Celebrate Employees and Salespeople Today

Having finally set the Valentine's Day frenzy to rest, we've moved into March, and we want to invite you to celebrate not one, but two holidays with us today!

The first holiday is Employee Appreciation Day. We've got a day to celebrate secretaries and administrative assistants and professionals; we have a day to celebrate our employers and bosses. Today, though, is the employers' chance to celebrate the people who work for them. If you have a chance today, at the very least, please thank the people who work for you, because it's very likely that you were once in their position at some point in your career.

If you have a lot of people who work for you, why not brighten the whole office and thank them all at once? Come in to Paul Wood Florist in Old Town Fort Collins today or this weekend, and pick up a floor plant or even a ficus tree to visually demonstrate your appreciation for all of the people who work with you. They will thank you for your consideration!

The second holiday is National Salesperson Day. Take just a few extra seconds when you're checking out today, whether at a coffee shop or a floral shop or a grocery store or anywhere else, and thank the person who is helping you. Sales personnel often get overlooked in the rush to finish shopping and get out of the store, but without them, you'd be stuck more often than not trying to figure out how to convince the self-checkout station to ring up your fresh produce.

Breathe a sigh of relief when you see someone waiting to check you out, personally and with a smile, and be sure to say thank you. We're losing the art of face-to-face communication in our culture. Don't let it happen to you!
