No keys fell during the snapping of this photo

This is good smelling guy. Don't have the nerve to ask what cologne this dude is wearing lol. But I am kinda reading over his shoulder now, checking out what's going on in the world...

Work has been kind of challenging lately. Emotionally taxing too. Well, it kind of always is to be honest.

Before I found this career path, I used to fill the empty void I felt by buying myself stupid shit to make me feel better. It's funny how my priorities and the ways I reward myself are different now that I've found something that is truly fulfilling.

Some days are tough. And my job can be - I'll be honest - shitty. It is hard enough wading in the pool of your own emotions, right? Imagine being a "lifeguard" for others in that regard.

Not too long ago, someone thanked me for making their life better. It wasn't the thank you that was the reward for me. It was being able to help them help themselves.

And that makes tough days like yesterday...totally worth it.
You do awesome things!! And I love that you took a pic over this guy's shoulder. I kinda want to smell him....lol

@islandk8 aww thanks Katie! Lol I'm, like, covering my hands over my phone so he can't see this if he happens to look over. He probably thinks I'm so weird haha.

Awesome photo and story line combined with your "Poopy" photo and story about the "good-smelling guy" ! Your photos and stories bring together the adventures and tribulations of work, life, humor and fun!
The photo and stories about the "good-smelling guy" deserve a fav
September 25th, 2013  
@tosee thanks for the fav, Tom! Your thoughtful comments made me smile :)

It's really great that your work is rewarding for you. Most people don't have that. This "stalker" photo of "good-smelling guy" is interesting to me. I like getting a glimpse through other peoples' eyes/thoughts.

@jbc2013 maybe I should have a series of 'voyeur' photos. On second thought, that could become all sorts of wrong lol.
September 26th, 2013  
hey Ms T what up? cool shot like the sneaky vibe.
September 26th, 2013  
He must have forgiven you for the stench ;) You can find inspiration, if you just keep your mind open...

Ok, so now you're stalking him !?! Cool shot ! ..and some interesting thoughts as always.
September 26th, 2013  
Hey, nice sneak pic. I can relate. From this glimps, this guy ain't all that! Well, at least your not knee knocking and/or thingh rubbing. The customary 3 inch rule is in effect which is nice to see.
September 26th, 2013  
@adamj that knee knocking came later. Actually that never happened. We observed transportation etiquette with aplomb.

@michaelelliott @baznman @streats lol yes I'm sneakily stalking him! No not really. And perhaps he has forgiven me about the dog poop situation lol.
September 26th, 2013  
@fauxtography365 You are so dignified. If I were sitting next to you I might bend the rules just a tad.
September 26th, 2013  
@adamj even if I smelled like dog poop? I smell like Chanel today btw.
September 26th, 2013  
@fauxtography365 Wellllllll, I prefer the Coco Chanel.

@fauxtography365 Question is ..did he say hello today ?
September 26th, 2013  
@streats noooo! No hello. Lol.
