In the realm of all holidays, Thanksgiving is my favorite. It’s a no pressure day (even when I’m cooking) because there are no gifts to buy, no fancy clothes to wear, and a day when taking a nap is not frowned on. It’s time to focus on thankfulness at work and at home. A time to pause and say thanks to customers and employees alike. You can ignore political, ethnic, and religious constraints and truly focus on appreciation.
