Nice timing. Now you can get yourself a nice Christmas gift, as well as getting gifts for others.
What a wonderful feeling to know that people at work appreciate your work.

Now think about this: Would it have cost them any money if the message was something like this..."Please come to Human Resources. Don't worry it's good." That way you would have been spared the thoughts about getting fired.

It would have been nice if my bosses had mentioned it before they left for the holidays. I had never met the human resources person before. I got an email saying to go to a specific conference room.

Buy yourself something outrageous!

You buy the next round.

Congratulations!

since surviving a reduction in force of 2/3s of the people at my company which has since been taken over by a company located in a different state, i'm just hoping i won't be blindsided and they'll give me a final date.

We'll be rooting for you!

it's good to be employed, hopefully i will continue to be and if not, hopefully i'll be able to find a position before i go broke.

i've been twisting in the wind for too long, just don't want to be blindsided.

And you're worth ever cent!

to live with your welfare in some bean-counter's hands. Not trying to be a downer, just...that's what it is.

Congrats

Excellent news.

8 bucks a month.

Yours sounds better.
Congratulations!

Good. On. You!

That's really terrific news!!!

Lots of intellectuals and nerds. I fit in well.

Congrats! You must have done a good job.

Glad to hear good things happening for one of our own.

Wonderful news to get, especially around this time of the year.

I should add that my company is really great. The people are very nice. Trump is quite disliked. I was laid off suddenly from my last company so I kind of prepare myself just in case. Plus, I was at my old company for three years without a raise. I have been at this company for a year and they gave me a very nice raise. It is nice to feel appreciated.

Nothing like a raise to lift the spirits!

My whole Irish face is smiling.

And right before the holidays! Thanks for sharing your news with us.

I think even we here at DU can get a little tunnel-visioned about all of the bad news in the world. It's great to get pulled out of that for such a good reason! You should spoil yourself just a little this Christmas.

Congrats!

I like it when Dems do well!!!

Merry Christmas! Happy New Year! Happy Birthday!

And it even happened before the tax bill was passed!

Glad to hear it!

WY at to go. .
