The best thing that happened to me today….hmmm, it’s 11:19 pm and I can’t seem to put my finger down on it.  I’d have to say the best thing that happened to me today was that I realized I work with some of the best people ever.  They genuinely enjoy their job, they come in with a smile and provide some of the best service I’ve ever seen.  I’m not sure that I could ask any more of them.

I don’t really want to use this entry as a sob story, but the fact is, you give credit where credit is due.  No matter what my staff may believe about my thoughts of them, they are some of the best people I’ve worked with.  I’m not sure I’d trade them for anyone else and do not look forward to the day when any of them say their final goodbye.  I would sooner welcome one of my family members moving 5000 miles away.

All this didn’t come to me until I was exiting the building and walking up the street towards my car.  I turned for a second and realized that I was leaving the store in the hands of people I trusted.  People that I knew would get the job done and be ready to go harder and faster the next day.  So for those of you who don’t know and happen to be reading this, thanks for your hard work.

Of course, a special thanks to my Mom who puts up with my bullshit for 24 years now.  No one has gotten it worse that her.  Pops, even though you can’t read this probably, thanks for sticking by as well even being so far away and through all the troubles.  Like Mom, you have always given everything even when you didn’t have it all.  Pete, your the little man, my lil’ bro.  I can thank you for being the exact opposite of me.  He helped balance the Shaggy equation.  The list is endless.

If this bored you then…well I don’t really care, it needed to be said.  2010 is a new year and with a new year comes new beginnings.  No one should go unthanked.

side note: i may or may not be OCD….i’ll have to check again.
