The Zappos Lunchroom Nacho Test

1 comment
Mar 5, 2009 by Melissa L.

Our facilities team have been working hard trying to change our soup, salad and sandwich bar lunchroom into a fully functioning kitchen so that they can make us some tasty lunch treats and so much more.

This week they have been testing out new lunch items that they will potentially add to a weekly menu. Tuesday's tasty tester was a nacho buffet, and the way the instant line formed out of the lunchroom, I'd say it's a hit. Honestly, who isn't a fan of pure nacho goodness?

Now traditionally Zappos lunches have been provided free of charge, but the big question Tuesday was: How much would you pay for a plate of Nachos? As of right now, $3 seems to be an agreeable rate.

Did You Know . . . ?

That Corina Craig, representing our fabulous CLT Department, owns 15, yes FIFTEEN, pairs of pajama bottoms? I didn't either and I find it both scary and interesting all at the same time. Corina loves to create a little weirdness with statistics like these:

1. These are only bottoms people, apparently pajama tops do not hold that special place in her heart like the bottoms do.
2. She can recite each pair that she owns from memory.
3. She never wears them to bed (and she owns them why??)
4. She hates pajama capris (interesting).
5. 99% of the time she wears them with a Hollister hoddie and a pair of Chucks (I can attest to this).

Now, I couldn't let Corina go without her reciting the list for me and I know all of you are curious to know exactly what design is on each pair, so here we go:

1. Men's red with the Trix bunny.
2. White with 3 penguins in a row.
3. Baby blue with penguins that have scarves wrapped around their necks (love the detail).
4. Red, burgundy, and silver plaid.
5. White, pink, and plaid.
6. Pink, red, and white vertical stripes.
7. Gray with “Aero” written in green.
8. Gray with “Aero” written in pink.
9. Pink and green with white polka dots.
10. Pink and green with “Hollister” written in yellow.
11. Green with “Hollister” written in yellow.
12. Orange with “Holister” written in pink.
13. Pink, yellow, and white vertical stripes.
14. Gray with “Hollister” written in turquoise (Nice job remembering a vague color!!)
15. Blue with white and green polka dots.

Wow, what an adventure! We now will leave you with three pictures of Corina in a few of her favorite pairs of pajama bottoms. Join us next week to find out how many pairs of slippers Abbie Morris owns; I know, we can't wait for that one either.

Matt sensed a change in the way his shoes have been acting in the last 2 weeks, but was hoping his problem would just go away. When he noticed the problem was actually getting worse, he contacted the Shoe Whisperer.
