how cool is the place i work??

i invited meggie to eat lunch with me this week, and was super bummed when i found out that the main eating area was closed this week due to this. it was totally fine with me that i wasn't going to be able to eat yummy burrito or anything else that the place has to offer, especially since it was for such a good cause.

i found out yesterday that prez clinton was going to speak there in the afternoon, and we got to watch his speech via vc. he really is a captivating speaker, and quite serious about making sure people around the world who don't have much are given quite a bit more. people started applauding him in the middle of his comments, but he made sure to get his point across first. he seemed very committed to helping those in need, and i hope that my co-workers who were able to hear his speech were able to take away something from it.

but still...how cool is my work that they showed his speech via vc to a bunch of different buildings?? i'm sure it was to keep us away from where he was speaking!! i actually had to deliver packets to people near where he was speaking, but delayed that since i heard there was just a bit of security there. :)
