Another lovely work moment

[thrihyrne]

Not only did I get to leave at 2:30 because all of the sales agents left early, but when I got in this morning I found a holiday card at my desk with a fun, yarn-centric $2 Oregon lottery ticket in it of all things. The card wasn't from my supervisor, as I'd first supposed, but someone else whose title I'm not at all certain of, but who has been quite friendly. (I should note that it appears that she gave all of us in the CSR department these cards, with the lottery tickets, but it doesn't make the gesture less appreciated.) It was the inside that really made me feel so positive about my decision to work there. She wrote: I am so glad you decided to join the VelaPoint team. We love having you here. Merry Christmas. :D Not only that, but she spelled my name correctly! This is no small feat considering that my name everywhere built into the lists is as my legal name, Kristen, and there are many ways to spell Kristi.

So now I'm settling in to watch part 3 of a fabulous BBC documentary about the history of Beijing and then other stuff I've downloaded, and knitting. I sense a lot of my next few days will resemble that, lol.

It's so nice to feel wanted. :)

Merry Christmas!

It is, indeed. Merry Christmas to you, too, my dear fellow redhead! I'm reading "The Roots of Desire: The Myth, Meaning and Sexual Powers of Red Hair" by Marion Roach whilst on the bus and train, and quite admittedly, thinking of you. It's an interesting read, should you find yourself without literature. ;)

Merry Christmas Eve, friend! And I'm glad to hear that your new job is working out awesomely.

It's lovely!! There's a part of me that rebels against the self-actualization of all of that, but what is so real and so necessary is the human element, and that is where I excel.

Happy Yule! And a belated Solstice shout-out! I think I'll send out my cards for Imbolc. ;)
