Our work is full of a variety of deadlines and while no one ever dies, there are emergencies and things that need done very fast. Those of us who work here love this stress, thrive on the tight turn-around times and on making our customers (you) happy. This allows us to feel satisfied in our jobs and like we are helping the world be happier in a small sort of way.
This means, we have attracted the best, most interesting, most creative co-workers ever. In the midst of a disagreement, someone will ask for an arm-wrestling contest. Things like this happen.
In the past week, here are the moments that have filled our workplace with joy.
- We had a bbq with cookies that tasted like red velvet cake
- We did pushups mid day to see if we could all get to 20 pushups
- We all worked together to load some donated heuss printing notepads into one of our favorite customer's cars
- We called a dance off
Yes, we work. We work very hard, very quickly and in a very focused way. That creates the need to let off steam and every once in a while. We discover that what we appreciate most about our lives, our customers, our jobs, each other are sometimes the small things that get us through the big things.
Go forth and have a happy day today. Thanks to those of you who call and fill our lives with awesomeness!!!
