Veterans day is this week, and we wanted to do something to show our appreciation. Jerry, the mayor of Zappos, is a Veteran and thought it be fun to hear the stories from some of our employees who are former military. Even though there are many tough times, Jerry thought we should take a look at the lighter side. We went around the office and asked some of our veterans, "What is the funniest story you remember when you were in the service?"
All of us at Zappos.com want to thank all the Veterans for everything you have done for us!
Today we at Zappos would like to wish everyone in the United States of America a Happy Independence Day! We hope that everyone is going to spend their day with friends and family and celebrate this nation that has done so much for all of us.
We would also like to extend a THANK YOU to all members of the United States Military who are fighting all over the world. We salute those souls whose selfless acts keep the rest of us safe from harm.
Troy has done and seen may interesting things, in fact, he has been to 26 different countries in his life and have lived in several different States, his favorite of which is Oregon and he hopes to move back some day.
Since Zapponians are all about celebrating random holidays, such as International Pancake Day, Troy actually has a calender that gives you a random holiday for everyday of the month. So if you ever need a reason to have a party, go see Troy.
