Our daughter, Melissa, went to a convention recently in Vegas. After arriving late at night, she woke up the next morning to this view out her hotel window, the city with the Rockies in the background. It sounds like she had a good time, lots of meetings and dinners, not much sight-seeing, but a good break from the everyday life.
Everyday life at Melissa's house is 2 jobs, 4 kids, and all the stuff that goes along with that. Her first job is home transcription so she is there all day, her second job is doing home parties, so she gets out on the weekends to travel and meet folks.The recent convention was for her second job, she was recognized for her hard work, winning several awards. We are very proud of our hardworking firstborn!
First-borns
Positives: They are natural leaders and often high achievers. The majority of politicians, spokespersons and managing directors are first-borns. They frequently live with a sense of entitlement and even superiority. They often come in two flavors: compliant nurturers/caregivers or aggressive movers and shakers. Both are in control; they just use different methods. As a rule, first-borns are picky, precise people - they pay attention to detail - tend to be punctual, organized, and competent. They want to see things done right the first time. They don't like surprises.
Negatives: They are often moody and occasionally lack sensitivity. They can be intimidating, particularly by pushing people too hard or refusing to take no for an answer. Sometimes they can be a bit 'know-it-all', and often they are poor at delegating - largely because they don't trust other people as much as they trust themselves. They also tend to be bossy, perfectionists and overly-conscientious.
Hey, Melissa, I found this online, I think they know you pretty well!
