This is one reason why...
....I do what I do. Why I push myself hard for this job.
It's not just because it's the only way I know to work. It's not just because anything less would be considered half assed and that's just wrong.
It's because of days like today.
I'm tired. I'm kinda frustrated. Not enough time, and I'm still learning processes and procedures, so nothing is "quick and easy".
This morning as I drug my tired ass into work my boss called me in to his office.
He wanted to know how my trip went. Then he had an envelope for me. In the envelope was a letter from our upper management thanking me for my work with our National Sales Meeting in October. (all the sales managers got one, but still...) It also had a little "somethin' somethin'" to show their appreciation.
I don't remember the last time I got a thank you, let alone a little "somethin' somethin'".
Appreciation. Respect. That's what motivates me.
And makes it that much easier to drag my tired ass into the office.......
