Administrative Assistants Day

A couple weeks ago it was Administrative Assistants/Professionals Day. I had no idea until my boss came into my office and said "Happy Administrative Assistants Day!" and gave me this box of crazy expensive chocolates:

It's one of the sweetest things an employer has ever done for me and I was shocked in a good way. Here's a look at the chocolates inside:

One of them tasted like mouthwash, but aside from that they were delicious! Flavors included chocolate peanut butter, sea salt caramel and pineapple. Then a few days later my boss took everyone at our small firm out to lunch at a cute little pizza restaurant. The pizza was Mediterranean style over American/Chicago style, it was really good!

It was a beautiful day too so we got to sit outside. It reminded me of French restaurants where you can sit outside:

It had kind of a Moroccan flair. Gestures like that make all the difference in your work environment, and give you a better relationship with your boss. I was very appreciative.
