If It's Wednesday, It Must Be Crazy Hat Day

Jan 7, 2009 by Melissa L.

Wednesday is just one of those days that needs a touch of something fun thrown into it or most of us may not make to Friday in one piece.

Well, our CLT department found the trick to make Wednesdays exciting, without organizing something over-the-top and that involves very little effort. Crazy Hat Wednesday! It's perfect! Keep a crazy hat at your desk and when Wednesday comes around, put it on and you'll see that your whole day, and your outlook on the rest of the week has changed dramatically.

Sandwich of the Week, PB&J Melt!

Jan 6, 2009 by Melissa L.

Just in case you forgot about our totally awesome sandwich board in the lunchroom, we're going to start posting the sandwich of the week on our blogs so that all of our readers and Zapponians who forget to look at the board can join in in our sandwich making fun.

This week's Sandwich is an oldie but goodie. The name "Just Like Ma's" and it's a toasted peanut butter and jelly sandwich that's guaranteed to bring nostalgic flash backs and warm you up on a cold winter day.

How to make it:
Toast two pieces of bread (I'm a sourdough bread fan myself).
Spread peanut butter on the bread and watch as it melts into pure gooey goodness.
Then you take the jelly and you spread it on the other piece of bread or on top of the Peanut butter.

Now enjoy!

You see, I told you this one takes you back to grade school.

And thank you Terra E. for demonstrating how to make the sandwich of the week!

Or should we call it "Baby Boy in My Belly." That's right, our very own CLT member, Natasha S., is just days away from having a baby boy! See what her team members put on her desk in order to celebrate this momentous occasion.

Unwanted Gift Exchange

1 comment

It's the thought that counts, right? Well, even though it was a thoughtful gift, that doesn't mean that you have to keep it.

Turn in all your unwanted gifts this season to Human Resources and they will give you a ticket that you may redeem for another unwanted gift from a fellow employee.

Hey, you already got the thought you wanted, now get the gift you want. But you better get on this because the gift exchange is officially over January 7th.

Here at Zappos.com we love books, or should I say, we love free books. If you have had the chance to tour our office, then you know what I'm talking about. We like to keep employees and visitors up to speed in a wide range of topics from marketing, business, creativity, wine tasting, etc., so we stock up a library in the front of both of our buildings for everyone to take and read whatever they please.

Now these books don't stock themselves and for that we have our very own Joanna C. to thank. So thank you Jo Jo for keeping our library in tip-top shape and for making me feel like I'm stealing a book whenever I go to grab one, regardless of the fact that they are, well, FREE.

You Rock Jo!

Tony's New Years Gift: Pencil Holders!?!

0 comments
Jan 1, 2009 by Melissa L.


Oh, that Tony Hsieh. He knows that no New Years would be complete without a limited edition Zappos.com "pencil holder" (as our legal department would say) or a "measuring glass" (as Grandma calls it), but this New Years gift really can be used for all types of things. I'm gonna try to put some liquid in it, just for kicks.

Thanks Tony for our New Years multi-purpose Zappos glasses! I'm sure we'll all put them to good use.

Happy New Year, One And All!

There really is a rhyme and reason as to why Terry I., Assistant Buyer 2 in Casual Lifestyles, has the things that he has on his desk, and that's the scary part.

Things On My Desk with Diana G.

Inside Zappos really is all about culture and the "things" that make Zappos so unique from every other company. One thing that us Zapponians pride ourselves in is how encouraged we are to decorate our desk space as we see fit; because lets face it, we spend a lot of hours at our desk and if a fake bird with a wig on it helps you get through your work week, then so be it.

So see the things that CLT member Diana G. keeps on her desk.
