Just handed out the award for our 10,000th ticket!! One of my users is getting dinner on the company.
Wait... so, you reward users for bothering you on a regular basis?
Yep!
Especially considering if they ceased to bother us I'd cease to be employed.
There is a balance there. You can be bothered less and still maintain the same value to the company, to a point. That's the line you don't want to cross. Close isn't a bad thing though. You can always resort to mild sabotage if the balance is dangerously close to being upset. Just don't get caught.
Don't be giving out my secrets

Should be the other way around
-
Well at least it's somewhat random. Some user happened to generate the 10,000th ticket. At least it's not the user who has created the most tickets when the first 10,000 are tallied. Then it would be the company honoring that one user who's been the bain of your existence. They might as well be sticking a knife in your back and laughing about it.

Wait, wouldn't that be very much like @Minion-Queen giving @JaredBusch an award for being the most moderated ML user?

Truth hurts sometimes.
-
I feel that this thing may have somehow gone sideways. Has the joke been left a face-value, or has @JaredBusch now accepted his title as a challenge to be upheld?

Sideways? On ML? Not a chance.

Nah, if I took myself that seriously, I would deserve to have @DustinB3403 put us out of my misery

Honestly I'm not sure if that's really worse than being known as the Geek of the nerds (trading card).

LOL - yeah, it's all good - that was the first non Star Wars things I handed them out at - those reactions in person did change my approach to them.
This trip, only a gal I met in the Chicago airport got some. It was because she was wearing a Star Wars Marathon shirt and badge.

To be honest my inner nerd/geek (whichever you want to pick) wasn't fully developed yet. Now if I could find the one you gave me (I am sure I have it here somewhere) it would be on my wall of fame

hmmmm....
@art_of_shred what does this wall of fame look like? -
Knowing @art_of_shred (ok I don't really know this, but I've been told) the wall is made of 4 different kinds of wood with really cool inlays.

Most all of the minions are not from Vendors they are from all of you guys
I don't have any pics of anyone though
