We’re back to Grandma’s bulletin board for some more eternal wisdom. On August 27th, I returned to Miami University in Oxford, Ohio to a second long term temporary position working in the COVID testing site. (See my post titled “Connections/The World Really is That Small” for my story about working there.
If ever this tiny piece from Grandma’s bulletin board were appropriate, I think at the work place is certainly one of the top places this could be posted. Along with on every bathroom mirror and every refrigerator door!
Golden Rules for Living
- If you open it, close it.
- If you turn it on, turn it off.
- If you unlock it, lock it up.
- If you break it, admit it.
- If you can’t fix it, call in someone who can.
- If you borrow it, return it.
- If you value it, take care of it.
- If you make a mess, clean it up.
- If you move it, put it back.
- If if belongs to someone else and you want to use it, get permission.
- If you don’t know how to operate it, leave it alone.
- If it’s none of your business, don’t ask questions.
