The Executive Director of the rescue mission requested my Meal Ministry report to present to the Board.
Offering new topics for every report, I am not one to restate previously said topics. Monthly financials has statistically proven I have reduced the "cost per meal" by $.12 beating the previous years growing average; in addition, the numbers of dinner guests has drastically increased (1300 meals more on average per month).
Competitive-nature'd me could not be more excited!
I meet with our Accountant monthly to review, glow and do happy dances over continued outcomes.
My email to the Executive Director:
I have an addition to the Meal Ministries Board Report, that may sound braggadocious, but it shows great progress!
...
Respectfully submitted,
Dawn
Executive Directors email reply:
It could have been thought periphrasis by some or even tendentious but never braggadocious. In fact, I dare say you would have been pusillanimous not to put it forth.
Well said and in my mind I have a new found respect for his wit and grammar usage, even if I have to refer to dictionary.com for translation.
