[ENG/ESP] The surprise of my hardworking friends. Contest # 146
the author and the general manager
On April 11, my working life came to an end and coincidentally, that same day I celebrated my 60th birthday. Those of us who have worked for so long manage to establish bonds of friendship and sometimes they go beyond that and become that family that life did not give you by blood ties, but that become your family for life.
my work friends
I must say that many of my co-workers qualify in one of these denominations because we have laughed at occurrences or we have cried at the fatality of one of us. Together we have enjoyed the victories and suffered the setbacks that life puts in front of you.
In all these years I have never felt alone. My husband was out of the country for two years for work reasons and they were there when I needed a man to rest or a needed help.
a toast to friendship
These friends surprised me and gave me a retirement party that I did not expect and will be remembered for as long as I know.
On the last day of June 2023, I was summoned to my former place of work, under the pretext of having a problem that would affect my retirement. This would make me go without any excuse, to correct any mistake and guarantee a better economic pension. On the way to work I thought about what could be wrong and nothing came to my mind. When I get there I will see, I said to myself, and so I continued my journey to the place.
When I opened the address, the problem was revealed when my co-workers shouted: SURPRISE.
gifts
It was a surprise party for my 42 years of work. After the words of rigor the general manager gave me a cake that he cut with me, other coworkers gave me several gifts and at the end they told me: "This is a tribute that we wanted to pay tribute to my 42 years of work. This is a tribute we wanted to pay you. Now we invite you to tour a new work that we are going to inaugurate.
in the car
They put me in a car and when we arrived at the place, it was a recreation center, where all the conditions were created to spend an extraordinary evening. They looked for the things I like the most and provided it, as I am an inveterate dancer, they guaranteed a music system with all kinds of danceable rhythms.
I don't drink alcohol, but there was beer and the heat, the dancing, the party and the joy for the surprise I received made me drink a few beers.

In short, it was a special day full of emotions. When we finished the activity I left with sadness contained and tears in my soul because the effort of my colleagues to make me spend an incredible day had no limits.

I know you are not going to read this publication, but I share it so that you know how happy you can be with so little because beyond the material things that were there and the gifts that were given to me, the real and most important value was the affection of my friends in terms of my happiness.

ESPAÑOL
Ante todo, mis saludos para todos los miembros de esta comunidad y de manera especial a todas las damas que la enriquecen con sus historias de vida y experiencias.
la autora y el director general
El 11 de abril culminó mi vida laboral y casualmente, ese mismo día cumplí mis primeros 60 años. Los que hemos trabajado durante tanto tiempo logramos establecer lazos de amistad y, en ocasiones van más allá y se convierten en esa familia que la vida no te dio por lazos sanguíneos, pero que se hacen familia tuya para toda la vida.
mis amigos laborales
Debo decir que muchos de mis compañeros de trabajo califican en una de estas denominaciones porque hemos reído de ocurrencias o hemos llorado por la fatalidad de alguno de nosotros. Juntos hemos disfrutado de las victorias y hemos sufrido los reveses que la vida te pone enfrente.
En todos estos años nunca me he sentido sola. Incluso, por cuestiones de trabajo mi esposo estuvo fuera del país por dos años y ahí estuvieron cuando me hizo falta un hombre para descansar o una ayuda necesaria.
brindis por la amistad
Estos amigos me sorprendieron y me dieron una fiesta de jubilación que no me esperaba y será recordada durante tenga conocimiento.
El último día de junio de 2023 me citan para el que fue mi centro de trabajo, con el pretexto de tener un problema que afectaría mi jubilación. Esto me haría ir sin ninguna excusa, para subsanar cualquier error y garantizar una mejor pensión económica. De camino al trabajo pensaba en qué podría estar mal y nada venía a mi mente. Cuando llegue ya veré me dije y así seguía mi viaje hasta el lugar.
Cuando abrí la dirección ahí mismo se develó el problema cuando mis compañeros de trabajo gritaron: SORPRESA.
regalos
Era una fiesta sorpresa por mis 42 años de trabajo. Después de las palabras de rigor el director general me regaló un pastel que cortó conmigo, otros compañeros me hicieron varios regalos y al terminar me dijeron. Este es un homenaje que queríamos hacerte. Ahora te invitamos a recorrer una obra nueva que vamos a inaugurar.
en el automovil
Me montaron en un auto y al llegar al lugar era un centro de recreación, en el que estaban creadas todas las condiciones, para pasar una velada extraordinaria. Buscaron las cosas que más me gustan y la brindaron, como soy una bailadora empedernida garantizaron un equipo de música con todo tipo de ritmos bailables.
No consumo alcohol, pero había cerveza y el calor, el baile, la fiesta y la alegría por la sorpresa recibida me hicieron tomarme algunas cervezas.

En resumen, fue un día especial y lleno de emociones. Cuando terminamos la actividad me fui con tristeza contenida y lágrimas en el alma porque el empeño de mis compañeros por hacerme pasar un día increíble no tuvo límites.
bailando
Sé que ellos no van a leer esta publicación, pero la comparto para que sepan lo feliz que se puede ser con tan poco porque más allá de las cosas materiales que hubo y de los regalos que me hicieron el valor real y más importante fue el cariño de mis amigos en función de mi felicidad.
