A Little "Thank You" Sunshine....

Busily working away, the assistant manager and myself were knee deep in "auditing" yesterday.
A tedious, but necessary part of keeping the files in ship-shape order.
Just as the task seemed like an endless stack of manila legal folders the door opens and in popped the local florist lady.

Two beautiful vases filled with a single Red Rose, Gypsophlia, and LeatherLeaf Fern, nicely finished with a red bow.

A "Thank You" gesture from our manager, it was well-timed, and most definitely appreciated !


"Those who bring sunshine to the lives of others cannot keep it from themselves."
~Sir James Mathew Barrie (1860 - 1937)

What a very nice gesture Jo, a little appreciation goes a long way after a job well done. Great photo, great quote too and so true. Have a wonderful weekend.

Hi Jo, What a neat thing for your manager to do. The manager obviously appreciated all of the work you and the asst. were doing. Things like that really do mean alot, don't they????? AND--appreciation is never given as much as it should be.

Hugs,
Betsy

Great timing, it reminds me that I haven't bought flowers for my wife in a while. Time to shock her, I mean surprise her. You have a nice manager. There should be more managers like that out there.
