Oh my, is this all for me?
Surprise! We didn’t want you to leave without us first showing you how much we’re going to miss you.
You guys are the best. Thank you. I’m going to miss all of you, too!
Everyone, please raise your glasses. I would like to propose a toast.
You guys! I think I’m going to cry!
Kim, we appreciate you and the work you have done over these past three years.
You have always put our customers and staff at ease with your friendly personality.
You have been an ideal employee, and we have been fortunate to work with you all of this time.
And we wish you all the best in your future.
Thank you, David. I would like to say a few words, if I could.
Of course, go ahead.
Well, I first started at this hotel three years ago.
At that time, I was planning to waitress for only one summer because I had already applied to several college programs.
But as you all know, one summer turned into three, and this job changed my life.
It helped me decide on business management for a career, and all of you helped me reach that decision.
I’m glad to hear that.
I just want to say that I really enjoyed working with you guys.
You have been the best colleagues, and I will miss all of you very much.
We will miss you too. To Kim.
Thank you.

What are some ideal ways for companies to appreciate their employees?

Many employees mention workplace parties when asked to define what makes a workplace fun.

In fact, celebrations have become a normal part of company culture in many workplaces.

From birthdays to holidays to baby showers, celebrations are a great way for employers to show how much they appreciate their employees.

Take James and Laura, for example, who are project managers at a local tech company.

Last summer, they felt completely at ease on a rented boat because their company had
organized an employee appreciation event.

During this event, James and Laura got to experience a two-hour sailing trip around
the San Francisco Bay.

And Laura still recalls the surprise baby shower her co-workers threw for her when
she was pregnant with her twin girls.

Her boss proposed a toast to her, which nearly moved her to tears.

While workplace parties are fun, studies have also shown that employee appreciation is one of the major reasons why workers stay at a company.

Hi, you’re a new employee, right? Would you like to join us?

Sure.

Go ahead and take a seat. We were just discussing the best cities in Germany. Do you have an opinion on that?

I don’t really know a lot about Germany to be honest.

I don’t either, but I realized this was because I’d never been to Germany before. So, I’ve decided to take a trip there this fall.

That sounds really fun. Two of my friends are travelling in Europe right now. I thought their flight prices were very high, but I realized it was because they had bought tickets during the holidays.

Yes, that often happens. I think the ideal time to travel is when everyone else is working. That way the prices are cheaper.
