It's nice to be acknowledged, even when it's by surprise. I go to work and try to do my best everyday, and honestly, cheesy at it sounds, that's enough for me. But there's something to be said for being acknowledged by your managers.
This week I got handpicked to co-create a liaison position at work with another girl and I could not be more pleased. When my manager pulled me aside to let me know this she also informed me that the managers had met to throw names around and one hundred percent, without a moment's hesitation - I was in. I feel pretty special, to be honest. I am super self conscious now, because I want to keep being impressive to my managers, but I have to be careful to take a deep breath and calm down - they loved me just the way I am, no need to go trying to be a superhero. They like me real. It's a good thing to hear, and it only confirms that this is where I've been looking for all along.
Fun fact for the day - The Carousel of Progress, which originated at the 1964 World's Fair as one of the four pavilions designed by Disney and his team is considered to be one of the more outdated rides in the Magic Kingdom. Some question it's purpose in the park - but more than anything else in the entirety of Walt Disney World, the Carousel of Progress is nostalgic. It is the single, only attraction in the park that Walt himself has ridden in. Granted, it's been a few years since those days, but that's a trait that's not true of anything else in the Florida properties, and so it's something that we hold incredibly dear.
