zoner of the week
Posted by timezoneone
This Friday or all Fridays, at this end of this week, of all weeks, it seems appropriate to resurrect the Zoner of the Week.
For me Zoners have the following traits:
-Â A Can Do attitude
-Â Fun and energetic
-Â A desire to exceed expectations
-Â A willingness to learn as we go
-Â Open and positive
-Â Ego-less
These add up to extraordinary. It is a choice to act like this and we make this choice. Ordinary is not welcome.
This is our esprit de corps. Our mojo. And I am proud be part of a team that embraces these values.
With this in mind the Zoner of the Week goes to ALL our team, nationwide and coast to coast. In this pressure packed deadline demanding week I believe we all looked carefully at ourselves and asked ‘how can I make this better’?
Rich even bought coffee.
Next week will also have it’s challengers but we are now better equipped.
Welllll done, and thanks.
ENTERCATION
As we are all a bit brain-drained it might be likely that we miss that opportunity for a clever comeback
For example, if Churchill had been tired when Mrs Braddock said to him ‘Sir, you are drunk’, he may have replied ‘Doh’, and it might have been several hours before he thought of the rather keen comeback ‘Madam, you are ugly. In the morning, I shall be sober.’
In French there is a rather nice expression for coming up with a clever comeback when it is too late…’l'esprit de l’escalier’
Entercationally speaking this means ‘stairway wit’.
