with the stress.  I even blame them for my not blogging everyday.

But the god Google has helped to point me in a different direction.  Clearly what I need to do while I’m at work is just visualize myself drinking a six-pack.  Once I get into that "mind-set" then I will be able to deal with the stress of having to work with slackers.  I suggest that everyone reading this should do what I did; ask the god Google what it is that you need in your life.  The answer may be surprisingly simple.
