This evening, after I finished doing some of my last garden planting I was headed inside when I noticed a little package sitting on my front porch.
At 1st I just knew it was for Suite Suzy because I had not ordered anything recently, so like the good spouse I am, I picked it up to bring inside for her.
Well as I was walking inside I looked at the mailing label & noticed that the small package was actually for me & it had my slave name on it so I was like who the hell is this from because the from was ambiguous.
So I rip open the package & see this little blue box & started to think that Suite Suzy got me a thinking of you gift & I was pretty touched at the thought.
Now I am opening the box & see this shiny pin & my little romantic hope was gone because it was not something from Suite Suzy, it was a 5 year anniversary gift from my employer; the University of Michigan Health System.
After I get over my minor let down, I was like wow, that’s awesome & felt appreciative that I got this token.
Although I have been at UMHS for 5 years, I have had 3 positions (2 promotions). This is the 1st time in my life that I have ever stayed with an employer for so long. I guess I am proud of myself.

Basking in my own glory,

Congrats. My organization used to do that. Now with tight times, layoffs and other things, they don’t give the pins away.
