Brand loyalty

I have noticed, since starting my new job, that everyone seems to have an awful lot of logo stuff.  Golf shirts in various colors, button-downs with various product line logos, pens, so many miniature cars and trucks you’d think we work for Hot Wheels, and on and on.  After my new hire orientation, I now know why:

And that’s just the stuff I brought home!  The water bottle is biodegradable, which is pretty cool.  The padfolio I won by completing the intranet scavenger search first (finally — all that time I spend on the internet pays off!), and it is a substantial improvement over the ultra-basic model I’ve been using since 1999.

Anyway, it was a pretty good day — met some nice people, got to show off a little for my boss when the supervisors came down for a ‘team-building’ game, got fed, and not only am I done for the week, but I will be out of the office all of next week for a business trip that should be pretty enjoyable.

Have a great holiday weekend!
