No one likes a squeaky chair. Or at least the people who have to listen to it all day don't, but it is great fun when you're the one with the power!

At Zappos, we are always trying to come up with ways in which to Do More With Less, which is one of our Core Values, and we feel that Space is a valuable commodity. So, we have come up with a new way to fit more people into the offices here in Las Vegas, NV – Bunk-Desks.

The actual idea came from our CEO, Tony Hsieh, while he was thinking about ways to improve our office space situation. We have grown at such a rapid pace, that it’s easy to fill up to capacity before you even know there is a problem. Tony commissioned Warren and Associate Builders, here in Henderson, to build this innovation aimed at maximizing the office space available. After seeing the finished product, Tony actually requested that he be allowed to move his spot in the office to the top bunk.

Alfred Lin, COO of Zappos, after seeing Tony’s new toy, requested that we have another built with a bed on top so he can just crash out right here in the office when he works too late.

Tony is considering mass producing the Zappos BunkDesk and providing much needed space to office buildings around the world. Comment below and let us know what you think!

Harris Interactive polled 1,569 office workers across the US and Canada and found interesting pet peeves amoung the employees. Pet Peeves were:

Mindless printing (40%),Lack of recycling bins (33%),Co-workers not recycling (27%) Leaving lights on (37%), Excessive air conditioning in summer and heat in winter (29%) Co-workers not printing double-sided when they can (24%)

And that leads me to today's

GREEN TIP OF THE DAY #3

PRINT IN DRAFT MODE AND DOUBLE SIDED

Printing in draft mode, prints lighter than on the regular setting. It saves ink and is still readable.

When you need to print mulitple pages switch to the double sided option to conserve paper.

And always consider the environment when printing an email.

Green never felt sweeter :) STAY GREEN, YO!

As a stress reliever from planning warehouse budgets, making purchases, hiring and handling all benefits paperwork, writing scripts to run site manager, and becoming friends with OSHA; the admin team wants to throw something!!!

They decided to start a friendly game of dodge ball, the all time favorite recess sport! Dodge ball is played daily at 3pm in the upstairs office. What a great work out and stress reliever! Kudos, my friends, and remember... safety first!

At Zappos.com, safety comes second to none and it is better to be safe than sorry. The team has created many rules to keep the game fair, friendly, and safe. They actually have too many rules now but they are still having FUN!

We are looking forward to next spring when the weather warms up. Maybe the game can be taken out side and more players can join in. Go Team!
