Not many of us love our jobs. We may like what we do but few of us jump out of bed every morning excited about going into work. I sort of fell into the job I'm in, and I've been with the same company for over a decade now. The pay is decent, the hours are good, and my position is pretty stable considering that our company relies on the development community. But what really makes my job enjoyable are my co-workers. With horrible co-workers, even a dream job can become a nightmare. I'm lucky and have had some awesome co-workers.

Today is just a small example of how awesome and giving my co-workers are at my job. JC brought the office breakfast tacos this morning and also brought for my lunch some leftover tortilla soup (with all the fixings) that he made last night. It was delicious!



Then, this afternoon, I was craving something cold and creamy like ice cream or a smoothie. I posted this on my Facebook page, and JC saw it and spread the word. Soon the entire CAD department was contributing money for an ice cream run. I had enough money to buy us 2 cartons of ice cream (one type for floats and another for those who wanted a sundae), Coke, Oreos, and drumsticks. We still had some leftover toppings from our last ice cream social so I didn't have to buy any of that. The Coke float I had definitely hit the spot.


The guys here are so friendly and helpful. I love hanging out with them in and out of the office. Co-workers make working fun.
