Well, Shannon, from all your previous posts you seem to have had respect for your job/work and frankly your spirited presentation should have conveyed your enthusiasm. I have no doubt this (under appreciated) effort has actually had an impact on how you feel about yourself, and this has had an affect on how you present yourself. This should carry your forward, onward, and upward in your next career step.
Congratulations, and so much affection to you! You are a true life mentor on the benefits of what a positive outlook can effect!
