Sorry. Not meaning to be vague.
Service awards are given at 2 or 3 (that was added after my 2 o3), 5, 10, 15, 20, 25 and so on.
I will get my award. It's given from HR, and they do not forget. It will be a $250 tiffanys gift certificate. I'm not complaining about anything above.
At my department meeting, my VP called on the direct-reports (Directors, managers, etc.) to verbally recognize those receiving/attaining 5/10/15/20.... years of service. My boss's boss overlooked verbally mentioning my 15 years of service.
It just bugs me that s/he (I'll spare the gender) did not recognize me. A coworker said that I should interrupt the meeting myself to point that out. I'm not that type of person. My immediate boss was out on vacation today. That is likely the largest factor in this.
Either way, I took it as a personal slight.
