Don’t act the part of the fool today. Double check the ‘facts’ and if you don’t understand something make sure you ask. Others are watching how you handle unexpected situations. Some may not be putting you to the test, as much as they are setting you up to fail. Be skeptical and cautious today.
Additional Insight:
A good dose of skepticism is always a good thing. Read between the lines today and ponder the intent behind the message. Are they trying to sell you something? Are they trying to make their claims seem more valid or legitimate by siting certain phrases, such as “study” or “research”? Make sure you double check the facts, look for the source of the information and determine if it’s truly unbiased. There are still games going on around you that may put you in the center of controversy. Be calm, patient and think through your response BEFORE you make it! Today is not the day to ‘wing it’.

This is so true for me today! My job recently hired a guy for part time management (I’m full time just under store manager). From all that he has said, he is totally unqualified for the job and has already caused major upset with our cashiers even though he is still only in training. Guess who I work with tonight??? 🙂 I’m going to put on my happy face but keep caution in my pocket with me.
