Recently there have been a
number of news articles that specify the importance of wellness in
the workplace. This is not necessarily news. It has been 26 years
since workplace violence occurred at a post office in Edmond, OK and
though records are difficult to find there were many incidents prior
to that. Sadly, this problem has overflowed to another generation.
This morning we arrived at
work after a weekend of trying to put a number of thoughts into
proper perspective. It was a matter of being thankful to be able to
return to our routine and place ourselves in what we considered a
normal day.
Of course, our conversation
centered around Newtown, CT and it involved more questions than
answers. We all agree that a solution needs to be found to keep our
society from living in fear. Our thoughts? The children can be our
teachers. Ask questions and listen attentively to the answers. It
lets people know that you care.
