Today, February 15th, is Staff Appreciation Day!
In honor of the day we just wanted to take a moment and tell you how much we appreciate you and how important you are to us!
There is no one on the University of Florida campus who knows your residents even half as well as you do. And since we know that your residents often do not thank you for all you do –
we wanted to say thanks for:
Quieting down the floor at 11:00pm so that someone could study better and get an “A” on their next days exam – because of you they were a more successful student.
For opening your door to that tearful person and letting him/her pour their heart out, even though you really just wanted to go to sleep – because of you they felt less alone.
For changing on-calls with your colleague and being a positive and helpful part of the staff team – because of you, we felt more like a family.
For showing up to start with – without you there would be no one to tie your residents to the rest of the building or the Gator Nation–
because of you, they are a community.
For the hundreds of tiny (and not so tiny) things that you do on a regular basis that no one ever gets to see. We thank you so much and hope that you know what a HUGE difference you make in the lives of your residents and fellow staff members – without you, we would all be so much less!!!!
We feel very fortunate to be able to work with you and are
glad that you are a part of the Housing Family!
With our Thanks and Respect,
scott!
