Miguel’s Voice

Did you know…

A clean and safe workplace can help fund your program?

If just one person gets hurt at work, it can cost the agency thousands in workers compensation premiums,

And those premiums reduce the funding available for our programs.

Always report injuries to your supervisor and HR immediately. The quicker we help, the better the result and the lower the cost.

And always report work hazards and facility issues to me by putting it on The List.

Now you know.

-Miguel

The solo marathon

The usual marathons, the popular ones, are done in a group.

They have a start time.

A finish line.

A way to qualify.

A route.

A crowd.

And a date announced a year in advance.

Mostly, they have excitement, energy and peer pressure.

The other kind of marathon is one that anyone can run, any day of the year. Put on your sneakers, run out the door and come back 26 miles later. These are rare.

It’s worth noting that much of what we do in creating a project, launching a program or developing a career is a lot closer to the second kind of marathon.

No wonder it’s so difficult.
