Foiled Again: Why you shouldnt go on vacation

The other day as I was sitting in the office looking at all the white stuff coming down outside. Then, I got an IM from a team member on vacation.  Yes, we are such a tight knit team that even on vacation we are concerned about what’s going on in the DAA department!  As he boasted about enjoying his drink outside in the sunny 85° (Naples) Florida weather; I got an idea.  We work really hard during launch in the DAA department. So when we have a little spare time we love to have fun together.  So, we thought it would be fun to play a little prank on our beloved Dylan Wren who is fairly new to DAA.  A trip to the dollar store and 7 rolls of aluminum foil, we had what we call DAA Foil art :) So, we went a step further...since Dylan is an early bird the boss called and told him security was working on the key card system and he wouldn’t be able to get into the building until 9:30am ....that way we can all enjoy the look on his face when he sees his work area.

It cost $7 and my lunch hour, but the look on his face...priceless!

Nice job on your site here. I too am attempting to build a blog for my small home construction business. Its a long story, but I'm not very good at this techy stuff. I like the site theme you have used here and was wondering what it was called? I bought Brian Gardner's theme but after about 2 weeks...I just gave up. It was way too complex for my simple mind. I want to supplement my income in the cold winter months and thought I could do it by blogging. Its going to be a long road ahead. Anyway, I just stumbled across your post here and am happy to have met you. virtually of course :-).

This year my handyman/home remodeling business took a nose dive. A friend of my wife suggested that I set up a web site and write useful general articles. Not as straightforward as it sounded...for sure. Thanks for a nice blog here. I like your design theme. I've finally got mine to where I want it...though I can't take any credit for it myself. Hopefully I'll determine how to make cash doing this....rather than just writing articles. lol. Take care.

i don't know much about this topic. But your info is valuable and become new knowledge for me. many thanks.

Thx for sharing it, that's become my new knowledge. I ll come again to your blog. Cheers!
