Thumbs up Good for You! - 09-08-2009, 04:29 PM


My Son got that honor for officer of the year last year but I don't think he got a gift certificate to Fort Worth Camera.

It's a good day for you! Congrats on both counts.

Chief Tatsak called me and said " hey, this loser Chris has annoyed us enough that he's being labeled "employee of the the month" (and we all know what that REALLY means) !!
He asked what would annoy you the most as a gift and I told him to give you a gift certificate to a camera store because they don't sell anything for less than $100 bucks. He said "Great, I'll give him a $50 certificate and that should piss him off pretty good !"
As far as the friends kids go, wait until you find out the "fun" they've got in store for you....

or

Congratulations. You work hard and help keep the system going and deserve the recognition.

or

In a department of only 12 employees, being selected employee of the month should not be a surprise.

or

Well I can't come up with anything else, so you'll just have to pick one of the
stories above and delete the rest.....

Actually... we dont eat many donuts at all at our department. We instead opt for those little chicken mini biscuits from Chik-Fil-A... MMMMMM!!! Even those platters of their chicken nuggets is yummy!!!

I'll go for the above... I think we are closer to 50 people. And the mother of those kids is an officer, trust me, they DONT misbeave!

OH!!!! I forgot to tell y'all. It gets even better. After we had our little 'robbery', and then our accident, and then our medical call... I finally got around to opening the envelope that the 'cert' was in...... well apparently someone dropped the ball and didn't get an actual gift cert, so it was actually CASH!!! WOOOOWHOOOOOO!!!!

Now I can go see Melanie at Arlington Camera. (Well, in a couple weeks at least, when I get more money to add to it!)
