Floyd's 99 Barbershop’s Post

I have two autographs I have obtained, in person. One is from Jerry Rice, who my brother and I saw in the Las Vegas airport several years ago and the other is from Lajohn Witherspoon, the frontman from one of my absolute favorite bands, Sevendust. These two famous people had polar opposite personalities when I met them. Jerry Rice was rude and arrogant and gave me a look that said "you want an autograph from me? Who are you and why should I give you one?" I did get the autograph but I recall what a diva like attitude he had and him grudgingly giving me the autograph. I think he's one of the greatest WR's of all time and seeing this side of him really disappointed me. Lajohn Witherspoon on the other hand was amazing, welcoming and very friendly. Now, this was a planned event and maybe that was the difference but I'm fairly certain if I saw Lajohn in an airport he'd be cool about it. What is my point? People remember your interactions with them, especially if it is something unique and memorable in their lives. I'll likely never meet Jerry or Lajohn again but I'll never forget how my interactions with them played out. The same idea can be said for how we interact with people in our role as a code officials, especially if what we are explaining to them is impactful to their lives, and it often is. Will they remember you being helpful and empathetic to their situation (even if you can't help them) or will they remember someone who was difficult, combative and closed off to discussing alternative solutions for their situation? That is up to you. #customerservice #interactions #codeofficial #buildingdepartment #empathy #understanding

🤔💇♂️ Barber’s Dilemma: A Hairy Situation! 💈✂️ Ever heard the saying, “Never ask a barber if you need a haircut”? Let me tell you, Daniel S. Greenberg was onto something profound, and not just about your hairstyle choices. Think about it. It’s like asking a coffee addict if you should have another espresso (spoiler: the answer is always yes) or a cat if it needs more treats (trust me, the kitty court will always rule in favor of more snacks). But let’s dive deeper. This witty quip is actually a life lesson in disguise. It’s about seeking advice from those who might have a, let’s say, ‘biased’ perspective. Like asking your mother if your childhood macaroni art belongs in a museum – love you, Mom, but maybe I wasn’t the pint-sized Picasso we thought I was! In my coaching program and book, ‘Welcome to Your Thought Life’, I delve into this concept. It’s all about understanding who to turn to for guidance, and when it’s better to trust your own judgment. After all, you’re the master of your destiny, not the barber holding the scissors to your future (or your bangs). So, next time you’re pondering a big decision, remember the barber and think: Who’s holding the scissors in this scenario? #LifeLessonsFromTheBarberShop #TrustYourGut #BarberWisdom #johnalanturnercoaching

Smiling in your Heashot or Not? Smiling in your headshot can convey a variety of positive qualities and make a great impression. A smile makes you appear friendly and approachable. It can help people feel more at ease when interacting with you. A smile adds warmth to your expression, and reflects your friendliness and likability. A smile radiates positivity, which can be appealing to others. It can create a positive association with your image. A confident smile can convey self-assurance. It shows that you are comfortable in front of the camera and confident in yourself. If you're planning to have headshots taken and you're considering not smiling, it's essential to think about the message you want to convey. While a smiling expression is often associated with approachability and friendliness, a serious or neutral expression can convey professionalism, confidence, and versatility.

🐧🌟 Title: "Percy the Peacock: Bringing Creativity to the Corporate World" 🦚🏢 In the corporate world, where everyone seemed to dress in black and white, there was Percy the Peacock, who stood out with his vibrant feathers. You might wonder why a colorful peacock ended up in a place known for being very serious. Percy's story began when he got lost and found himself in this corporate world full of penguins in suits. At first, his colorful appearance surprised everyone, but Percy was friendly and had great stories to tell. He shared stories of creativity from his colorful homeland, while the penguins taught him about being organized and efficient. Together, they mixed creativity and efficiency, just like when you blend different colors to make a beautiful painting. Percy showed them that having different ideas and perspectives can make work more interesting and exciting. Just like how a rainbow makes the sky more beautiful, diversity can make a workplace more vibrant and fun. 🌈🏢🦚 #DiversityAtWork #Creativity #DifferentPerspectives #FunAtWork#learning&development
