So I gather my favorite suit with tie and dressed for the 60th
Anniversary Celebration and 29th Annual Employee Recognition Night,
of the Wanna-Be-Bank & Truss
Co., the gala affair being held at the popular local catering hall: Villa
Lumbago’s.
TLW, Tatiana and Cristina |
TLW (The Little Woman) was getting recognition for working
there for ten years at the Wanna-Be-Bank & Truss Co., so I too for the first time was
invited to attend along with other spouses.
The Branch 'Mamma' Theresa |
At this auspicious occasion was a number of people that I
mentioned before, and included TLW’s immediate boss Cynthia and her boss the Branch Momma: Theresa, who asked that NO
dancing on the tables would occur this evening like years past, we were not to
embarrass her, and: “Ellen, make sure you keep a tight leash on what’s his
name, unless he is making a deposit AND has the money in his hand to back it
up!” Tough woman!
Cynthia 15 years |
It promised to be a celebrity filled evening, and it was,
except they all had better things to do. There was however, Mr. Gallon, the big
enchilada, Mr. Halfgallon, second in command, and V.P.’s scattered throughout
the room. Mr. Gallon gave an emotional appeal and stirring speech about being
quiet when people are up on the podium, while being in the shadows!
The Princess Pat of Foxwood Points was in attendance and was not
feeling well. She was feeling dizzy, and THIS time we think we can blame it on
flying from a recent trip she took.
The booze line was VERY long, and as I left my house and got
into the car,the line started and I realized it was! I can explain that, the booze was
free. The Bow tie Man came with the lovely Danielle, Mr. Fix-it with the lovely
Corinne, and Princess Pat with the lovely Bill, who out of pity brought me
substance of bread and water on the booze line while I aged waiting to place a
drink order!
Lois (Toots II) Lenny (Bow Tie Man) and Danielle |
At the tables there were conversations about the L-50 loans
and of course the popular L-28, along with the philosophy of educated consumers
and embezzlement possibilities. Toots II (Lois), stated she was going on
vacation next week, and TLW said she is always going on vacation, in which I
said: “Lois, you CAN’T retire in January, you will miss all the vacations!” It’s
true you know.
Doug (Mr. Fix-it) Corinne, Princess Pat and Bill |
In actuality it was a very nice affair, the people seemed to
be very happy and the company really does appreciate those that work for it, a
great cocktail hour and dinner with drinks. There was a champagne toast and we
were allowed to take home the glasses, but not the silverware.
It is very successful as a credit union and very well run by
those in charge. I think after this Blogue however, they may not appreciate me
though.
