I received an "extra mile award" at work today. Apparently a customer that I helped told the manager about how helpful I was and how they believe that I went above and beyond for them. The manager called into corporate and told whoever there about what the customer had said, and they sent me the extra mile award, which I got today, much to my surprise. According to the manager, out of the approximate 300,000 people who work for the company, only about 3,000 to 4,000 of them get this award each year. It will also enter me into a quarterly drawing for [dolmansaxlil] [Monty Hall] Fabulous Prizes! [/Monty Hall] [/dolmansaxlil] ( ) These fabulous prizes include cash money ($10,000 to $15,000) or a new car, among other lesser and not as fabulous but still good prizes. (Including company gift cards, etc).Very exciting! |

That's great news. Whenever I have a patient who says that the care they got (during a different hospitalization) was good, I tell them to write a letter. Administration frequently hears the complaints, but the praise is rare, indeed. Well done, jgoo. Well done indeed! |
