I had to
face the music today, it was inevitable.
Last Friday I had shown up late for work. Shown up topless actually, topless as in I
had a sports bra on but no actual tank top.
My boss for the female-only club was away this weekend on a camping trip
so that bought me time for him to calm down and whatnot.
I showed up
for work today and as soon as I saw him I sat down beside him and said “So, are
you going to fire me? That’s not cool if
you want to but that wasn’t cool I slept in, I know”. He gave a little giggle, said that he wasn’t
going to fire me and then we chatted for a bit about the situation. I know it wasn’t good I showed up so late, am
well aware of that, but it’s not like I had intended to. Having run my own business, I definitely had
a different perspective on things compared to the usual employee. I know what it’s like to have invested all
your time, effort, money, and soul to your business and then struggle with
employees who don’t share even a remote small percentage of passion for your
company. Been there, done that. I’m not going to be one of those employees
who works at a job they hate and doesn’t try.
I’m here at this female-only gym to learn the ins and outs of it, not
only from a trainer’s point of view but also from an entrepreneur’s
perspective. I’m here to learn and as
far as I’m concerned the position I hold here is like hands-on training for my
Second Dream.
