R-day

Today is R-day at work. This is because we billed out $1,000,000 this month. Highest billing in the history of Roberts. Congrats to us!! I walked in this morning to find an orange and purple bag sitting on my desk with a little pot of flowers. The bag contains two wine glasses, a stainless steel water bottle and a note of thanks.

Then, as I'm rummaging through the bag, I get my email up and running and there's a note from the CEO explaining what R-day is, what it means etc. Which is then followed by this:
