Tris and CJ in Toronto

Uncategorized Comments (1)

The Toronto office is blessed with the pressence of CJ, our Content Manager, and Tris, our Training Manager. Not much has changed with them since the trip to Austin for SXSW in March. Tris has been writting a new blog which seems to get a lot of attention because of its often un-talked about subject. The blog, Manscaping 101, is about male grooming. Over pizza at lunch, all the guys in the office shared their personal grooming habits. Needless to say, it was an interesting conversation, and as always, I learned way too much about my co-workers.

Since I am a mannequin, I have a never-changing perfect face and don’t do anything to groom (though Chad thought it would be funny to put pink marker on my lips once).

…or extension of one. Salim Teja, b5’s Chief Operating Officer had a baby boy this weekend. (Well, his wife did). Ayden Teja was born Saturday May 3rd at 6:45 pm weighing in at 8 pounds (whoa). Mom and baby are at home and doing fantastically well. Salim is out drinking.

No one is really sure if Salim’s wife exists, or if she is merely a figment of his imagination. We believe he photoshopped himself into the picture of the bride you get when you buy a frame. He keeps saying she is coming into the office to meet everyone “next week”. Does this baby really exist Salim, or are you just making it up so you can “work from home” for 2 weeks?
