Fwd: [Quar] Thank you!

This made my day and I thought I would share with the group, so you know you have a friendly person to reach out to at Kumon HQ. 

Regarding insurance, we also use our current Business Policy (fire etc.) insurance provider (State Farm) for Workman's Comp (as a caution to all, I had forgotten to take Workman's Comp for 10 years and then one of the graders was rocking backwards on the Marius stool and fell and hit her head on the table. We called an ambulance  and paid for the MRI and all hospital costs. Expensive lesson...luckily it was not serious and amounted to the total of 10 years premium that I should have paid!).

Subject: RE: [Quar] Thank you!

Good morning, Bala,

Thank you very much!  I would also like to say the same about you.  You were essentially the Superman of the training group!  I don't think I've ever met anyone as popular as you within any group of trainees.  Your bubbly personality, combined with your sense of humor, willingness to help your fellow trainees with CMS2 deep into the night, and your generosity -- all these traits & characteristics you displayed last week would have resulted in you winning "The Most Popular"-Award if Start-Up Training were a high school class (haha).

Also, thank you again for paying for our drinks and my dinner.  The next time you come to the Kumon University facility, please keep in mind that we will be the one to pay for you.  Remember, you're the guest!  Not us!

Oh, and please feel free to send any PFs in my direction.  Haha.

See you soon, sir!

Maz
