RE: Time to give thanks

This is indeed the perfect post to say: Thank you, GalenKP, for your continued support despite my absence sometimes and not being as active as I'd like to be. I have noticed over the past week or so that you have been upvoting some of my comments that I left for others and I had wanted to thank you for those but didn't want to put it into a random comment under a random post. So, here is your gratitude post and it just fits this purpose. So - thank you. And not only for the monetary upvote, but for acknowledging my comment. I appreciate you.

I wholeheartedly agree with your post. Showing gratitude so it is seen by others may serve as a means to uplift directly and indirectly. I, too, am good at my job, I know it. When colleagues or customers comment to that effect, it always makes me a little uncomfortable (stupid women's feeling that is!). Thankfully, over the years, I have had bosses who knew it, too. Some more, some less appreciative. It makes such a huge difference to have a boss that shows such appreciation every once in a while. Hmm, this thought makes me check in with myself, as a boss myself, to ensure that I do the same. I think I do but I also think that there is almost always room for improvement.

Sort:  

I like to reward people whose company I enjoy and those who engage with relevance and personality...of course, those who power up and support others also...that you. So, that's why I've upvoted a few here and there. I spend some time looking at people's engagement and if I see some who are genuine with it then I'm more willing to vote on them.

Thanks for saying thanks, that says a lot in itself.

I like the rest of your comment, the thoughts behind it and yep, nice to hear thos post caused a self-check which is something we should all be doing, all the time.
