Not one person from management gave me a kind word for 29 years of service.
Not that I expected any, but it would have been nice to hear.
Hey Chris congrats on being here 29 years.
We appreciate your hard work.
Nothing.
I didnt expect money or a gift card
Just a kind word.
For my 25 year award the head of shipping handed me my envelope with my check in it. No congrats or I appreciate your efforts. No words at all.
It makes me sad. Unappreciated. Not cared for.
Words are important. Kind words. Words of appreciation. They heal the soul. Make people smile. They are remembered.
I only have 532 days left til I retire, but it sure makes me think about getting out of here earlier……
