This past Sunday, September 6th, was Christine Biondo’s 27th Workiversary with IDEAS!! What is your favorite part about your job? Love greeting all the talent that come for voice over sessions. Some are famous, others not so much. But I enjoy meeting them all, even the 5 year olds. Any...
“Improve Corporate Visibility.” I was reading an article about the benefits of companies volunteering together and this was the last bullet on the list. I read this and immediately had the urge to vomit (TMI? Sorry…). You know what my problem with this statement is? It’s “me-focused.” If your company...
Once a month birthday dessert treat- Ninja Kick; 4th Friday Fiesta including games, refreshments and margaritas- Karate Chop; Solar Bears hockey games, Pajama Day and Family Breakfast - Roundhouse Kick In the Face…woo…sorry that last one was a little intense, but this my friends, is operation, Ka-pow Morale! It only...
“That’s the stupidest idea I’ve ever heard. Why would you do it that way?” My fellow country-people (in lieu of countrymen, just trying to be PC here), I give you an example of what not to say when coming in new to a company. Two years ago, I was hired...
As a lover of the arts, of course I jumped at the opportunity to tour the new Dr. Phillips Center for the Performing Arts that is currently under construction. Let me just say, this place is impressive. Phase One of this 330,000-square-foot facility in downtown Orlando will house two performance...
“We’re going to need a severed hand, fake blood, costumes and a lots of Halloween decorations.” When our team started working on an awesome idea for a Halloween game/app… our in-house band, 64 IDEAS, just knew we needed to do a spin-off song about it. This past summer the members...
Book series by George R. R. Martin If you haven’t heard the words, Game of Thrones, at some point in the last 2-3 years, you might want to check that you aren’t in fact living under a rock. HBO created a television show that began airing in 2011 based on...
A friend of mine used to remind me of this phrase a lot: “be a duck.” No she wasn’t telling me to go jump in a pond, she was giving me great advice when dealing with people. In a work environment, you’re going to have all kinds of personalities. This...
Fall of 2012, 75% of the office all seemed to have taken the same Friday off. With so few of us left in the office, we decided to make it a special day, Pajama Day. Do you remember elementary school pajama days? It was so awesome getting to wear your...
How easy it is for us to assume the worst? I am very guilty of this. “Oh they were late for my meeting because they just didn’t care. They are so bad at managing their time. They must not think my priority is important.” Especially in a work place full...
Over a year ago, I showed up to IDEAS for my first round of interviews. I was wearing my usual, “interview outfit,” which would have made my college professors proud. Black pants, a button up shirt and black suit jacket with closed-toe shoes. I waited patiently in the lobby for...
I've owned a couple pairs of TOMS shoes over the years. I love making purchases for me that help others as well. Knowing TOMS give a pair of shoes to someone in need when I buy shoes for me, is a great way to shop. Being a generous consumer is important...
