For the past 10 years that we have been running our family business we have never been a part of the community affairs until one day I decided that it is time to make some change. The local government of our town holds an annual business fare that includes an awarding of business establishments on the areas based on income, cleanliness, friendliness and community involvement. And so I thought, why not become a part of it?
Odd as it may seem my goal was to win on the cleanliness and I am the kind of person who never accepts defeat. From the day I signed up I made sure my business is well taken cared for in terms of cleanliness. My first step was to find a reliable supplier for cleaning materials and luckily I found one that is not going to cost me much but will assure me the trophy. I got a deal that provides janitorial supplies directly to customers at a wholesale price. It also assures safety supplies.
Fortunate as I have always been I got the award. Not only that I made real good changes on my business but at the same time I stood as a living example. Thanks to my cleaning supplies provider.

I received a catalog in the mail last month that had all sizes of footed pajamas in it. I could not believe the variety that they had, or the fact that they made men’s size 2XL. I laughed at the thought of my father, who wears that same size wearing footed pajamas of any kind. It would make a great gag gift though, so I put that thought at the back of my head and kept looking though the catalog.
Then, I came to the boys pajamas section and found that this company makes a pair of pajamas with every NFL team on them, that is out there. My boys love different football teams and neither of the teams is close to us, so they usually do not carry that team in our local stores.
I went ahead and placed an order for two different teams of boys pajamas and thought that I would just put them away until their birthdays came around in about six weeks. I also went ahead and ordered a funny pair of 2XL reindeer covered footed pajamas for my dad to give to him at Christmas time. The funny thing is, that he will probably wear them with pride all around the house.

I thought that our company was completely stocked up on everything we needed to get through the next few months. I have to have surgery, and will not be around to make sure that everything gets ordered and done so I thought that I had placed triple orders last month. That does not seem to be the case though, since we do not have enough cleaning products or safety supplies.
My maintenance man came into my office this morning to ask me what he should do about not having the right equipment and cleaning products for the rest of the month. I was shocked and told him that I thought he should have more than enough. In fact, I told him all about my extra ordering. He took me to the supply closet and showed me that it was almost empty. I had to call and find out what happened to my order and the woman told me that I had checked the box on the order form, to suspend orders for three months.
I do not know how I did that, but then I got nervous and started checking around the office. I guess that I must have checked the same box for the safety supplies, since there were only a few bandages and some gauze in the first aid kit. It should have been completely full with extra supplies next to it but it was not. I sent rush orders for everything that was needed to insure it was delivered before I left this week.

My office supplies salesman that comes in every week to fill up our office supply closet came in early to fill our order. I guess that he won some big contest that his company was running and he was taking off for a week long cruise to the Bahamas. All of my employees heard him say this and were all jealous.
He told them that he had worked for a different office supply store before coming to work for his current company and when he learned about all the promotional things they give to their top salesman, he knew that he just had to go and work for them. I told him to let my employees know how many hours he had to work to win the cruise and he told them that for the past year, he has worked seven days a week and that usually added up to about seventy to eighty hours per week.
For some reason, after hearing that, my employees were not as jealous of the office supply store salesman anymore. I told them that I could afford to send them all on a cruise if they wanted to work seven days a week for the next year, but no one wanted to take me up on that deal. We all told our office supplies salesman to have a good time and we would see him when he got back.
