By the fourth paragraph the orchestra music should have swelled loudly to play him off. Hope he finds a nice place in his trophy case for the $10 Starbucks card that was the actual award.

This person thinks they’re delivering an Oscar speech. Someone should remind them that ✨ nobody cares ✨

Did you see ALL THE NAMES I had to blank out? This is a 300 person startup, OP pretty much had everyone mentioned.
I literally saved my company a couple hundred thousand dollars one time. Didn't even get a thank you. LOL.
But I'll tell you what--if I had gotten some recognition, I sure as hell wouldn't post about it on LinkedIn like that.

I quadrupled my department’s revenue over the last 18 months. Target was a 30% yoy improvement. My boss gave me a $2000 hike AND a $45 Amazon gift card. I think I deserve a LinkedIn post lol.
I assume he works for the US Army and was awarded the Medal of Honor. Nothing short of that deserves this level of celebration.
Omg THAT is truly the most cringe. Amazing.

Seriously though, how much money did he get with the award? Must have been six figure award, otherwise...

This is a monthly award. No monetary component attached. My EA literally changes the name on a ppt template and sends it out to our distribution list.

The award

To those wondering what the award is, it’s called the GEM award - Going the Extra Mile. This person came into work 2 hours early on a workday to test if 6 demo computers were working before an event on that day. We routinely give this to folks who do something extra every month. This award has no monetary value. I get people being grateful for recognition, but this is just some next level detachment from reality.

How were they able to post it with a straight face, while I am dying of second hand embarrassment just by looking at it?😩
How will they ever top that next year?? The bar has been raised. Stuff dreams are made of… 🤮

lol this is akin to an employee of the month award but at the department level without any monetary compensation. Every department hands this out as recognition, EVERY MONTH. There are people with 20 of these.
