A few months ago at work, my friend Lisa and I attended a meeting with a new co-worker from another department to provide some project background and offer some basic assistance. I of course brought cookies to the meeting.

Earlier today by the elevators at work, Lisa ran into that same co-worker from the other department. In the course of conversation, the other person asked Lisa, “What is the name of your co-worker (a.k.a. me)? He’s the best!”

Yep, that’s right folks. I’m the best! Carve it in stone. Put it on the ol’ resume. Now, it’s official.

My secret? Always start a meeting with cookies on the table.
