Well, today my dear friends is Pulled Pork Day. That's right, delicious pork stripped apart in a scrumptious sauce....yummy! But the best part about Pulled Pork Day are the delicious accoutrements that go along with it - watermelon slices, rolls, pasta, and potato wedges.
And there is absolutely no connection between river dancing and pulled pork, except for the fact that pulled pork day makes me do a jig!
Amanda was born in a town that I bet nobody can say five times fast-Monongahela, PA. When she was a child she enjoyed playing hockey, rock climbing and water rafting. She was definitely an adrenaline junkie. When she was a teen she realized that the girl’s hockey team was way more violent then the boys. She loved to play defense because she really got a chance to let out her aggression and hit people. However, every addiction has its consequence, and Amanda felt those consequences when she was checked from behind and received a class III concussion. I guess she should have checked herself, before she wrecked herself! Amanda is so much of an adrenaline junkie that I asked her to put her finger in the light socket just for fun and she totally did it! (Don't try this at home. You might really hurt yourself)
If there is anything that Amanda loves more then hockey it’s definitely grammar. She has taken many classes and frequently throws down with people over the subject. She is always poised and ready for a grammar smack down. So don’t challenge her!
I asked Amanda how she ended up working at Zappos and she replied that she had heard that everyone who works here is crazy, so she immediately thought she would fit in. She loves Zappos because it feels more like a family then just a job to her.
Amanda is a great asset to the Kids Content Team and to Zappos as a whole. She’s a force to be reckoned with, so if anyone’s got a problem with that, you can come talk to her. I’m sure she’ll straighten you right out.
