Blizzard Utencils

Blizzard Utencils is my groups thought up company that we did our buisness plan on.  Blizzard utencils offers the Arctic Spoon which is a spoon that cools your food for you so you don't burn your mouth.
I learned alot working on this.  Not only did I learn about how a buisness gets started, but I was able to bond and get closer to my group, which was great for doing the project, because we all enjoyed being around each other. 

Dick Yeungling

I had the great pleasure of hearing Mr. Yeungling speak for my buisness class. He was very informational and did a great job of showing what his brewery was all about.  He told how he started to get into the industry and what it takes to be a success in that industry.

My Jobs

I am a lucky guy. My Grandparents owned a successful company that I have always been able to work for. They own a banking security and appliance company that has has massive growth in the past few years and is really starting to become a fore in that field of work. For that company, I was a technician. I would install cameras, under counter steel, and drive up units. I worked for this company for three years and I have enjoyed every one of them. The business is run very well and is kept very professional. The environment is very relaxed and easy to work in.
The other job I have had was on a tree farm. I absolutely loved it. I would cut, shake, and bale Christmas trees every winter for two years. Occasionally I would even get a small tip! The thing I liked most about working on the tree farm was the extremely casual vibe that was given off working there. Everyone was always in a good mood, and the business was run very well. The owners were very relaxed and professional and really made working there enjoyable.
