Welcome To Case's Column

Let me say a big welcome to all of you for joining me here. I'm going to call these blog meetings Case's Column. I wanted to use "Corner", but that was already taken. Since 2008, it's been a real privilege to come on here and share some of my life with you, and it's a big world where we live.

In these blogs, I'll just speak whatever is on my mind, but we will be playing within the rules here. I may pick a particular topic, point out an event, or shoot the breeze. I'm a little bit of an essayist at times, so I'll just speak what's on my mind, and I might tell a story or two. Or, I might spew out an opinion or three. There will be some serious moments, some tender, some poignant, but there will also be those moments that you'll just bust out laughing. But, hopefully, everything will be in good fun here. And, of course, there's a place below for your comments and thoughts as we go along here. So feel free to join me for the ride -- I sure as heck hope I'm doing this right and not making any mistakes.

Thanks for taking your time in reading Case's Column. Hopefully, you'll enjoy being entertained by it as much as I've enjoyed putting these writings together. And thanks for the time you spend in City-Data.com, where it's great to be alive!

Regards,

Overtime Becoming More Of The Norm At Work

Posted 04-03-2017 at 07:14 PM by case44 (Welcome To Case's Column)

I'll have to put off some of my leisure time during my work days, at least for now. Matter of fact, I'm supposed to be getting ready for bed, but, no, I'm on C-D typing yet another blog post, and it's not even about nothing.

My new job isn't so new anymore, but I'm loving it. I'm getting to do a few things that I could not do in my old department. Management has been encouraging overtime, so guess what this writer has had to do in recent weeks? Hey,...

A Co-Worker's Generosity Leads To A Craving Of Sorts

Posted 03-31-2017 at 02:28 AM by case44 (Welcome To Case's Column)

A few days ago at work, one of my co-workers showed her generosity with something she just learned how to make. And she scored a hit, too, when she brought the display to the business environment.

In my workplace the other day were some delicious corn muffins. This co-worker just happens to be from another country, but she's still acclimating to the U.S. quite well. All those corn muffins needed were, oh,......., some black-eyed peas, or some pinto beans,...

Losing Points At A Hotel Chain? I Guess It's Possible

Posted 03-20-2017 at 10:05 AM by case44 (Welcome To Case's Column)

Many times, when I make hotel reservations, I can be sort of a loyalist when it comes to chains. But there are times when, if I can't get a good deal with one chain or I look on the internet and the facility at that particular area is not to my liking, then I usually go to another chain to find the best deal.

I like Best Western, as that franchise is getting better with their multiple different concepts of interior and exterior designs for its hotels. Every now and...
