Yesterday the CEO announced at the company meeting that I am the newest Employee Of The Month. Along with a tasty cash bonus and my name plastered on every major door in the building, I got major kudos at the meeting. Observe the following, as read by Mike, our CEO:
"Chris is the kind of employee that a manager loves to have. He's timely, courteous, and ethical. He takes pride in his work - balancing his ability to create well-crafted tickets with a concern for the queue. Chris has a sense of urgency where our clients are concerned. He automatically triages problems, escalates them when appropriate, and works the rest to resolution."
Boy, do I have THEM fooled! Hah, just kidding. I bust my ass at work, and it's nice to see some recognition. Not only that, my name is now in the hat to go on a trip to the Cayman Islands courtesy of the company. Now that would top off an exceptional year.

Update: I've decided my tasty cash bonus will go toward a friend in need. Kyle's wife is a fellow SomethingAwful Forums Member and posted her request in a thread that has since been stickied to the top of GBS. They can have my money, but I'm keeping my goddamned Dr Pepper. (Well, okay... if Kyle needed my Dr Pepper, he can have that too.)
