“Hi Mum, do you think you could bring my laptop in? I have forgotten it”. It’s a cold Thursday morning and in the busiest week in the retail year I have come into work 2 hours early to find that I have left my laptop at home.
Living 40 minutes away and looking at having to take face a 2 hour round trip now the morning traffic is building I am now not just looking at losing the benefits of getting up at 5:30am this morning but now being late for work entirely. To top off this nightmare I am asking my Mum (my husband doesn’t drive) to carry out the round trip on her day off and her only lie in of the week.
Working at a Voucher Code Website My Favourite Voucher Codes we supply the discounts and vouchers for over 1,600 merchants and we have to ensure that every merchant has every discount on the busiest day of the year. In turn we donate 20% of our profits to charity so we want to ensure that we earn the most money on the busiest day to donate to a worthy cause.
Nicky to the Rescue in her Onsie
So my Mum turns up outside our offices in Bath dressed in her teddy bear onsie, a big smile and a knowing smile that means I will be picking her up from the Theatre on Sunday at 11pm. So this week I am grateful for Mum because she Black Friday or not she always does what is needed to rescue me, even if I am 33 years old now.
Shout out to my Mum “Nicky Sandell” who is always the first person to offer to help you clean the house, empty your loft or pick you up from the airport. She works for the Civil Service and has done for 25 years dealing with some of the most horrific family cases with little thanks for hard work and gruelling cases. She loves her family and is always babysitting, offering a shoulder to cry on and generally being one of life’s good guys – So please raise a glass to “Nicky” My Super Mum in her own superhero onsie!
