Why can't we win an award for turning up to work every day?

We're in the middle of awards season where Hollywood stars, who are paid more for one film than most of us are likely to see in 10 lifetimes, are given shiny statuettes for doing their job well. Big bucks and the adulation of millions of fans just aren't enough for some people! So why can't we all win an award for turning up to work every day? Every time we do a top job on that weekly report the boss should organise a black tie ceremony, invite the paparazzi, roll out a red carpet and present us with a weighty, solid gold number to say thanks for doing the job we're paying you for. And if they're giving out awards for acting, we could all nominate plenty of times where we've had to put on an award-winning performance at work. So petition your boss. You deserve it! We all deserve it! It's awards season and no one should go home empty handed.
