Monday Morning Staff Meeting 🐾

Me: Alright Diesel, Kip—let’s get focused. New week, new goals. We’re aiming for productivity, structure, and maybe a little less chaos.

Diesel: checked in early, already boosting morale, accidentally ate part of the agenda but spirit is strong

Kip: “Before we proceed… I have concerns.” 🐱

Me: …about what?

Kip: “Leadership. Specifically yours. My bowl was not filled to my standards yesterday.”

Diesel: just happy to be here, volunteering for everything, understands nothing

Me: Okay, moving forward—teamwork makes the dream work.

Kip: “My dream is naps, snacks, and evaluating your performance from a higher surface.”

Diesel: applies for Employee of the Month again by simply existing

Me: Final thoughts?

Kip: “Yes. Lower your expectations of me, raise your standards of service.”

Diesel: wagging like we just solved world peace

And just like that…
I’m no longer the boss. I’m just middle management with snacks. 😌
