So sad to hear! I really worry a lot about my ...Oh! So sad to hear! I really worry a lot about my husband or a friend getting seriously injured some day. We have a few bike paths in Baltimore, but it really could be made to be more bike friendly. A huge number of people are starting to bike now because the public transportation in this city is so terrible. However, there seems to be this group of blue collar Baltimore citizens that have lived here for generations that also don't want or like change. Those individuals scare me the most when they make comments about bikes needing to get out of their way. (Comparing a 2 ton vehicle to a 40lb bike--- eek!) When I watched that bike video, all I could think of was how amazing it would be to live somewhere with that sort of system-- it just made total sense. I have a hard time understanding why people wouldn't want someone to use a bike instead of a car, but I suppose that's opening a whole different can of worms.Heidihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16399278722730145545noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1756274743506832019.post-71289004310609715452014-05-20T08:23:56.178-04:002014-05-20T08:23:56.178-04:00Yup, so many people have said the same thing! They...Yup, so many people have said the same thing! They feel as though they are a waste at work sometimes because they are supposed to be working, but don't really have enough to do. Over time they become less productive because of it all. If we had more vacation time, I'm sure people would become a lot more productive.Heidihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16399278722730145545noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1756274743506832019.post-26339092190586843072014-05-20T08:22:21.190-04:002014-05-20T08:22:21.190-04:00Yes!

It's no longer about the individuals, but rather how can I use these people to my advantage to get ahead.Heidihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16399278722730145545noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1756274743506832019.post-21558855140327112292014-05-20T01:01:30.529-04:002014-05-20T01:01:30.529-04:00I'm going to have to watch the bike video tomo...I'm going to have to watch the bike video tomorrow, definitely. Indianapolis has certainly improved its trails in the last few years, and they are always building more. (I actually either bike or walk to work every day, and take the same trail every day, as it leads directly to my office.) However, due to various circumstances, several cyclists in the last couple of weeks have been injured or killed while on the road! It's definitely made bicycling safety in the city an issue.Heidihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16399278722730145545noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1756274743506832019.post-70601739543518352102014-05-15T10:53:01.756-04:002014-05-15T10:53:01.756-04:00I too love that Danish article.

People spend so much time chatting around here. I'm sure if we had smaller workdays we'd work harder and get much more done. Sigh, I'm going to become Danish. :)Heidihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16399278722730145545noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1756274743506832019.post-74621685781583380332014-05-15T09:06:44.064-04:002014-05-15T09:06:44.064-04:00That Danish article was interesting!!

As a person who has worked for several different types of companies, the one thing I see that they all have in common is that they don't really care for the employee. The notion is crazy because obviously you care for yourself but as soon as people get hired it becomes like a machine and the collective no longer cares for the individual.Heidihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16399278722730145545noreply@blogger.com
