This was pretty cool
After nearly 20 years at Sony I (finally, long story) left and now work (as an Engineer) for a government contractor. My company, based on the East Coast rented time/space on the scoreboard at the local minor-league baseball stadium and in between innings, honored their employees that were Military Veterans. They sent me a pic and honestly, it was kind of humbling, literally brought a tear to my eye. Really very very cool.

Had to be deflating for the ladies at the game to see your picture and then find out you weren't actually there. Hope there wasn't a riot.

That is very cool Paul. It's nice to know your employer values your service enough to recognize it. Getting rare these days.

Very nice Paul. I'm certain you would have beaten the women off with a stick if you were there.
Will Tumi be doing the same for you seeing that you are their finest customer?????? |
