Better Job - Better Pay - Better Hurry!: Life lessons shared with humor, confirming why we work is more important than where we work, or what we do

By Robin Cummings

This is my first book and it's written to encourage routine employees seeking better jobs, happiness and more fulfilling careers. Many of these employees come from the same background as mine; one without the benefit of a "silver spoon" or "college diploma." Today, these employees are forced to compete for the best jobs against a better educated and technology savvy workforce. Millions of employees capable of better jobs and promotions work in non-managerial jobs across America. Their only want is encouragement; their only need is fairness; and their only desire is opportunity.My only qualification for writing this book is the experience I've gained over my long career as President and CEO of the Peoples Bank of Alabama; a large community bank with 28 branches in North and North Central Alabama. I've served the bank and supervised its employees for the past 30 years and know better than most how to encourage and motivate employees with less than a college education to pursue their dreams of better jobs with better pay. For years to come, these same employees will need timely advice as they face job stresses and family budget issues caused by new technologies in the workplace and the worst recession since the Great Depression.This is a book about lessons learned from my life experiences and shared through stories that are not only intended to be funny, but insightful and useful for employees trying to connect the dots between regular jobs and rewarding careers.
