The Best Corporate Job in America

Last night was the big open house event at the new Linford & Company offices. It was a very nice time I think. Lots of friends and colleagues came, everyone seemed to enjoy meeting others in the diverse crowd, and there were a couple of bottle wines left over that we got to take home! […]
