So the lead from my last position as document control clerk quit and is going to another job, so we took him out to the Fairmont Palliser here in Calgary for lunch.
8 kinds of salad...prime rib...pastas...chicken...vegetables...
AND FIVE KINDS OF CHEESECAKE.
That's not to mention the french pastries, the raspberry coulis, the fresh fruits, Raspberry Mousse cake, Checkerboard and Mocha Tortes, moulded chocolates...
So yeah. Lunch was really, really great! And he got a leather daytimer. And a rediculously expensive pen. haha!
Have I mentioned that my company rocks? AND the people I work with? They go ALL OUT for everything. Tonight it's (free) appitizers and (again, free!) cocktails for a Customer Appreciation reception (We ordered...three pizza from them? Once? hehe!) at Quincy's, a high-end restaraunt/lounge downtown...
Next week is a milestone party with all the cool people (aka ME!), free snacks and drinks.
Then there's the Stampede pancake breakfasts...You're not actually required to work! Just eat heaps of food.
No wonder everyone puts on a good 15 lbs in the summer :)
So now, I will turn on my fan, kick up my feet, and read my book for a couple of hours. Then I'll go on my break, come back, and read some more! I LOVE MY JOB!
