Warm Fuzzy: When You Hear People See You The Way You Want Them To

May 27, 2014

Uuuuuh, is this worth a blog post? I’m unsure… because I think it maybe sort of sounds braggy or something.

But I was so happy, I wanted to write about this.

Right now, I working a wonderful, amazing, fabulous job. I love it. I love it so much. I’m really lucky I landed this gig.

Small side story: I actually talked, in a reflect-y way, not that long ago about starting a new job. If you think this is that one, you would be mistaken. That one was the worst one I’ve ever worked in my life, which is a story for a whole ‘nother day. But the one I’m at now is beautiful and brilliant. It makes my life easier, and I just love it.

I’m working as a post-production coordinator for a new TV show (coming to you this October). Even though we still have plenty of work to do in post, we recently finished wrapping production. The production people were kind enough to invite the post staff to their awesome wrap party… which happened to be just a block away from my apartment!

Yee haw. How much easier could it possibly get?

It was held on a Thursday night, (and it wasn’t all that convenient to where we work). So, a number of people opted not to go. However, a small group of us represented the post side of things.

At work the following day, I happened to overhear some people in the hallway talking about the party. Some of the non-partygoers were asking how it went.

And this is the great part where my heart gets all warm and gooey. The people who did go mentioned, “Aurora was the perfect person to go with. She is so outgoing and absolutely loves meeting new people. She’s not afraid to introduce herself to anyone. She truly doesn’t care what anyone’s job title is. She will talk to any person in the place. And she was a great icebreaker to have around.”

How sweet, right?

I know. I know. I shouldn’t be all up on this blog saying, *hair flip* aren’t I just great and sweet and outgoing and such? But it was so nice to have people saying all the things I hope I am… to hear that people just objectively thought that, with no prodding – even when as far as they knew, I wasn’t around – I was just touched and happy. *smile*

I'd love to hear from you! So whaddya say?
