Summary: |
I first received notice that I had been
chosen for this award in a letter ...
which I opened during a staff meeting.
I scanned the letter, reading quickly,
and didn’t take it seriously. I thought
it was a message saying something
equivalent to “I had won some land in
Florida.†But as the meeting dragged
on, I reread the letter and clearly understood
what it was saying. To be
honored by the people who directly
benefit from the lobbying efforts is better
than winning land. |
