Working for the Adsense Guy

Well, here I am sitting here thinking about what I want to say. I don't plan to be political but I am sure there are times when I will rise up and voice my opinion. If you want politics - check out my husband's blog: My Point Exactly! - now there is a guy with some political opinions - thankfully I share those opinions (at least most of them) which makes for a very stable marriage.

For those who haven't read my profile (and since I haven't created it as yet - no one has), I am a Granny. A very YOUNG granny to be sure but a granny just the same. I have four grandchildren. Two of them were what I like to term "practice" grandkids. I got the chance to start learning how to spoil them about two years ago. They are Adrianna and Xavier - ages 4 and 5 respectively. Xavier will be six in October and is starting school next week - he is so excited he can hardly see straight. The other two grandkids were born 11 days apart last year. My two sons, who rarely did anything together growing up, decided to have children at the same time. The result was Brandon Wiley born May 9 and Serenity Dawn born May 20. Serenity's brother and sister are my practice grandkids - and trust me I got very good at spoiling before the two babies came along.

I will be telling you lots and lots about the babies as time goes by but that's enough for today. Instead I want to talk about my boss. Dangerous proposition I know, but I asked his permission first. So as long as I don't cross any invisible lines I am okay.

Not that I would dare cross any lines - I truly LIKE my boss. I work for the Adsense guy - Joel Comm. Now, before you all jump up and down and start saying bad things (Yes, I HAVE read some of your postings) please understand that I won't tolerate anyone bad mouthing this guy. At 47 years old I have been around the block a few times and I have had good bosses and bad bosses. Joel Comm stands up there with all the good bosses - in fact, he is probably at the top of the list. I'm not saying that because he might read this later on - I am saying it because it is true.

First of all, the man is full of creative energy. You just want to touch him to see if he gives off an electrical charge. I found out that he doesn't when I shook his hand during our interview. Second, he is as real as it gets. There are no smoke and mirrors presenting a false image - he really is like a big kid who just wants to share the cookie jar with his friends. In this day and age when people are struggling to hang onto their money and the ways they acquire it - this man is sharing his secrets to anyone who will listen. My husband, Mr. Skeptical-if-it-sounds-too-good-to-be-true-it-is, was so excited about the little he'd heard and read that he started his own blog and signed up for Adsense. I've rarely seen my husband jump on anyone's bandwagon - he usually just goes along for the rides I take him on. But this is different and he can see the vast potential - so much so that he acted upon it.

Third, and I guess this was the most important thing for me, Joel walks the walk and talks the talk. He is a wonderful, Godly man. He has a sense of loyalty that is rare in these times. I know I sound a bit gushing but it has been a long time since I got on anyone's bandwagon and like my husband I am a bit skeptical about things now that I am among the more weathered of society - you know - the "Granny" crowd.

So, here I sit, yet another Joel Comm fan - but not because of what his teachings on Adsense can do for me - that alone would not garner my trust and loyalty. No, he has earned that trust and loyalty by being a man with a vision that has expanded to encompass my talents and abilities. Now THAT, I can get on board with!

Look for more on my grandchildren, my job and life in general in the days to come!
