#2 on the list of nicest things people have done for me... This goes to Tom and the promotion dinner, which made Tom's top 6 list of best dinners. I was probably one of the last, if not THE last, person in my new hire class to be promoted. So when it happened, it was that much more sweeter. Tom, along with Dave, Jim, and many others, continued to give me encouragement and a chance to vent throughout the winding road that has been my career.
Tom suggested celebrating at the Precinct, an upscale steak place. It was great to be able to get Dave and Jim (and their spouses) all at the Precinct that night. Karen was 8.9999999999 months pregnant at the time, which actually worked in our favor because that meant she couldn't schedule any outings and therefore was available on short notice. So we were able to get some good company!
To top it off, we were somehow given a private room with service fit for kings. I believe when Tom made the reservation, he mentioned it was for a promotion. We speculated maybe they thought some newly anointed CEO was celebrating with a dinner there. Nevertheless, it was a great dinner with great friends. Thanks to Tom for having the thought to set it up!
