I hold my Styrofoam cup of coffee and feel a pang at the pit of my stomach as I realize I'm caught in this animal kingdom.

Acquring resources?
I had just read a story on your company's former owner, I think, and a "transition" to new leadership. You're in my thoughts.
Things are downright wacky where I work also, with a new boss and an entirely new staff that he brought with him. I'm not sure what the future holds either. My Styrofoam cup's getting a good squeeze too.

Hey,
Thanks for the prayers.
I do not refer to my company but I can see where it can be perceived that way based on my very abstract, (intentionally) vague statements.
I've been working off-site for a few months. An eye-opening experience, which brought about this most recent entry.
Suddenly, I find that I am lucky that my place of employment is relatively healthy. Morale is higher than most places given the current economic condition, and people at least attempt to have an attitude of teamwork and support. It's not always perfect, but, hell, after what I've seen, I can't ever complain again.
At one point, I'll have to write out all my ideas about this somewhere. I have lots of questions.
Thanks for checking in, Ryan. Sorry I haven't been keeping up w/ all that's being posted on HawaiiStories.com. I haven't on-line very consistently.
Take care,
Ruth
