When it comes to going to work, we all hate it, but we love to spend time together.

5 Ways My Coworkers Make Work Worthwhile
Hidden Remote

Like most adults, I have to go to work every day and like everyone, I dread going to work. The thought of it just makes exhausted, but I go to be able to pay my bills, buy groceries and gas, and be able to do fun stuff on my days off. The only thing that really motivates me to go to work are my coworkers (well besides money lol). They just make my day so much better and they make time pass so much faster. These are the ways they make work fun.

1. They have interesting conversations.

With my coworkers, I learn something new every day. Whether it is about what classes they are taking this semester or what hobby they are into now, we always have fun and interesting topics to talk about. We either end up being super intrigued or we just end up laughing about whatever we are talking about.

2. HOT GOSSIP.

We always get together and gossip about celebrities or people... and it is so much fun! We always get the juicy details of everything we saved for each other. We love trying to figure who's dating and who's not. This helps pass the time faster because we get so caught up in doing research and finding out some more information.

3. We help each other out.

When times get tough, we always have each other's backs. I love how we all literally work as a team and help each other out. My favorite part is how none of us expect anything in return. Sometimes if one of us is weeded, the other will rush and help us out without being asked and I am so grateful for that because I have never worked in a place where the coworkers actually work together.

4. We get frustrated at the same things.

When it comes to working at a restaurant, there are a lot of things that can make us frustrated. Number one on the list is the customers - they easily push our buttons and we all can relate to this. When we are frustrated, we are able to get everything off our chests by just talking to each other. A pair of listening ears can go so far and my coworkers make the best ones.

5. We take time creating secret menus.

Whenever it is slow at work or we are really hungry, we go through the menu and try to see what concoction we can make with the certain foods. It is also loads of fun because we are able to try the foods we have combined. Some of them are delicious, some of them are atrocious. But its OK, it is all good times.


Work sucks, but the employees there make it so much more worthwhile. They make me excited to go to work and I just love spending time with them. They are the best friends I didn't expect to meet. I can't ask for better coworkers and I don't even need to.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
