Resolution #338: Create An Employee Of The Month Award For The Wicker Breaker...

Date: 12-4-2014

Due Date: 12-4-2015

The Resolution: The other day at work I noticed that we stopped awarding an Employee of the Month back in January. Again, this led to my growing hatred of corporate America. Not only do they cut benefits, pay rates, and staff size, they're also taking away acknowledgment of the remaining, understaffed, crew's hard work.

This got me thinking that if I ever became the big boss of a company I'd make sure to at least have a good employee recognition program. This led me to the realization that I work hard on TheWickerBreaker.com and barely get any recognition whatsoever.

I know I have a few loyal readers but due to my own self-hate, I tend to ignore my own accomplishments to trick myself into thinking that it's me and not my work that is failing.

Maybe I should start acknowledging myself before I expect any praise from others.

That's why starting January I will create an employee of the month program for TheWickerBreaker.com.

I know I'm the only one who works on this site but who knows maybe by this time next year I'll have an intern or something to take away my reign as the top employee.

 

Result #338: I Failed To Afford My Employee Of The Month Plaques… So… I Never Got Around To Awarding Myself…

 

Update #1: The Conclusion…

Date: 12-4-2015

Though I failed to afford the actual plaques to award my employee of the month. Luckily with a staff of one, it will be easy to remember who earned it each month for when I finally do get around to redeeming this resolution.

As always, I will keep you posted when I do.
