AMAZING DAY!

About a week and a half ago, everyone at work received an email. Thursday the 19th, office meeting, we are going to discuss new policies and procedures. To make it nice, Dr. H is going to take us to lunch at the Cheesecake Factory and then we will come back to the office to go over all the new information. Don't be late.
Well, I hate emails like this. They make me very nervous. I didn't know what was going on. No one did. We were all nervous.
Nate told me, well, whatever it is, you get lunch out of it!
So we all get to lunch and Dr. H shows up with his wife. The intrigue increases....but we all enjoy a lovely lunch. Carol, our office manager decides to get the meeting started. So she starts off by telling us all what a great job we are doing and we are all a really important part of the office and this lunch was a thank you for all of our hard work! Whew! And then she hands out cards to all of us. And then a piece of paper, and a gift bag. And this is what the paper states:

Thanks a Million!
Here are the Rules!
1. You can only spend the money on you! No one else!
2. We get to keep all the receipts!
3. You only have until 3:30 to shop and spend all your money!
4. Meet back at the Cheesecake Factory for some dessert, laughs, and to show off what you bought!
5. Have fun!
Dr. Hunsaker
And in the gift bags were gift certificates for ALL of us for $200 each! Wahoo! Can you believe it??? Oh my goodness, it was so much fun! I got jeans, shirts, a new purse and some shoes! I seriously thought I was running a fever all day, but I'm sure it was just the excitement.
You know, I've been really happy at my job. And I'm very grateful to have my job, especially in this economy. I love everyone I work with and I work for a great Dr. Obviously :)
