Disgruntled Employees
Dear Cannes not France,
My name is Limmie, and I am a disgruntled employee.
How did I become a disgruntled employee? My needs were not being met, that's how!!!
I have a rather strong desire to work in a safe environment. Meaning, I don't enjoy being manhandled by my fellow employees, I don't enjoy being beaten up by the clients and lastly, I don't like being bullied or harassed.
I've read several articles on how to deal with disgruntled employees and most articles start out with this description of an attempt to create an all-too-blissful organisation, only to have that one unhappy character be the rotten apple.
Then there are the articles that highlight the warning signs of a disgruntled employee. The grumbling, the absences, the need for counseling.
Well, I rarely grumbled, I was rarely absent, I sought the council of my supervisors and was ignored. What caused my unhappiness is exactly what was mentioned earlier. I was being abused!
I was fired for the way I handled the belligerent jerk-off that physically manhandled me months prior to this last incident.
I was disgruntled and (for lack of better terms) went postal on the day I was fired.
The supervisor was cussed out. I slammed the door and yelled "F--- you" loud enough to set off a few alarms. I think the U.S Marshal was called to follow me afterward. I went home a.s.a.p by the way. Later that day, I noticed a large police presence in my neighborhood, I heard the choppers and I was "flashy thingy-ed" while ridding up the street.
I am not the person that sought to destroy the culture, but was the one who was at the hands of a few more overly aggressive yet popular individuals that were allowed to keep their jobs anyway...
It is always in the best interest of any company that wishes to stay in business to address the harsh work environment to avoid any amount of criminal activity. Every so often do we hear of shootouts in the work place, or on college campuses. When this happens, it is almost too late.
We love the loud mouths. We adore the complainers. They come to work on time and do a great job. They pick on the dweeb by the water cooler and everyone loves them to no end. They still get to keep their job. Why?
I think that it is worth the time to introduce a no tolerance policy in the work place that highlights and enforces company regulation against bullying, harassment, espionage and complaining. It could save the blood pressure and sanity of many.
Sincerely,
L Boyd

Food Chain Position no. 1 Saving money
Dear Readers,
Oh the suspence!! The thrill of it all! The horror!! The anticipation of...the next move!!
The pressure on my lungs and diaphragm almost bring tears to my eyes and tremors to my limbs!! If I could go to church right now, I would make a fool out of myself for Jesus!!
I will be off the street before Thanksgiving... and I still have a job!!!
Glory hallelujah!!
The furniture wish list has been created.
This story has been 3 years in the making!
Here is my money saving tips for the spoiled and slightly traumatized brat!
1. Eat light 2. Work over time 3. Don't live above your means 3. Keep the black jack 21 table on your mind
Saving money is hard but do-able.
Recycling, creatively using life hacks, and coupon clipping are clever ways to save on products.
Also speding the dime on what will last in comparison to buying for a cheaper deal for convenient sake makes a huge difference. For example
$10 dollar shoes from Wally World vs $88 dollar name brand shoes.
The 10 buck shoes have a shorter expiration date and they lack the minor details that will keep the body supported properly.
The 88 buck shoes may give you greater benefits that effect the whole body.
New balance is not my shoe. Nike's are. The Addidas and Brooks brands will soon be tested.
I work on my feet and I dont have a vehicle as of yet so shoes are top priority next to food and water.
Gotta stay at the top of the food chain!
Update.
Sincerely,
Limmie Boyd

Briefing: Pep Talk
Dear Readers,
If there were ever a time to do what obviously would solve my current living condition and finacial situation it would be now!!!! Right?
The struggle is so real people! I am surrounded by hopelessness. This state of mental and emotional being is contageous.
Its like being surrounded by the enemy on the battle field...
The enemy called poverty
Impulse control
Sickness and disease
Depression
Fear of all kinds
The threats of danger ; violence, stalking, fraud.
Lustful vices like substance abuse ; drugs, alcohol and food. All of which can render anyone to state of hoplessness and complete defeat.
Are all surrouning me right now. However, the battle is already won so aslong as I use my weapons of prayer, goal setting and discipline, any desired result can be acheived.
This month certain goals can and will be attained. 1. Saving money. Which means that I MUST DO ALL things required to save a certain dollar amount this month.
2. Maintaining my health emotionally and physically inorder to give good performance to counteract the lack of acheivement experienced over the past 2 months.
I must do this no matter how I feel, or how much I fall.
A wise old owl shared with me a great word of wisdom once. He said "Life is like a battle feild. Just play the war right!"
I let you know how things go in a few days!
SINCERELY,
Personnel

Open Hiring Events
Dear Readers,
I have .. a .. Job!!! *Hyperventilating*
Omg, where is my paper bag??!
I've been putting off the creation of a new blog entry so as not to jinx myself for fear of loosing the position. One never should speak too soon!
The journey from litterally sleeping on the street to going back into the shelter and finding gainful employment has really been an eyelash pulling experience, that I had to relearn how to relax before I have another heart attack! Whew! (My lungs almost collapsed)
How did I get the position you ask?
I applied two years ago and have been receiving emails blasts for hiring events for a year.
I finally answered. Showed up and applied. I was hired after the interview.
Why did you not apply two years ago?
My major is of a completely different subject. Unfortunately, employer's have the tendency of backing potential hires into a corner. Some believe that "birds of a feather should flock together"! So, if I worked as a care giver for 9 years, then I should continue to do so...
I'm against that form of population control and society building.
What is your lifes work or background?
Some of my background is in law enforcement (military) ...I am currently a security guard by the way.
The rest of my background is in Healthcare, Administration and Public Servanthood/ Emergency Preparation services.
I was hoping to go back into the Healthcare field, but it is not been an easy door to pry open. So I had to do what I had to do to get what needs to be done.
Before accepting the position with my current employer, I attended the "Back To Work" workshop program that is sponsored by SC JOB WORKS. The states Unemployment Agency.
This type of program is another good way of making individuals marketable and employable.
I did not attend the whole four weeks because I accepted my new position, but even by showing up for the week did me a lot of good. It was like saying yes to Jesus for the first time and life all of a sudden starts to work with me.
So far, so good. Every week is a new gift after suffering through this traumatic event of becoming a homeless person. Loosing everything is hard. We greive, and then we move on!
Next entry: Money Management, or maybe Promotions and how to attain them while working your way off of the street.
Sincerely,
Limmie Boyd

Bum On The Street I Am!!!
Dear Councilor,
Five days on the street and I've only been shot once -- with a lotus bomb via police cruiser drive by. I've avoided the neighborhood street arsonists who seek the death penalty "their way" to keep the hood safe.
I've had to both warn a drunk gentleman of my arms length personal space, while on another day having to endure the rants of an angry finger waving woman. Not to mention the drunk gentleman who decided to use my duffel bag as a pillow... Scary stuff!
Hopefully the shelter will once again open it's doors to me. The need to find gainful employment is still number one priority and may become a little easier to find something while living indoors.
I have felt every emotion one could feel with minimal reaction, which could he a good thing. Happy to be sleeping under the stars, scared of potential danger, and apprehensive about my future.
I suppose my greatest fear at the moment is that I would be cast-out of society and labeled as unemployable because of my current life status. The other thing that I also fear are the entrapment artists that use indeed.com and other sites to lure people into facing arrest charges we've faced years ago, once hired to work for their company.
There are many super heroes out there!
On the same token, I am excited about the opportunity to rebuild on the life that God gave me. I am also thankful for the concrete slab and stair case that served as protective shelter for a few nights.
Last night a local allowed myself and another homeless person to sleep in his truck. The other night my boyfriend who gave me some booty and dumped me after wards, paid for a night in a run down motel.
He thinks he is better than me because he gets to be a squatter and no one says anything to him.
Guess that means that I am available Ladies and Gentlemen!
This is my update story and I am sticking to it!
Next week I will venture into the subject of On the job training programs. Perhaps also, I will have made some progress in finding employment.
Unfortunately I lost my camera for those who know me, I will just for now on use the camera in my cell phone.
Sincerely,
Limmie
PS. In the pictures above shows where I spent a few night in front of a "No Loitering sign.

Hands Off/ Let God Handle it!
Dear Readers,
The shelter space has run out and I am now being forced back onto the street.
Last time this happened a wonderful lovely dove of a person told me to let God do what he needs to do in you before you get another job... mind you, because this person is being quoted in red, that does not mean that was a word from the Lord!!
My response.. UM NOOO!!
Who is the world has time to wait on God to fix what is broken in me while I sleep on the side walk??
That is a lifetime full of work. One day at a time. We have things to do like getting off of the street and back into the land of the never ending light bill!
Look..this is going to be me by Monday. He'll fix what is broke/whatever is broken in me *song*
This is not that time to fix the attitude problem or the depression or the other gazillion imperfections that I know without a shadow of a doubt is NOT the reason why I am homeless.
The only way to handle things at this moment is to keep my mind on God. That is all. I ask and I am waiting to receive.
Meanwhile, I am looking for a job that will not inspire its employees to shoot me again for being one of those nasty homeless people.
Also if the police would kindly not flex at me like i'm supposed to be afraid of them. Yes, I smuggled immigrants over the border; Yes I smuggled silverware and crashed planes while in the military ... OK I served my time paid my fines, life is quiet. Lemme alone!
I am telling jokes and am fighting tears because i'm really am tired of being shot and electrocuted.
God is a mighty deliverer, he is mighty to save. (repeat 20 times)
I will let you know how things go on Tuesday.
Sincerely,
Limmie
I am officially taking my hands off of things. The battle is real and I can't win this on my own!

Dear Seekers of Life,
Do you see this picture???
This is what my life looks like as of now. This highly muscular and violent man is backing this powerful woman against the wall... I hope she wins!!
Or perhaps the woman is egging him on and he has to show her his muscle to prove that hes not as slow as she thinks he is....I hope he wins!!
Entrapment.
I am ready to fight in the worst way right now!!!
All I can say is buyer beware!
Sincerely,
Limmie
