Subject:Re: Slightly OT: Creative gift to team for meeting beta date From:"Laura A Mac Lemale" <lmaclemale -at- paychex -dot- com> To:"TECHWR-L" <techwr-l -at- lists -dot- raycomm -dot- com> Date:Tue, 24 Jul 2001 16:43:22 -0400
Hi all,
This is not intended to start an OT discussion of gift ideas, but I wanted to share a recent experience.
This Monday, a project that our team has been working on for more than a year advanced to beta testing. (yay!) This is significant because, as many of you may relate to, the projected beta date "way back when" was scheduled to be much earlier this year.
Anyway, for making our beta test date, several of us received a "beta" fish (really spelled "betta," it's a Siamese fighting fish) in a mini aquarium. (Mine is a colorful little blue guy with red streaks.)
TW tie in: I thought I would share this, as we TWs sometimes discuss the art of creative gift-giving for helpful SMEs and teammates.
Again, this is not to start an OT discussion on-list, but feel free to respond to me off-list. Thanks and have a great day!
Laura
