I really hated to title this latest HR / Training pulsating post as I did, (waaaay too many ABBA references his week for some reason), but what choice did I have??? Feast your ogling ojos on this:
That’s Zappos HR’s very own ninja prom queen, Heaven “Heavenless” T. showing us what she’s got. ‘nuff said.
Oh wait, that’s not true!! I also managed to score a pic of Jamstar’s recent glittering gift from one of her joie de vivre vendors:
Perhaps coming to a Zollar Store near you!! Sweeeeeet……
Some parting notes!
Jobs@zappos! Come getcha some!
Special thanks to Tony “Gender Bender” H., Zappos CEO, for letting me post Heaven’s performance here, instead of snatching it from my archives for his own sinister purposes, and waiting ever so patiently for me to get it out. Yer the best Tony. Love ya. Mean it.
Coming Soon!
-How HR’s Monthly Outing literally rocked! (promise this one’s coming really soon)
-An update from Training! (sorry, really needed to get Heaven’s routine up!)
-Zappos.com: Powered by Hope! (and another Dancing Queen!!)
-Random Rozzy Thoughts! (building anticipation…it’ll be worth it!)
-The Benches Are Here!!!!! (or, “Why We Love Rozzy and Rebecca L.!”)
-What’s all this about Twitter, then?!!
Until we meet again, “Yes! A brain transplant!...I don’t need it; take my brain!”

Have any ideas on how this crazy, kooky thing we call a blog could evolve? They don’t even need to be good ones! Have a burning question, or a need to wax philosophical? Need some sage advice? I’m here for you, citizens of the intarweb, and my sustenance is your comments!!!
Last week a music legend visited Zappos for 3 1/2 hours! Gladys and William Knight-McDowell came by on Wednesday afternoon and our CEO, Tony Hsieh gave them the full tour. She signed autographs for everyone and thrilled hundreds of fans! She commented on the warmth and camaraderie here and she strives to maintain the same family atmosphere in both her musical group and her restaurants.
In this picture, she has just seen her name tag and picture (just like all our employees have) over Clarissa's desk. Clarissa is one of our graphic designers and so Gladys proceeded to do some graphics work on the tablet and computer. We are proud to report that Gladys is now an Honorary Zappos Graphic Designer and she has a standing job offer at Zappos!
She also recorded a phone greeting for us and we'll definitely let you know when that goes live later this week. Gladys Knight will be performing at the Orleans Showroom on April 11-13 and her entire band will be wearing shoes from Zappos! One never knows what wonderful surprises a new day at Zappos brings.
