FlorineD: I'm happy to hear that another blogfest is planned. But the Hoffman/Gookin theory of economics would suggest to the SR that “recognition” is not a legitimate business expense. Yea, yea, I hear them howling that there's a difference between private industry finance and tax funds. But I say that the “city” is a business, not a clutch of volunteers. And recognition is a time-honored way to foster morale. So, I'll attempt to be humble and gracious as I accept my pizza; and I'll spring for some suds for the blogmeister.
Question: Have you ever been recognized for something by your employee?
