T'was a Fine Party

Saturday, December 21/19

So last night was the company Christmas party, the one I had debated attending.

I received several messages from people who had read the entry where I expressed having some second thoughts about going to the company telling me I really should go and coupled with more than one coworker telling me the same thing did end up going last night.

My company has three locations in Ottawa and probably employes about 3200 people in the region and maybe 4100 worldwide with the number growing monthly through the combination of internal growth and acquisitions.

Of those 3200, I'd say approximately 2500 ended up going to the party!!!

I'm not going to go into too many details about the party other than to say it was just as loud and crowded as I feared but all in all T'was a Fine Party in the end.

I shared drinks with coworkers from my own office, met some from our main production site that I'd only communicated with through conference calls and Google hangouts, and managed to be seen by more senior executives than I'd normally be comfortable with.

That's it, that's all.

Thanks for the encouragement and words of support think that was what ended up being the deciding factor in the end.

My name is Marcus and as Yoda would likely say about me......wide open heart for love he does have
