The fourth Wednesday of every April is Administrative Professional Day. It used to be called Secretaries Day. But to be politically correct, the name was changed to better match the employee base.

The Brooks Group decided we would spend a week celebrating our support staff and their unbelievably important role for our sales team. Each day they received a special gift of some type. Most gifts included food of some sort- usually not of the healthy variety – along with other great gifts. It was a great week to recognize the best of the best!

On Wednesday, the official Administrative Professional Day, we offered a great lunch along with entertainment - a fabulous magician named Tim Dumas from Raleigh, NC.

What a total pleasure to watch a skillful talent reveal his art to a delighted staff. His ease of performance and engaging manner with our employees was such a gift. He has the knack for picking the most unlikely participant to do things you’d never believe they’d do…but they just simply do it for Tim! I don’t know if it’s Tim’s charming, persuasive ways or if it is pure peer pressure -but they always perform for him.

And, here is proof! You must check out one of our programmers, Alan Sharpe - yep, an IT guy - doing magic! It’s a bit called “Fantasy Magician.” Tim is standing behind Alan with Tim’s hands extended through the a cape that Alan is wearing. Watch Alan’s face as well as his magical hands. A star is born! Kudos to Alan for being such a good sport.

In a time when the world is full of stress we often feel there’s not much to laugh about. But then something special happens in your life to remind you of the precious gift of laughter. Thanks Tim, for sharing!
