I wanted to say thank you to everyone who created this site and thank you to everyone who contributes to this site. I am learning something new everyday it seems. :)
 
I totally agree with you. It is so great to be a part of a group that even though we are in business for ourselves, we certainly are not by ourselves. We all share info to help each other excell in this business.

Welcome to a great team!
 
I keep sharing ideas with my Director, and when tells me how great they are, I just say 'yeah, Chef Success; I'm not original." :D :love:
 
It's been a wonderful blessing to me. I know I've learned things here that have helped me in my business.
 
I'll have to chime in and thank everyone too. Everyone's generosity and ideas found here still excite and amaze me. :D
 
Me too!! Since I have been a part of CS, way back at its inception, I have never not learned something. The most important things I have learned though are more about me than the business. I think by communicating our problems, we can see in our own direction. Introspective research I call it! I may have typed it but when I go back and read it, I read like you all do. Boy is that eye opening!! Good, bad or otherwise, it sure sheds a lot of light in to my own attitude. Some times it really stinks to see that part of your self but hey, if you do not see it, you sure as heck can't fix it! It helps too you all point it out! We need that! So thank you Greg and Debbie! (DebPC that is!)
