The name has been changed for anonymity.
Years of pragmatic approach towards understanding human nature had been useless to understand this particular and wonderful human being who I am proud to say is my manager.
She has a perfect sense of humour while entertaining a group of audience. She has the greatest virtue of patience when teaching her beloved colleague how to use Oracle for the umpteenth time and above all she has been in the same role for 18 years. Her famous drawback as explained was that she lacks personal skills and does not have enough managerial experience (which I know are lame).
This woman can do wonders on Access and can create most complex databases using her years of wisdom. She can make reports fly from a click of mouse from the extensive data dating ten years back. Above all she strives every minute of her life to make others happy. Working with her for two months had taught me not to work for a pay check but for self satisfaction.
Coming to the story of the Tea cosy, we recently moved offices and now we have our own little room for Team DQV (Data quality validation) with Eva as our lead and two other colleagues along with moi. It was the greatest achievement of Eva to have an office of our own. We decided to have our own social area rather than going to the pantry every now and then. So we designed our little tea corner with a Kettle, a bag of tea and a tea pot. It only made sense to have a Tea cosy as Neville our only male team member expressed his concern.
The next day there appeared a tea cosy with the team logo (Garfield) on it. It is a shame that we did not know about her accomplishments as a Bag maker, Embroidery master, Great Chef (we have tasted some of her great fresh breads) and above all a Writer. She is a master criminal mind who writes Murder mysteries and makes people enact them at a buffet dinner party at her chalet bungalow during summer.

One cannot help but notice her workmanship and attention to detail with this master piece. Kudos to an eminent personality and great individual!!!
