Why? Well, after telling her I loved her too (it felt like a moment you couldn't leave someone hanging), she explained. Apparently, this change I added to the system has made her life so much easier. She went on to tell me how it has made adding 20+ items so much simpler and she LOVES this change.
It made me feel really good to hear that - one of the things I love is being able to help others and this just helps solidify my reserve that I'm doing what I love. At my last job, products were so slow to release, I would never really hear customers' comments. Since I'm working on an internal tool here, I'm starting to hear "customers" (i.e. coworkers who use the system) and I'm loving it.
This is why I love working on the front end & business logic/middle tier.
Yours,
