Two numbers: 5 & 2. 5 > 2… Every time.

In many ways, this simple equation became the genesis for why Candace and I created LBW. I’ll let you in on a little secret that you already know: there are way more weekday days than weekend days.   Every week, Scout’s honor!  And if this equation has anything to say about it, I think it’s important that we make the most of those ‘5’ each week.

I work as a Sales & Development Trainer at Indeed.com and my company just launched a new ad campaign that seemed to dovetail with our mission perfectly. (And no, I’m not just saying that because I work there!)

The video showcases Mike Reno, Loverboy lead singer and writer of the hit song “Working for the Weekend.”  Reno admits that there was a time where every Monday was essentially a countdown to Saturday, and that, with a little help from Indeed, he doesn’t think that people are just working toward the weekend anymore.

I think it’s pretty neat to work for a company with a core mission of helping people get jobs. Take a look at the clip above, and here’s to finding the career you love!
