Employee Morale
Co-Worker Appreciation Day
Contributed by Sheila Berrey
I wanted to pass on to you what our company does to give a vehicle to employees to say thank you to each other.
We have a Co-Worker Appreciation Day once a year and we provide some fun activities and forms for them to write some kind words to a co-worker.
This year we’re using a card with a candy bar attached. Each employee gets one at the beginning of the day, and they are asked to write a kind note of thanks on the card and give it and the candy bar to a deserving co-worker.
We also have a “Way To Go O’Gram” form available throughout our company, all year long, for impromptu thank you’s for employees to use.

Joke of the Week
One of our packaging machines broke down, and no one could figure out why. The manufacturer sent a technician, who looked at the machine for five seconds, then tightened a bolt. And it ran.
He handed me a bill for $150, and when I questioned the charge, he explained,
“I charged you $5 for tightening the bolt; finding the right bolt to tighten cost you $145.”
