Today is our COO, Janine Carpenter’s, birthday and I wanted to make a big deal of it as it’s a biggie – her 30th. I’ve worked with J9 for four years and have watched this dynamic woman grow from strength to strength and have seen her use her street smarts and great drive to achieve success. Janine, you rock as a boss and you’re one of our brightest Stars.

At the QuirkStation we try and do something special for birthdays and one of the things we do is get each Star gets to say why they love/like the birthday person. Here are some things that were said about Janine:

…I like you because you're the most approachable boss in the world.
…Janine you rock because you have a kind heart and a great mind
…I have a deep respect for you, mother to all, you are an awesome COO.
…Because you always put our needs ahead of yours
…For your unlimited love for animals - no matter how ugly they are!
…Cos you have Pug. It takes a special kind of person to love a creature with those looks.
... Cos you're a veggie but deep down we know you'd love a piece of tasty biltong
... Cos you're the office mom. You look after us. You should be in a Panado syrup ad…

I found this little piece on turning 30

So Janine, HAPPY 30th BIRTHDAY!
You Rock!
