Show Appreciation To Your Boss in These Tough Economic Times
Fall is upon us and with it comes cooler temperature, colorful leaves and that all important holiday….National Bosses Day. It’s time to show a little appreciation for the person that leads us through the daily work battles and signs the all important paycheck.
During these tough economic times, most of us are realizing how lucky we are to have jobs. Many bosses are under a lot of pressure to keep profits afloat without laying off employees or closing the doors altogether. Despite all the “boss” jokes, most of them are honest and fair and try to create a good working environment.
Just over 50 years ago Patricia Bays Haroski created this holiday to honor her boss at State Farm Insurance, a man who just happened to be her father. She picked October 16th because it was his birthday and four years later it was declared a National Holiday.
At McAdams Floral we have a few suggestions that are proven to make even the grumpiest boss feel appreciated. Our famous beer, wine cooler and snack baskets are at the top of the list. After all, the way to a bosses’ heart is through his stomach. Of course we also have an array of beautiful bouquets along with fresh green and blooming plants for the home or office. We can tailor any of these suggestions to the bosses’ personality and hobbies and also to the size of your budget. You don’t have to spend a fortune to show them they’re appreciated. Or you can pool several employees’ resources to give them something more extravagant.
In the end, it really is the thought that counts. So on Boss’s Week, October 12th thru the16th, take comfort in the fact that you have a job (10% current unemployment) and say thanks to the person who helps you bring home the bacon.
