A Note to Other Non-Profits

I am very fortunate to work for a company with a very impressive community relations program. Through our Employee Business Resource Groups (EBRGs) we can request AAdvantage mileage sponsorships. I'm the manager sponsor of our INT Pride chapter and we've secured sponsorships for prideWS, OUT at the Movies, and RiverRun. 

You've also heard me talk about the Do Crew, which is our volunteer program. As part of that program, when I reach a total of 50 volunteer hours, the company will send 25,000 AAdvantage miles to a non-profit of my choice. Theatres and theatre programs are my usual choice to receive my volunteer gift. 

OUT at the Movies and RiverRun have been the most appreciative of any of the numerous non-profits I've worked or volunteered. Time after time, Rex has sent letters, notes, and emails thanking American Airlines for the miles and thanking me for my time. Taking time out of a busy day to draft a letter or send a handwritten note is priceless. For those non-profits that have benefited from miles or my volunteer time, and who wonder why my contributions ceased, this post is for you. A "thank you" goes a long way.

Skyview Orientation Guide

American Airlines has a brand new headquarters in Dallas, Texas. It's called Skyview and I hear it is very pretty. (I haven't been there yet, but am looking forward to going!)

Employees can download the Skyview Orientation Guide. And when they do, there I am on the cover!

Happy Father's Day

 Happy Father's Day to my dad, who raised me to be independent and strong. There have been many times that my independence put me at odds with him, but I wouldn't be the person I am today without his love and guidance.


Some of his wisdom included:
- When driving in the snow or ice, be patient and let the car do the work.
- If you can anticipate the needs of others, you will be invaluable.
- If you can't tell it's poison ivy by the 3 shiny leaves, stay away from the woods!
- Relationships are not 50-50. One is always going to give a little more or take a little more. Make sure you know where you stand.
- No matter how old you are, you will always be my little girl and I will love you always.

Profound Quote

I'm in Dallas today to attend our Vice President's annual meeting. Some of the speakers had some very flat presentations. (Thank goodness the room was a bit on the chilly side. If I'd been warmer I might have fallen asleep!) A couple of the presentations were very dynamic. I particularly enjoyed the internal marketing of American's "WHY?" (And I have to admit, I did get a bit teary eyed during the presentation. I so love working for American Airlines!)

One of my favorite speakers from last year was back again. Thomas Rajan is the Managing Director for Talent Strategy and People Development. His presentations are always smart, interesting, creative and just phenomenal. I would love to sit down with him and just talk.

This year he included this quote from Alvin Toffler that just resonated with me.

Snowpocalypse 2018

While it was very disappointing having to leave Sam and NYC sooner than we wanted, I am grateful Cade and I were able to make it back to NC. Had we not made the flight last night, we would have had to remain in NYC for several days! 

I've been watching the Weather Channel, and one of their reporters is in downtown Winston-Salem. According to reports, we got 14 inches of snow.

Mom and Bill haven't seen snow at their house in years. They are always in Florida during the winter season. She was a bit envious.
