In this moment, I pause to remember the goodness that my job brings to my life experience. It’s good to be employed, and it’s great to perform a service that is so unique in the world and get paid for it. What a talent! What a gift! What a profession!
I am a part of a fabulous team that makes things happen – office staff, fellow reporters, attorneys, judges, bailiffs, clerks, proofreaders, scopists, attendants, associations, unions, even the janitorial services. The list is endless!
Sometimes it may seem as though somebody on the team is not recognizing who I am or appreciative of what I do, but my feelings immediately shift when I realize other people's actions are never about who I am or what I do. People are having good days and bad days, and their actions are based on what they experience in their own lives whether they are aware of it or not.
So I just keep those fingers flowing and keep my mind on doing a great job. I appreciate myself, and I value what I do. Court reporting, what an awesome adventure!
