1. Why did you receive this week’s Special Helper ribbon?
I don't think I did anything to deserve that LOL but okay, I'll bite. Right. Yes. I helped my colleagues handle a situation with regards to a laptop that "wasn't working" and so they were running around like headless chickens looking for an alternative meeting venue with a working computer or calling up IT department to send someone to fix it but admittedly, calling IT department for help would take forever. It was a very simple case of not plugging in all the cables. I easily fixed their problem in less than 3 minutes and they were in awe. Yeah. I want a share of the IT field service's pay please.
2. Why did you receive this week’s Good Sport ribbon?
Not exactly sure the real intentioned meaning of "Good Sport" but I believe I've been a "good sport" when a certain colleague starts making unfunny jokes and tries to make fun of every situation. I smile politely when he does anything remotely Un-normal by work standards but my inner eyes are rolling.
3. Why did you receive this week’s Attentive Listener ribbon?
As a matter of fact yes. A friend was telling me some of her woes and while nobody can really help her, I think she just needed someone to rant to.
4. Why did you receive this week’s Good Manners ribbon?
I always have good manners! It's come to the situation where I've always been good mannered that people by default see me as good mannered and so will not reward me any ribbons. Instead, if I were normally bad mannered and suddenly turned good mannered, then they'll say good job and reward me. It's a flawed system!
5. Why did you receive this week’s Clean & Tidy ribbon?
Oh boy yes. I will write about it later, but I shopped for some new fountain pen inks (OH SO PRETTY!) and I just cleaned up my ink corner. *sparkly eyes* I love those new inks! I need to write more so I can use the inks!
