WMW: Sincerely, Your Co-Workers

Ah yes.  Time for another WMW.  I'll do a blog update after this, but this topic is fun.

Today's prompts were to either 1.) write a letter about you from the perspective of your boss or co-workers, or 2.) write about what your working lunch entails.  Since my lunch is pretty boring [either run home to clean house, Wal-Mart to grocery shop or sit at my desk and catch up on sports], I thought I'd do a letter from my co-workers.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Dear E,

It's been a pleasure having you in our department since your move less than a year ago.  I know one of us is brand new, but we both appreciate the hard work and dedication you put into your job.

We love that you are so knowledgeable about this university and that we can turn to you to answer a wide range of questions.  Your previous experience as a recruiter has helped us answer questions for our students without having to dig around for the answer.  We also see how your students appreciate you and turn to you for advice, which is admirable.

We also really, really appreciate all your random baking days [such as the cupcakes AND brownies you brought to work yesterday] and our random conversations about life, books and Harry Potter.  You help make this environment fun, especially on the slow days when nothing's really going on.

Thanks for bringing a new perspective, set of skills and awesome goodies to this office.  Looking forward to working with you well into the future!

Your co-workers

Now, granted, I would say the same things about them - my co-workers are awesome, and they're so fun to work with every single day.  They help break up the monotony of the job and make the slow days fly.  Just wanted to throw that out there. :)

Happy Wednesday everyone!  Halfway through another week!

[side note: did you know there are only 45 days until christmas? oh boy!]
