Showed the boss this last night...she was not impressed. As E.R. said above, my experience in the UT program at RMC was very similar wrt the support from the family. I certainly became the weird guy in the basement that came to bed sometimes. Quickest 3 years of my career though lol.
To show appreciation though...I'm pretty sure this is not the right way to do it. My mom might be tickled I suppose, but she didn't do it; Niner is still doing it now that I'm back in school again.
Buying a gong is not the way to do it. This is not a collectors edition commemorative coin. This is being advertised by PSP as a medal awarded by the government (hence the latest ad with the pic).
Now...if HRM (or said Canadian rep lol) would pen a quick note of appreciation to Niner..that might get some traction from her. It's not me that PSP has to convince this is a good thing...it's the spouses. And mine isn't interested in the least.
Not only in bad taste, but ineffectual as well (which is way worse).
