[quote=Anonymous]I am an MCPS staffer and I appreciate praise and recognition from people I respect and who know what I do in my job. That makes it meaningful. It means the world to me when a colleague, or my immediate supervisor, or a parent, shares praise or appreciation for something I've done. I have a little binder where I've saved thank you cards from families or emails that I've gotten, and I look at it sometimes when I'm feeling down. Being subjected to a dog and pony show from a superintendent I don't particularly like or respect would feel like performative garbage and would be mortifying. To be singled out from among colleagues who work just as hard if not harder would be totally embarrassing. I am happy for the deserving staffers who get recognized but this feels like putting lipstick on a pig.[/quote]
