Sunday Night Memo, 1/13/19

January 13, 2019

I hope you had a good weekend enjoying all the snow.  I know the commute home Friday was awful and am thankful that everyone is safe, aside from some fender benders, and made it home.  The upside to these situations is watching how we mobilize to take care and look out for each other.  I loved watching folks help out in the office with the steady stream of not so happy parents picking up kids, coordinating tricky bus/cab departures, supervising kids in the hallways and stepping in for others who had longer commutes to allow them to try and get a head start on the road.  It’s times like these that we really are more than just a group of people who work together and I’m grateful for each of you.

Here’s to a “normal” week!
