Oh how I love my job, let me count the ways…Posted in Uncategorized by michelle on June 24th, 2009 This post currently has no comments. Passion and Team Work
I am extremely grateful to work at company that is full of both passion and team work! Earlier today, I was working on a side project and struggling with the format of plain text mail messages. On a whim, I posted my frustration to Twitter. Within minutes, one of my coworkers responded with the solution! All of the developers at CommonPlaces are quite passionate about what we do. So passionate that a spending Saturday morning coding something new seems like a great day to us. Confucius said, “Choose a job you love, and you will never have to work a day in your life.” I couldn’t have said it better myself! Additionally, the tweets above show how quickly my teammates are to offer advice. The camaraderie never ceases to amaze me as we all work toward common goals. “If you succeed, I succeed.” Posted in Drupal Doctrines, Web Design/Development Axioms by michelle on June 20th, 2009 This post currently has one comment.

Residents Could Be In Dark Until Christmas
Twas two weeks before Christmas and all through the town it rained and it froze and the trees all fell down. The wires that were strung on utility poles snapped like a twig and the houses all froze. We got our selves nestled all snug in our bed while visions of warmer days danced in our head, and me in my thermals and Pa in his cap stayed huddled together for a bone chilling nap. The moon on the ice made a crystalline glow and we thought to ourselves, just how long can this go? When what to our wondering eyes did appear but our son with some coffee and donuts and cheer. We could see our white breath in the darkness above and deep under the covers I searched for my love. His feet, they were frozen and so was his head — made me think to myself that he just might be dead. The days passed so slowly, we must be insane as we waited and wondered and called out by name “On Thursday, on Friday, on Saturday (shit!) on Sunday, on Monday, on Tuesday (please quit!) on Wednesday, and Thursday and Friday (oh dread!) the kerosene fumes must have gone to our head. To add to the pleasure of winter’s delight two snowstorms came by - 18 inches of white. The snowing and blowing made things bad to worse and we prayed to the heavens our pipes wouldn’t burst. Pa‘ s eyes now were sunken, his expression — not merry, his cheeks had a pallor, his nose like a cherry. The odd little smile on his face wasn’t fun and he often was mumbling “go get my gun”. Then a rap on the door, and the fireman said, “Are you sick, are you sane, and is anyone dead? There’s a shelter, there’s warmth, you can come if you’re able, we have showers and kindness and food on the table” — and we looked at each other and thought — “what the heck?” yeah … eleven days later you FINALLY check! On night number twelve we heard the faint roar of a convoy of trucks and we ran to the door. To the top of the poles, to the stretch of the cable — please bring us your power just as fast as you’ re able! They spoke not a word, but went straight to their work and the power came on with a hum and a jerk. They heard us exclaim, as they drove out of sight — MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ALL! WE HAVE HEAT! WE HAVE LIGHT! -Unknown Posted in Totally Unrelated by michelle on January 14th, 2009 This post currently has no comments. |
