Commute Radio
While driving my usual maddening commute home, I found inspiration in the NPR story about the thrash supervisor in the French Quarter in New Orleans. He was being asked about the amount of thrash he had to clean up after the superbowl victory parties the night before. He said there was a lot, but he'd take the win and the thrash. It was poetic the way he described the satisfaction he feels when he starts his day 4:30 in the morning with all that mess and vomit stench, then all that gone by 5:30. By ten o'clock, people on the streets were thanking him for job well done. He sounded happy, satisfied and inspired. How many people can honestly feel like that about their job? Really, it is all in the attitude. I heart this guy. Here is the story.
