It's been Five years......


Straight outta Ziggy Stardust.....Not Compton you fool!

Yes, On January 31st I will have been gainfully employed by the Clorox Corporation for 5 whole years. "Yes indeedy", as the brilliant Ned Flanders once coined the phrase!

Five years of employment by one small corporation relative to the big bad giagante of P&G. But in reality I've had a great time working for great people. My favorite person has to be my ex-boss Lynda. She has been a good friend and an influence on me and I have learned many things over the 5 years of our friendship.
thank you.

FYI-on a random note, I was able to pick out a present for my 5th anniversary for working at clorox. I chose a Globe and had the option of having a customized nameplate added to it. I chose to name my globe "Sir Edmund Hillary", this happened on Monday. Well, to my dismay Sir Edmund Hillary Passed away today Thursday janurary 10th. He was the first to conquer EVEREST!

Is that like when Jason gets an A's bobble head and then that player is immediately traded?

Congrats on the anniversary. Where does the time go?

Hmm...Well I guess it's kind of like that but you replace the word "Trading" with "death" and "bobblehead" with "Globe". Luckily for the rest of the living explorers I don't plan on getting another globe anytime soon.

The parakeets must have been great.

DK Here. FresnOakland Represent. Thanks for the smoked meat and insight. I would agree that the CLX faciliated some good times and kick-a** friendships.

I get the significance...Congratulations on being 100% vested!
