Today's freewrite prompt reminds me of my accounting days and this quote:

“I suppose it is tempting, if the only tool you have is a hammer, to treat everything as if it were a nail.

― Abraham Maslow, Toward a Psychology of Being

I had a benefit of seeing many places of business throughout my career. I was a freelance bookkeeper in the beginning and saw maybe 100 sets of books for various places over about a 3 year span of time.

Then I worked for a large corporation that had their fingers into everything from golf courses, to water treatment plants, to property development and retail outlets.

After that I was an auditor and saw another 100 sets of book in a couple of years. 

On and on it went, and that is just the first third of the time I worked.

Through it all, you would find a few types of people:
- willing to do whatever you told them
- wanted to do it their way
- full of ideas and excited
- could not figure out what was going on
- burnt out and could not care less

The second group, who wanted to do it their way, were usually the hardest to work with. They were the people with the hammers. No matter what you told them, or how you explained it, or how often the boss was called, they were doing it the way they wanted to and that was that.

Sometimes, they were valuable in other ways, and their work would be corrected or altered by someone else after it was out of their hands. Other times they were fired and had to go do it their way for someone else. 


My post is for the #freewrite daily challenge by @mariannewest. Freewrite is a great way to post on steemit when you do not think you have the time, or talent, or anything to say.

Statistics say that only 5% of people with health resolutions for the New Year will still be on track after Super Bowl Sunday. Is your fitness equipment still out handy, and are you still on a "diet?" Soon we will be in Bathing Suit Season. Are you ready?
