On Saturday April 20th the TutorZ-team celebrated recent achievements at a Sushi diner with presents and cheer. The Sushi place was cozy and the food tasty.
Our CEO Dirk started off by introducing the new members: Dima – the new web developer — and me the educational blogger to the coworkers. I discovered that TutorZ consists of wonderful people: First, there is Dirk who is guiding the company for over 6 years. Then, there is Dima who boosted the speed of the production site to less then a second download time. Also there is Jennifer who with Dima makes a wonderful couple. To make April 20th even more momentous, the two decided to get married earlier that day. By now I have arrived at our creative marketing associate Lilly. Her social media work speaks for itself: Facebook, Twitter, Google+, Tumblr, Pinterest, Myspace, Delicious, Linkedin. Finally, I am mentioning our hardworking, intelligent Veronika. If you called us (805-288-7338) you might have already heard her pleasant voice and received her professional help. We all missed John, our director of marketing, who was indisposed that night. Well, and me – I was just talking about Japanese food! And how could I not!? Sushi set (huge one), Miso soup, Yakisoba noodles… mmm Yummy! Great with some green tea and cold Pepsi.
When Dirk talked about the accomplishments of each team member I felt touched by his warm words and special presents. Meetings like these are always nice because many of the TutorZ employees telecommute. Thus, meeting in person and chatting directly outside the workplace is a welcome break from cyberspace. After all we are human and long to be surrounded by friends, talk about something else other than work and have fun.
Thank you Dirk! Thank you TutorZ.com for joining good people!
