Yesterday at work I was doing some of the processing of defective items on the handheld computer. My "work space" for this is along the wall of a hallway between where people walk in and the Market Team's office. (Market Team is the group of folks who are above my store manager, making sure he's carrying out policy, etc.). Our head Market guy is Steve. He walks up and asks how it's going, and .. its been a tough week off and on for me, so I was honest and mentioned how I was feeling a little overwhelmed by some of it. And he said "Don't worry, you'll do fine. You'll learn quickly, and have it running great, just like you did in all the other departments you've worked in." Kudos!
Today, I was sweeping up my "office" (which is really a cage that gets locked up every night, because of the secured items in it) after most of the day's work was done. The store manager popped in on his way past and asked how I was liking the job. And I was honest... and said that I wasn't real sure about it, that it was difficult to do something totally different after doing the same thing for the past six years. And he told me "Not to worry, you'll do fine. You're the right person for the job." Kudos!
And in talking about the economy and taxes, someone who knows me well says "I'm pissed off with people that are doing well, that don't want to share. Here it is, you are working damned hard, damn damn harder than anybody I know, and all the breaks go to the wealthy." Kudos!
And sometimes, we have to give kudos as well:
To my sis, Em : Leaving something is hard; but going to something totally new, and challenging, is worth it. I've watched you grow as a person in the past three years, and you're going to be GREAT in this new position! 5374 will miss you bunches! KUDOS Sis!!
HUGS to everyone!
