Life of HR
Here is a post from my HR consulting blog. Enjoy!
Sometimes I feel like I’m a life coach. As an HR professional, I make tough decisions and have tough conversations daily. I don’t mind. Sometimes people need to hear the candid truth, whether it’s regarding performance, leadership capabilities or attitude.
The disheartening part about all the conversations are the ones that don’t go well because an employee refuses to take accountability for their part. How have we become such a society that points the finger and blames others for our shortcomings!? I see it every day. Every. Single. Day. And while the nature of my career allows me to come in contact with these things more so than the average person, it still sucks every time I realize that someone is blaming someone else when they should be blaming themselves.
Advice: take charge of your life. Personally and professionally. And if you make a mistake…take ownership, find out how you…

Wedding Chronicles
Our wedding is less than 20 days away. Yay! I’m convinced that if you can plan a wedding, then you can pretty much do anything! hehe. It’s true! I am ready to discuss with anyone who would like to challenge me on that. Even though we will be engaged for one year on May 4th, I did not start the planning process until around late August/early September. And here we are…18 days away from spending a ton of money for a huge party that features us as the celebrity guests. Sweet deal I think…until you get down to all the little details that MUST be perfect for the day to be PERFECT.
Now, I’m not one of those women that have planned my wedding day since I was a little girl…really…not me at all. I’m not one to get my hopes up. I like to go with the flow when it comes to relationships. Mainly because not all relationships work out. When I met my fiancée, I knew he would be my husband, but I didn’t get my hopes up, because you never know who or what God has in store for you. So, I prayed about it, and went on dating, and experiencing the love of this wonderful man I’m about to marry. It took 3 years, but he proposed and I’m ready to get hitched.
Ok, back to the wedding planning process. I started with grand, expensive ideas until I realized that my ideas were just expensive. My goal is to live comfortably after the wedding is over. No debt, no stress after May 17th! And we are going to make that happen for real yall. No jokes! hahaha *nervous laugh*
I plan to write all about my wedding experience from a “before and after” perspective. This post is the “before”…
Here is what I’ve learned…
Even though your guests know RSVP is important, they don’t always do it … ugh.
Everyone will expect to receive an invitation…even if they met you only 2 minutes ago. I have responded to many Facebook messages that said “Where is my invitation?” Ugh.
Weddings are expensive. And that’s all I will say about that…for fear of hyperventilating at this moment, at the thought of how much money we are spending, even though we are low compared to most weddings. The only way you won’t think weddings are expensive — you own a money tree that constantly produces money for anything you want. Plus that’s what every wedding vendor/venue thinks anyway. I should have started saving for my wedding at birth. ugh.
Stay tuned for other things I’ve learned. These are just the top 3.
