To my amazing coworkers,

I am surrounded by some of the craziest, funny, loving, and sassiest coworkers on a daily basis. When I come in to work every day, I look forward to seeing each and every one of you. As I walk in the door, you guys are there to greet me. You ask me how my day is and want to hear about what I have done since the last time you saw me. We greet each other with a smile and we get to work.

As we work, we joke around. We each pick on each other, we have our inside jokes that no one but us understand. We gossip together. We share stories. We complain together and talk about some of the most random things. You know parts of my life that others don’t. You listen to me complain about my struggles and my issues. You listen to me ramble on about my day at school and sit there and listen. You laugh at my stupid jokes, even when they aren't that funny. You always know how to cheer me up by cracking a joke. You take pictures with me even when you don’t want to. We sometimes go out after work and that’s when the real fun happens. We don’t have to be as professional and proper as we do at work. We get to see a glimpse of each others lives outside of work.

You don’t get mad when I make a mistake or ask you a million questions. You simply smile and help me, even though I have asked you the same question like 15 times. I appreciate it. Just be patient. One day I might remember how to do it.

You have helped me grow in my professional and personal life. I have learned valuable skills from each of you. I’ve learned to not be so serious all the time. Even in a professional setting, you still have to have fun! You have taught me to enjoy life while I can. You guys have made me smile on my gloomy days and made me laugh until I am about to pee my pants. Some of my best laughs have been at work with you guys.

You guys always have my back. You don’t let anyone give me crap. If someone is out of line, you guys are right there to defend me. When I get overwhelmed, you guys remind me to take a step back and breath.

You guys are like my family. Each of you are like another mom to me. You treat me as though I am another one of your children and I appreciate it. It is nice having that support system. We may not have known each other long, but it feels like we have known each other forever. I have been very fortunate to have such a great group of ladies to work with on a daily basis. Thank you for the laughs, support, and the memories. You guys are the best!
