With 2009 slipping into the past, it will be a year that many would wish to forget. Economically, our country almost went completely down the tubes and people began wearing masks out of a blind fear of the swine flu. We saw some athletes fall from grace, and watched New Jersey look as rotten as a year old strawberry. We stood by and watched the world become enamored with stories like 'Balloon Boy', or sat in front of our computers for hours on end watching YouTube videos that make us sad to be human. We discovered what it is to Tweet and how important it is, apparently, to tell the world what we’re doing at any given moment. We watched banks cling to the governments and, with open hands, ask for money because they didn’t know where all theirs went. The American auto industry became a relic of the 50’s and left car execs asking what happened and how?
Despite the many flaws 2009 delivered to our world, we must use it to motivate us toward a better 2010. We could easily sit here and sulk about what happened, or we could band together and raise our great country back to excellence. Companies like The TNS Group are locally owned and locally supported with clients and employees in the greater NYC area.
We should use companies like TNS as a beacon guiding us out of the treacherous squalls we find ourselves in. While it is easy to listen to the talking heads on television and not leave the house for the next five months, it would not be the American way. America has found itself at this crossroad before, and was able to pull itself up and move on to better times.
As the year turns we should keep our chins up and move forth with courage into the future. I am confident that TNS reflects a forming national trend, and will continue to grow and prosper as the earth turns one year older. Let us hope the attitudes of hard work, dedication, and sincerity present here at TNS become contagious.
Let’s go get it in 2010 TNS. I know we can do it!
