On Monday, I had a dream where I was back at CNN working in front of a computer.
I was working with my friend Eric in this computer room working with some 1990's style Macs. We weren't editing anything like we usually did. We were working either on a computer program or on an essay together.
While we were at work, Eric was trying to teach me some valuable work/life lessons along the way. He was trying to teach me about having a good attitude at work. I swear I've heard this story and lesson in real life a few times before.
He basically told me that I need to have a good attitude, don't piss anybody off, don't rub people the wrong way, and be happy to be at work where you are.
In the dream, I remember being happy about being back at work back at CNN. I remember finding my happy place in that computer room. Maybe I was just happy to be in a computer room anywhere I could find one.
In real life: I haven't worked for CNN since I was laid off there in November 2011. I've adjusted to working at CBS46 here in Atlanta pretty well as far as I can tell.
I can't tell where the future will take me, but I will pray to the Lord to help him tell me where he needs me to be.
For the record, I enjoy working with my Ex-CNN colleagues here at CBS46.
