Being New

One cool thing about being new is that everyone is so nice to you. I have been at the town for exactly a month and a half and people are still super nice to me. I am getting invited to retirement parties and ice-cream socials and other end of the year stuff. In fact, the town’s library director used to have her own catering business. She retired and wrote a cook book. I was fascinated by this and she left the pizza party for a few minutes. She returned with a copy of her book and she signed it for me.
Its little things like that which make a big difference in the over all experience of the organization. I hope you all have had similar experiences and also try to make experiences like these for new people when you are part of your future work.
