In 2001, I was nominated for President's Club, an award where my
company recognizes employees for outstanding contribution. I was lucky
enough to be one of four recipients receiving the award at our local office for
work performed during the year 2000. This award is much more than most
corporations' pat on the back.
Over 300 employees received an all-expenses-paid trip to the
Bahamas. Perks included five days off work, airfare, a Royal Caribbean
cruise, all-inclusive drink card, $450 spending money, AND we could each bring a
guest.
Some of my favorite memories include:
Arriving in our room to find a bottle of chilled champagne,
Surprise gifts left in the room after each dinner
(including a clock, two beach towels with company logo, and a beach bag
stocked with sunscreen and a disposable camera),
Dolphin Encounters, where we were able to hug, kiss,
touch, and feed a dolphin,
Parasailing, which was AWESOME, despite my fear of
heights,
Relaxing on the beach,
Free drinks,
All the meals (with many various interesting, annoying,
and otherwise amusing companions). On a cruise, you never know what
you're gonna get!
