We've been thinking a lot about city careers over here: how cities can attract great people to local gov professions, how city teams can ensure you feel valued and have what you need once you're hired, and how cities can make sure that skilled people want to stay in your careers once you hit your stride.
We know you're all asking the same questions, and in many cases taking meaningful action to ensure city workplaces are great workplaces.
— That doesn't always make the work any easier though, and that's where things like feeling valued, expressing gratitude, and saying thank you can make all the difference.
So, to each and every clerk who shows up and dedicates yourself each day to doing your best and representing your city with integrity, all of us here at the League say a huge THANK YOU. Your perseverance over the past few years in particular is something that we see and appreciate not just this week, but every week.
We sincerely hope that the variety, the people, the opportunities to learn something new every day, and contributing to good things in your community more than make up for those days when it all gets to be a bit much. And on those days when you need a boost, remember we're here to help however we can, because you're making a difference every day, and we like your style.
