David Our Super Star!

David is freshly back from his company's annual kick-off event in Dallas. Every March, Cognos hosts a HUGE (thousands of employees) event to start the new fiscal year and recap the past one as well as reward top performers.

David has been to six and has gotten an award every single year! This year tops them all. He received the Eclipse award which in addition to the recognition that comes with the designation - he also gets an all expenses paid trip to Montego Bay, Jamaica for himself and a guest (c'est moi!). I think we may actually get to go since the trip is in June between class sessions for David, and I am working on getting coverage for the boys. It will be so nice (not only because it is FREE), but because we weren't planning to get a vacation this year while David is in school.

Even better than that though...I know what you are thinking - what can be better than that!!! Well, David also received the award for North American Services Manager of the Year!!! WOW! Not to say he doesn't deserve these accolades, but it is so refreshing to work for a company that actually acknowledges hard work and accomplishment.

Congratulations David

As if that wasn't a big week for him...he is in class Thursday, Friday and Saturday this weekend...and he is at the mid-point for his frist term (there are 4 terms total). He is getting some results back and found out that he got a 100 on is Decision Analysis test, and an 82 on his HUGE Accounting exam that counts for 45% of his grade. YEAH David.
