For those of you who might not be aware, yesterday was the last post for Laurie Ruettimann over at Punk Rock HR. I’m sure it was a bittersweet moment for Laurie. She created Punk Rock HR and had been publishing it for a very long time.
Laurie was one of the first people to welcome me to the HR blogging community. She’s let me ask lots of stupid questions and whenever I need a favor she always says yes. I’m eternally grateful.
One of the signature items over at Punk Rock HR was a Shout Out feature. It only seems fitting to give Laurie a shout out for all of the time and energy she’s given over
the years. I certainly won’t forget her HR Bartender tribute with the McNuggetini. (ha!)
But I’m very excited for Laurie and her new entrepreneurial endeavor, New Media Services. And, I look forward to reading her advice and adventures over at The Cynical Girl. Be sure to check them out.
Laurie – many thanks for all you do. Cheers!

Hi! I'm Sharlyn Lauby, an HR pro turned consultant. I created the HR Bartender blog so people would have a friendly place to discuss workplace issues. And since, over the years, I've developed an appreciation for the culinary arts (translation: I'm a Foodie) you'll see some of that here too. So, pull up a stool and order your favorite drink . . . the bar is always open.

Oh Sharlyn. Thank you. This is so thoughtful. I’m sad to say goodbye to PRHR but a little excited about the future. Thanks again for recognizing me. I really do appreciate it.
You are most deserving. Look forward to seeing you soon.
Both of your blogs are the two I read on a regular basis. Keep up the great work, both of you! Thanks for all your HR help too!
Thanks for reading! You’ve made my day.
Laurie has been doing a wonderful job. Hats off to her. And I have been reading you Sharlyn. You are amazing while writing stuff.
