Compensations

Sep 17, 2014 21:11

After a really tough day at work, after a day of not feeling particularly special in any way and feeling a little despairing, I shared a good meal with a good friend, and then came home to discover a Presidential Merit Award from The Elongated Collectors in the mail. Completely unexpected. It's a certificate and a beautiful elongated Kennedy half dollar engraved with the following:

--------------
Presidential Merit Award
"...ask what you can do..."
You didn't ask, you just did
Thank you from TEC
--------------

I nearly burst into tears right there.

The certificate says:

As President of The Elongated Collectors, I am pleased to present this award to
Janna Silverstein
in recognition of her service as TC Governor in charge of the annual Design Contest. She has done an outstanding job on the Design Contest, and brings an informed opinion to many items of discussion, thus saving us time and potentially money.

Signed,
Nancy Wooten, president
