The Freelance Thanks Tumblr Congratulates You When No One is Around

— November 15, 2011 — Pop Culture
If you've ever completed a difficult task or project only to find that there's no one around to pat you on the back, then the Freelance Thanks Tumblr is for you.

Perfect for freelance writers, those who work from home and anyone who just so happens to do something great while their loved one or roommate is out at the grocery store, the Freelance Thanks Tumblr lets you know that you did a great job at, well, whatever it is that you want to be congratulated on.

With sayings such as "Well done!," "Good job!," "You are on top of everything!" and my personal favorite, "You are relevant!" (I always want to make sure), the Freelance Thanks Tumblr is just the reassurance everyone needs sometimes.
