I have posted the blog in Smile Corner. This being Friday, customers are lining up outside my shop to read blog as inside is completely full. They come here before going home or to the pub but they have all cancelled their plans to the pub. Some are asking me to take down the Christmas decorations but the priest reminded them that Smile has asked us to not do that. They are all feeling low but agreed that the decorations should stay. It is still a very sombre atmosphere here

We cancelled SWS today. Everyone was feeling very low. Some are reluctantly continuing on with the plans for Christmas.

We did go for our walk but similar sentiments in SWN also. Today's blog was discussed but when people realized that it is Friday and there are additional holidays due to Christmas, they felt even more depressed

I lost the race to post the blog in our corporate notice boards. I was pulling in the parking lot just as Craig and Jasmeet were going in the office. So probably lost by 1 minute
ReplyDeleteBrenda
Sorry, I didn't realize that you are just behind us otherwise would have waited for you.
DeleteI posted the blog right away as this is the first thing that we do

I did look behind when I was getting off the car but I guess I missed your car.

We had our Christmas lunch today. It was cancelled yesterday but we held it today because Smile asked us to carry on. Though we had the festive lunch but there was no festivity. No one was even smiling. Some had copies of Smile's Pandora's Box blog with them. They said that this is to pay respect to Smile. Though Smile asked us to turn on the switch we are not being able to. Everyone is feeling very low

ReplyDeleteDear Advisor,
ReplyDeleteWe read your blog and appreciated how you are able to juggle your busy schedule and go to the Christmas lunch probably with the mayor of your city and then go to your grandson's basketball game. All this within hours of each other.
The retirees have restarted the Christmas decorations and celebration however we are not enjoying it. One retiree mentioned that how can we enjoy when we know that you have endured so much.
The retired corporate executive is still being admonished by all for making you relive the challenging times. She has been crying at home but does come for readings out of respect to you. She keeps on asking for your forgiveness.
thank you
recent retiree
The retired corporate executive are
We held our last cabinet meeting today. We used the meeting to review some of your previous blog as they have been really helpful to us in crafting our policies, ranging from corporate managers' behaviour to effective presentations. We also raised a glass for you and thanked you for all your help and guidance to us
ReplyDeleteMerry Christmas

Dear Author,
ReplyDeleteWe read your blog at the SRC today. The Smile Army has decided to continue with the celebrations but they are doing this as a duty and not because they are enjoying it. Prof George and the Dean are visibly shaken up. They are trying to encourage everyone to continue with their celebrations but they themselves are heard that they are not going to celebrate. It is a very sad environment here. Dean was heard saying that only you can fix that but to do it, you will need a lot of mastery. But he said that he is confident that you can do it
thank you
