Hanging Up My Name Tag

Today was a wonderful day. It was my last day of work at the museum where I've worked for the last eleven weeks. It was my last time telling people where the bathroom was. My last time chasing people down who didn't pay admission. My last time telling people that their dogs are not allowed inside the museum {I mean seriously, it's a museum people!}. My last time answering weird questions from tourists. My last time listening to sea shanties {Hallelujah!}. So needless to say I was a little excited.

I did learn two important things this summer. The first being that I can make friends solely by providing baked goods. People are really nice to you when you make brownies slathered in peanut butter frosting. I'm sure this will come in handy later in life.

The second thing I learned is that I got to work with some of the best people this summer. My coworkers were so much fun. We spent most the days joking around and teasing one another. I'm lucky to have had such a great work environment for my first real big girl job. We celebrated with cupcakes and brownies, and they even let me make the closing announcements at the end of the day. Man did I feel powerful. I see why they didn't let me do it before hahaha. They made the day very special and I am so thankful for such a great last day. 

So I have officially hung up my name tag. Well, I'll probably throw it in a drawer or something so it isn't really hung up, but you get the picture. But I promised to come visit so that can't get rid of me too easily. 

So CRMM, it's been real.
