📊 Me Day Proposal: Celebrate or It Didn’t Happen

Date: 19 August 2025
From: Office of Emotional Wellbeing
To: Director of Self Love
Subject: Pilot Initiative – Departmental Me Day

Dear Director

While we commend your recent academic accomplishments, our audit has flagged a serious performance gap: the lack of proper celebration for your postgraduate graduation (GPA 6.75). This oversight threatens team morale and requires urgent corrective action.

Proposal:
The Director must allocate resources (time, chocolate, maybe sparkling water) to commemorate this milestone properly. A celebration — internal or external — is now mandatory.

Rationale:
Celebration is not indulgence; it is recognition of compounded perseverance. To achieve a GPA of 6.75/7.00 is to set a benchmark for excellence within the Department. Failure to celebrate risks setting a precedent that extraordinary effort will be quietly filed under “Next Task.”

Perceived Benefits:

  • Reinforces morale and resilience across all departments.
  • Signals to staff that milestones are worth honouring, not just surviving.
  • Provides psychological closure and fuels sustainable motivation.

Implementation Examples (if approved):

  1. Director enjoys a decadent slice of cake just because. All departments record morale spikes of +200%.
  2. A celebratory dinner outing occurs. Photos are taken. When viewed later, the Director realises: “Oh yes, I did achieve that. It mattered.”

In pursuit of balanced KPIs,
Office of Productivity & Purpose
“Celebration is not optional—it’s a metric.”
