Brian and Mark’s Trip
July 24, 2008 · Print This Article
Well, Brian and Mark just left and we all cried a little. Their days were mostly filled with tech meetings, but their evenings were full of fun and games. Tuesday night, the whole team had dinner at Jack Astors. Some memorable moments include Darren O arm wrestling Darcie and almost losing (no one was surprised). Once the team was done creating a mess and scaring away the other customers, they moved on to Grace O’Maley’s down the street where they were kicked out of shortly after. There were several expletives used. A retaliation was had that Ed will benefit from, but cannot be mentionned here for fear that a certain new employee could be jailed.
After the Gracies carnage was done, whoever was still standing headed out for some kareoke. Franca took one for the team and flirted with the kareoke guy so that we could get our songs played. Well, that’s what she said anyway. We were the only people in the bar, so her flitation was pretty needless.
Needless to say, Wednesday was a little slow for all of us.
We finished Wednesday off by playing Rock Band for 3 hours. Fun times.
Thursday was another day of meetings and chinese for lunch. Salim was really mean to Darcie and just about made her cry. Other than that, it was a preety quiet day.
Bye MarkJaquith and Brian! Please come again!
No doubt all of this on the b5media expense account while the bloggers are all at home working their butts off.
Trust me Mr Salty, that would be awesome…but b5 does not sponsor our alcohol.
Correct, all this, but the company meal, was on our dime. Jeremy actually made it very clear in an announcement before the food came that the meal would be covered but after that we were on our own.
We even walked the mile and a half to and from the hotel when we didn’t have our luggage. So no cab fare. Though admittedly, it was because we needed the excercise
Though we did get some pizza the next day as we worked through lunch :)
