Okay, these people know how to party! Here is a copy of an email that my boss sent out this afternoon:
This is my favorite time of year here at C-IV, it is the only place I know of (besides my mother’s house) where you can consume 10,000 calories before noon and someone will say to you with a straight face “what are you doing for lunch?”. This is also a place that runs on its collective appetite, where you can almost set your clock by the activities and traffic flow into and out of the break room, or should I say C-IV café (thank you Grace!).
Ø 7:30 – 8:00 a.m. – Check to see who picked fruit or baked the night before;
Ø 7:55 – 8:22 - Line at the coffee pots due to the two containers of French roast being empty (does anyone else vote that we turn the decaf container into an espresso pot?);
Ø 8:47 – 9:32 – Did anyone put out any pastries donuts or cookies following their morning meeting?
Ø Fridays only – It’s 9:32….. no pastries or cookies in the break room?...... Oh yeah it’s Friday…. the Tech Team brought in Breakfast.
Ø 12:02 – 1:37 p.m. – What committee, workgroup, trainings or brown bag sessions didn’t finish their sandwiches, pasta, pizza, chicken etc? Remember first come first serve, if you wait for the email you are too late.
Ø 2:16 – 3:52 – “Who had a birthday?..... I don’t know why do you ask? Well there is pie, cookies, ice cream and cake in the break room”.
Ø 5:17 – 11:30 p.m. – Did anyone stay late and order dinner?
Ø 11:31 – 7:29 a.m. – It’s pretty quiet in the break room…….hey maybe it’s a cut over or mock conversion weekend and we can get a snack over at the Conversion Team’s area?
That's my boss. He's a crack up! It’s no joke though. There is constantly food here and there is LOTS of food if there is an event going on.
Today, we had our Holiday Potluck. (This is the 3rd party of the week for me.) We set up for 160 people and I believe there were closer to 200. Guess what! There is still a ton of leftovers! Turkey, ham, stuffing, chips, queso dip, bread, potatoes of all kinds, collard greens, rice, sushi (really), some dishes I don’t know the names of because they're from foreign countries, dessert, etc… You name it, we’ve eaten it this week. I’m about to burst. It’s not going to be pretty people.

Halloween is also a huge event here. Here are some of my favorite characters from my first Halloween here:Boy Scout Cory and Man Bear Pig in front of the cave:
PMO (Project Management Office) as the 7 Deadly Sins. Oh, by the way Barbi and Jeanne, Wrath is the Deadly Sin we couldn’t think of the other day at lunch:
Cowgirl Karen
KISS Live
PacMan & The Mrs.
