Shoulder Pat
Almost as comforting as a mother's touch when you have the flu but as awkward as a penguin trying to balance itself on your shoulder just moments before losing its balance while waddling on land. A Quote from a leadership book found inside the commander’s office, “Daily physical contacts with your subordinate builds a culture of trust within your formation. This includes high five, awkward side hugs, or a comforting shoulder pat.”
Larry: “How many shoulder pats gave y’all gotten?”
Kyle and Jeffrey: “Way too many to count.”
Sarah: “I haven’t gotten any.”
