Cache of the Day - Kentucky Conference

We have branches in both Indiana and Kentucky (among other states), so we have a very strong presence at the state SHRM conferences. While we do a have lot of same foundational preparation for conferences in both states, our Employment Plus participants are delightfully different, the "souther" we go.





Here are some shots of our booth, as well as a picture me and our Area Managers (Chrissy Bowman from Lexington and Richmond, and Crystal Meredith from Louisville and New Albany), and a shot of some of our evening activities. Most notable, was our night at a place at Fourth Street Live, in Louisville, called The Rock Bar. They have the COOLEST karaoke ever, called Full Contact Karaoke, where you sing with an actual ROCK BAND!!!! I was in heaven! Here I am singing a John Mellencamp song with my rock band.


Once they figure out how to do Full Contact Broadway my life will be complete.

Cache of the Day - Going to a Professional Football Game


Joe and I used to have season tickets to the San Diego Chargers and we LOVED it! We had them during the era of "Air Coryell", so there was lots of offensive action on the field.




Of course, most of the fun comes from actually BEING at a NFL game. The tailgating, the food, the awesomeness of the stadium. Being within the crowd is always an experience, and The Wave was a big trend during the 80's when we had these tickets.

Time haven't changed much. We went to an Indianapolis Colts game last month, in their new stadium. Tailgating was at the downtown bars, but we still had fun stadium food and the crazy crowd. And, although The Wave was pitifully weak, we did get to experience the new Colts stadium.

Sadly, the Colts lost, but you still can't change that excitement for anything.
