CEO calls yesterday to say thanks for the good job with our increased sales and revenue, and it was sincere. Other than some daytime posting here, I try my best typically.
4 years and never had a review. As a remote location we get little feedback.
A little kudos goes a long way. I'll take the complement. Nice to hear.
Too bad more people don't fully appreciate the power of some positive reinforcement (when it's due).
Thanks for letting me share LOL

Stan, most business courses reinforce the fact more people leave their employment due to lack of recognition than issues over pay.

That's what I love about commissioned sales .... you determine your own paycheck.

As you well know, all management has to do (again, when it's earned) is slap you on the back occasionally. We sales types eat that up.

Actually, you sure don't have to be a sales type to appreciate positive feedback.


MaryDOS, you look quite dapper and nicely dressed today !

Thank you, Stan. No one really appreciates a NASCAR thong, black socks and sandals anymore
