What? Is that a smiley face?  Ha, surprised myself.  ;)

Was planning on taking my team out for dinner since one of the girls is going on vacay before my end.  We all went out and I was going to treat everyone and you know what happened?  They treated me.  Wow.  So touched.  :)

They really like me.  :)  They kept telling me I was a good manager and one guy even said I was the coolest manager he had ever had.  That’s so nice.

One of the things about being in charge is that you want to be liked.  You never want to be the one that people starting talking bout when you step out of the room.  It’s nice to be liked.

Funny thing too – they asked, “how are you always so calm?”  So even keeled.  Funny they don’t know how NOT CALM I am all the time.  I guess I put on a good face when I’m there in efforts to be the buffer.  If I’m calm, it helps them not freak out.  :)

Ah, I’m going to miss my team.
