First off, the meal: free steak and lobster! And it was legit. I wish I'd gone back for seconds. So we got there, hung out and ate, caught up with some people, and then the main event of the afternoon was the annual Epic Tug-o-War tournament. It seems that tug-o-war is a big deal around here because we also have a big customer tug-o-war tournament at the Users Group Meeting in September.
If you look closely, you should be able to see the winning team there in black. Apparently they win every year: it looks like they're the Epic weight lifting club or something. No joke, they pulled an entire team to the ground, straight out of slapstick comedy.
After that, we enjoyed some time swinging up on the porch at Voyager Hall.
Definitely a beautiful afternoon. It's still hard to believe that we actually work at this place. It's so beautiful. Here's a quick look back inside Voyager Hall at the posters with the themes from all our past Users Group Meetings (UGMs).
Finally, we enjoyed some ice pops, and we took at a stab at the climbing wall.
This was the difficult side, and no, I didn't make it up. But I didn't see anyone else get any higher, so that's pretty cool.
Now it's bright and early Monday morning. We're trying to get to work by 715 to avoid traffic because today is the third Monday of the month, so we have our monthly Staff Meeting and home day. The entire company meets together for two hours at the Epicenter (our big auditorium in Voyager Hall), and no one is allowed to miss it, hence the home day designation for no travel. Should be exciting! It'll be our first chance to hear our CEO, Judy, speak.
Thanks for reading, everyone. Talk to you soon.
Cheers,
Andrew
