I had lunch today with the COO of the company. He is doing this all week and inviting different groups from various departments just to talk candidly and get our feedback on how the company can improve. I really do work for a good company. I couldn’t think of much as far as improvements. Sure there would be some things that would be nice to have, but overall SendOutCards is already the best company I have ever worked...

Today I got a lot of kudos and praise for the work I did the past few days to get the event registration completed. It is not fully complete, but it showed well. I will spend the next couple of days polishing it and hopefully release it Friday.

I took a much need day off today. I was supposed to have last Friday off, but I had to stay and work to get a project done. Even yesterday after working on it all day I still didn’t have it completed. It was a co-worker that dropped the ball and didn’t get his assignment done, then went out of town. He was supposed to be back today so I figured he could finish it up. Rachel and I went on a date during lunch while Gracie & Gehrig...

After eating we played a game that involved all the family including kids called “Do you love your neighbor?” Lance used duct tape to create a four square court for us. We played until we barely had...

My parents drove out to Salt Lake today to see a production of Fiddler on the Roof at Hale Center Theater. Hale Center Theater just happens to be about 2 minutes away from my work, so I invited them to come check out company. It was fun. Mike helped me give them a tour of the place. They were pretty impressed. I think my dad was interested in signing up to become a...
