After my local news telecast last night, thine eyes landed on quite a story that the fine folks over at ABC News' Nightline were airing: A story about Zappos!

Nightline camera crews were in our offices for two days at the end of June, filming our training classes in NV and our KY Boot Camp in Kentucky. They focused on our culture, customer service and our ten core values and how we apply them to our business. Our CEO, Tony Hsieh, was interviewed and explained why we want to treat our customers like royalty (Which You Are!) and how we have made that our number one goal.

If you follow the link below, you can see the story on the Nightline's Website.

We thank Nightline's crew for being so great to us while visiting, and thanks to everyone for watching!

Below is a glimpse into your standard insanity of a Zappos Happy Hour. Not for the faint of heart!


And....the slap heard round the Inn Zone.

Howzit, faithful followers?!

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 p-1603, 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!”
