Hard Work Does Pay Off!

             No matter how down and depressed I am, I always find a way through things and the hard work I put into it does pay off in the end. I mean I have a lot on my plate right now getting the podcasts and these blogs done, hard work does pay and the hard long hours we put into the content also is another major thing that certain has paid off but the late hours isn't all that great whatsoever but most of the time I am awake at that time of the night usually. 

             I have really bounced back from what I was going through with personal things that have gone through I stopped for a while and now I have been working non stop and it has truly paid off. I may not have all the blogs done for when I am away from the studio out of town so it is important to get done and also the podcasts plus this weekends but I am going to work on the next Power Rangers Podcast and it is in the back of my mind and I probably will bring it with me on vacation if I do not finish the seasons to watch but I should be done next week to start typing it up. Anyways that is the post for today and you can see hard work pays off and I will talk to you all tomorrow!

All Caught Up On Work!

          So over the weekend, I got into working on the stuff that I didn't finish since being sick. I am pretty much at this moment up to date and ready for the next phase. But I finished editing the podcasts for yesterday and Thursday so this gives me some time so I can work on the other podcast for the week so I can actually work on the next collab and get a little ahead of schedule so I can record in April again so Larry and I can get back on track.  Also I finished interview questions for future interviews so it is ready. 

             Power Rangers Ninja Steel seasons are the upmost importance that we do finish the podcast on time and on schedule. That is why I am clearing anything else that is on my timetable right now. So I am really proud of myself and excited for the next step. Hey I am quite impressed that I actually got it finished and I managed to get through everything I was working on done. However that is the post for today, as always I will talk to you all tomorrow.

It's Been Hard To Focus Lately!

                 I have put up with so much verbal abuse and accusations, I am just had it and I needed to just walk away from the group for a while. This is spanning the last almost 3 years in general. So I am taking a Leave of Absence from the group but this don't mean I will not be active on Twitter or Instagram cause I will be. Jim, ChrisBOnTheWeb Community Manager will be assuming the leader role in the Facebook Community while I am off from the community but like I said I will be remaining active on Twitter moving forward. It's not just the verbal abuse and accusations it is about me getting Samurai done and I have a massive plan to catch right up and get another episode recorded in a week. 

                 It has been hard to focus on it and if I take a bit of a break from some of the platforms this may help. I doubt it as I also have to play the Social Media aspect of it all so I am still active on two of the 3 at the most. This podcast is all up to me finishing up notes and getting it done and my team has stepped up to the plate lately-- Meaning Jim is practically running the FB Community Group, Amy is helping me here and there with editing Entertainment Man Podcast and her own which is only weekly which her and I been back and forth about the post Survivor Season and we have something planned but more is coming soon hopefully soon.  But with this, I hope this is going to take some pressure off of me when it comes to actually. The break was so short lived cause my Community Manager had a meltdown on me so now I am back on     Facebook, back to being stressed out 24-7 once again. However that is today's post, hope you guys enjoyed this and I will talk to you all tomorrow.

Struggling To Figure Out When I Want To Return Or Trying To Get Work Done..

            I was suppose to be back in the studio Friday to get the Collaboration Podcast done and I realize that the collab has to be finished up if we are indeed to actually record which I will be announcing some of that come New Years.  However I need to get back into the saddle and if I can today I will be in some O/T (Overtime) today and get some of it done but we will see how I feel and what is on tap as I am honestly not sure what is happening today and all I know is I have to get the bus pass for the month of January which I totally forgotten about yesterday but yet again I slept in very, very late and in bed very, very early last night and up early to try and get some things done. I need to stay on schedule if I can but I haven't. I've been re-addicted to Minecraft again and built a new community on there with my niece and nephew but I need to realize I can play with them when their here and I haven't done much and been playing games lately. However a break for me is good thing as I have been going non stop this year and I think a break is good, not too long but a small break here and there. You know me I have to be doing something with my time and sitting around going nothing, I am not one to be sitting around not doing anything and by the time you see this I probably ended up having a bunch of them done and ready to go over the next couple of days.


             However today is going to be definitely a test for me to see if I can start working on things and I think I will definitely be getting things done for CBOTW today. I need to just stop diddly daddling around playing video games and just get back to the task at hand. Honestly the work will not get finished on it's own and takes a lot of man power and man hours to get the notes done especially on a one 44 - 45 episode season and a 40 episode season so that is like 84 - 85 episodes to watch and a lot of hours of watching and trust me it is worth it in the end. The actual end goal is to try and be done the remainder of the seasons between January and end of August 2020 so all we really have to do moving forward is record and trust me I will be ahead for 2021 too, I just want to get ahead a little bit and what the heck am I saying?! I wanna get way ahead so non of this garbage of "oh I am not ready to record yet, Larry crap" happens again. Too much has happened in the last almost 3 months now where things kept being delayed. This is a good stride I am making and just wanna keep going with it and get it recorded on schedule. It is a big goal for me in 2020 that's for sure!

My Thoughts On The Minimum Wage Going Up Here In Canada

               To start today's blog post out by saying, I do not usually talk politics on this blog but today is an exception as this has been on my mind for the last month or so since they announced this was going to happen here in Ontario and Canada. I will try to keep it PG but not guaranteeing anything. Trust me there is a lot on my mind with this and I will definitely be making my points.


                 First point I would like is they have now raised it to $14 minimum wage and will be raising it to $15 as of early 2019. Now my question is, how in the world are the businesses going to be able to pay their employees 15 dollars per hour? What I think will happen is they keep this up they will have to lay off some of their employees which means the number of unemployed people will be up. Now I am hoping that it would of gone up not gone down, no damn clue what the hell this government is doing and why they wanna up it. Yes it is good for us the people who are working minimum wage, but it hurts the businesses in the long run too. Makes no sense raising it if it will hurt the businesses, especially the smaller businesses as well. I wondered if I was still with the bookstore, if I would still have my job still but probably I wouldn't have a job if I was still in the working world.


                     One thing is if the Progressive Conservative Party wins this years election as we are heading to the polls, they want to slowly increase the minimum wage here compare to the nut case who is the Premiere of Ontario, so it would be more then likely better, however you never know with who is in power, but change is always good. I hope the government doesn't rush minimum wage as I said above, it can hurt businesses, especially the smaller businesses, we do not want to see companies go under due to going bankrupt or not able to pay their employees which it ends up in unemployment for some.


Have a great day!

How Do I Catch Up On Work, I am Behind On?

         So how do I catch up on work that I fall behind? Well first of all I make a list with the most important thing at the top of my list to the least most important and I go from there.  I mean it is hard enough to keep up with the work load and I find making a list with the most important to the least important and I find it easy to work with. Now how do I make the list, what do I put this list on? Well first of all I have my black folder book with the pad of paper in it and I use the note pad I have in the book and write them 1 at a time. Sometimes I don't always use the book but majority of the time I do. Right now I can say I am not using it, I resorted to not using it however in the next paragraph I will tell you what I am currently using to help me out.


               What I am using and it is quite good to use. Since Windows 7 came out the app with the sticky notes, I started to utilize since I was in college back in 2010 so I started writing down what is the most important thing to get done to the least important and if I had like due dates or in this case with Chris B On The Web the date I need it done and right now I COULD use this technique or both what I said above as right now I am complete chaos with my work load with planning the preview for Amazing Race and prepping for Survivor and now the announced Big Brother Canada, so I think I am going to start utilizing this right away this way I know what needs to be done. 


                So I highly recommend this techniques as it has helped me in the past and it sure does make life so much easier to manage life and to get things done when they are set to be done, especially when you have to get it done for the specific time like I go through on a regular basis. If you do not use this technique then you are destine to fall behind on things just like I am right now, so I highly recommend this technique and let me know if this works for you or what you use to help you stand on track!
