“And what would you like to drink?” the perky server asks.

“I’ll have a Diet Coke, no ice, and a slice of lime, please.”

About five minutes later, our drinks arrive.

Mine has ice, and there’s no lime.

I may as well take a sip anyway; I’m parched.

Hey, that’s too sweet to be a Diet Coke. I’ll bet she gave me the regular brew.

It’s amazing that a restaurant’s server can make three errors when handling a simple soft drink order, but it happens to me all the time.

Before you blame me for my misfortunes, thinking I mumble or something, I must tell you I’ve tried everything to help servers to get it right, from speaking S-L-O-W-L-Y to repeating the phrase before they scurry away:

“Again, that’s a Diet Coke, no ice, and a slice of lime, please.”

Still, more than 50% of the time I get either ice or a bright yellow LEMON, instead of the lime.

Uncertainty - The Doorway To Possibilities
“The only thing that makes life possible is permanent, intolerable uncertainty; not knowing what comes next.” – Ursula K. LeGuin “Uncertainty and mystery are energies of life. Don't let them scare you unduly, for they keep boredom at bay and spark creativity.”- R.I. FitzhenryAbout 8 years ago my life underwent a

What are the results of these errors?

(1) I send back the defective cola. This wastes everybody’s time, preventing the server from promptly assisting everyone at her station.

(2) I don’t have time for dessert, nor the desire to reinforce a server whose skills are lacking, by ordering more.

(3) The server’s tips suffer. My rule of thumb is it’s a buck-an-error, if I’m having dinner. Some waiters have lost five-spots this way. They earn less, quit more, restaurants have to recruit and train replacements, and more productivity and money are lost.

(4) They don’t just blow it with Cokes. When my medium-rare steak is delivered, burnt, it goes back, and that is a pure loss for the establishment. P

This is the time that you should you realize a couple of facts as to where could you have possibly gone wrong and what should you do in order to put your career back on the fast track.

Although the job market has improved over the past year, many employers are still reluctant to make a long term commitment to growing their employee rolls until it is clear that a solid economic expansion is underway. Their solution is often to rely on temporary agencies to provide needed manpower without any precipitous long term commitment. It is estimated, by a well-regarded labor research group, that fully 25% of the jobs created during the past year have been temporary positions!
