4…3…2…1…Happy New Year!

The other day someone asked me what my New Year’s Resolution is going to be for 2012—a little premature, I agree. I’ve never believed in New Year’s Resolutions. Maybe it’s because something like 90% of people fail at them. Maybe it’s because I despise the influx of people that make me wait for a treadmill during the month of January before they give up on their newfound goals. Or perhaps it’s just because I’m still recovering from my New Year’s Eve birthday to even bother with the idea. Alas, I tried to think of something.

I started thinking about my work at PUNCH. Oh, thinking about work—what else is new? But, instead of thinking about what I could do in my next year at work, I started thinking about what PUNCH could do to improve itself. No, I don’t think we need to exercise more. You might remember us demonstrating how active we can be in our team softball day earlier this fall. PUNCH definitely doesn’t need to set any rules about eating better in the coming year. We just moved to Shockoe, and set our mission of finding new lunch spots into high gear. I’m looking at you, City Dogs!

All jokes aside, my New Year’s Resolution for PUNCH is to keep doing PUNCH. Keep being a team that acts more like a family, is proactive about whatever adversity comes its way, and always wants to have fun at work. Keep having goofy dress up days that may be only funny to us. And, whatever you do, don’t stop throwing the best holiday parties in office-party history. I haven’t been at PUNCH that long, but I can tell, whatever we’re doing, we’re doing it right!
