Seriously?

It wasn’t enough that during my first week of work at this new job, my coworker brought me coffee every morning. Or that one of them pretended to visit the men's room during a dinner, but instead snuck out to go to a convenient store to buy headache medicine for me, because I briefly mentioned that I had a minor headache that evening.

Today, however, was the icing on the cake.

I must have seemed pretty busy or frustrated yesterday (you know, more high strung than I normally am), and my coworker asked if there was anything she could do to help me clear up the tasks on my plate. (This is pretty normal with my team. Even if they don’t know how to help, they’ll still ask.) So, I responded to her, thanks so much but I’m good. And jokingly, I said I wanted cake. That was yesterday afternoon.

This morning, she brought me a an entire chocolate cake. Delicious, decadent, moist, chocolate cake.

Then, she had an answering service call me to wish me a good Friday and a fun weekend! I got the message twice from what sounded like a women in an Indian call center. (The fact that she pronounced my name perfectly, kind of gave it away.)

She wouldn’t let me hug her in front of coworkers, but I snuck one in anyway. I mean who does that???

I heart my team. With a big RED HEART NS.
