\t\t\t\t\"Whiskey\"<\/a>It is officially here.\u00a0 Summer.\u00a0 It got here a heck of a lot quicker than I thought it would.\u00a0 Wasn’t it just Christmas?\u00a0 This year is nearly half over.\u00a0 How in the world did that happen?!\u00a0 Having a couple of young kids, summer means many things, but one this it means is that my job got a hell of a lot harder.<\/p>\n

Recruiting is easy.\u00a0 Being a human being, a father, and husband- now that is\u00a0 tough job.\u00a0 It is my favorite job in the world, but it is NOT easy!\u00a0 It is these summer months that most of us look forward to every year.\u00a0 We all try to plan our summer vacations and our getaways.\u00a0 Some of us are planning big vacations like Disney World or Cancun while others are just as content going to a nearby city for a couple of days.<\/p>\n

Ahh, the summer.\u00a0 There are some nights that are blissful while others I really look forward to my whiskey drink at the end of the evening.\u00a0 I personally love Blanton’s or Basil Hayden’s, but if I have to have a Jack Daniel’s that will do too.\u00a0 Can you relate?\u00a0 Oh sure you can!<\/p>\n

I know those of you reading this are all at different places in your lives.\u00a0 Some of you may be right out of college and just started your first job.\u00a0 Some of you are single.\u00a0 Some of you are married.\u00a0 Some of you have kids that are in school that are in Kindergarten-12th grade.\u00a0 Some of you may have kids in college or beyond. Some of you will never have kids.<\/p>\n

Summer months for the majority of people are great months to re-charge your batteries and spend time with your loved ones.\u00a0 As a recruiter, I love hearing these stories.\u00a0 It is these stories that define who we are as people, NOT WORK.\"kids\"<\/a><\/p>\n

I ask people all of the time “How have you been” or “What have you been up to?” and the response I loathe is, “I’ve been working”.\u00a0 Seriously?\u00a0 That is all you have?\u00a0 When someone asks me about Bulls Eye Recruiting, I try to change the subject quickly because there is so much more to what is going on in our lives at the Thomson household.\u00a0 Let’s talk about the things that matter in life.\u00a0 When I’m long gone, I hope my grave doesn’t say Founder & President of Bulls Eye Recruiting.\u00a0 Who really gives a crap?<\/p>\n

Yes, I recruit.\u00a0 Yes, I run a business.\u00a0 Yes, I will talk to you about Bulls Eye Recruiting…but only for a minute.<\/p>\n

In today’s world work is so much about “culture”.\u00a0 Work is what we do, but it SHOULD NOT DEFINE US.\u00a0 You see, after 5, I take the kids to the pool, sit down to have dinner with my family & go in the front yard with my lawn chair and watch my kids play.\u00a0 You may hit the tennis ball or the gym.\u00a0 There is something that you are passionate about that you do after the work day ends.<\/p>\n

It is the time away from work where our real job begins.\u00a0 If your life isn’t that way, you should reset your priorities.\u00a0 Our real jobs (the ones that don’t earn a paycheck) are hard.\u00a0 Damn hard!\u00a0 For me, it is exciting.\u00a0 It is often times overwhelming.\u00a0 It IS THE BEST JOB I HAVE!<\/p>\n

It gets loud at our house.\u00a0 We are always on the “go” and doing something.\u00a0 ALWAYS.\u00a0 Maybe that is just our family, but I love it!<\/p>\n

I think we are ready for the summer.\u00a0 I THINK!\u00a0 Our household is about to get crazy.\u00a0 When we talk, I want to hear about your job, but I also want to learn about WHO YOU ARE as an individual.\u00a0 Chances are that you will want to have a whiskey with me.<\/p>\n
