Well, as a member of the Social Events Committee, we decided to plan a Better World Books I love the 80’s day! We were pleased to see the amount of office participation! Dustin Holland, VP of Acquisitions, is so down to earth! He too dressed for the occasion wearing fitted jeans rolled at the bottom, flip flop sandals, and socks – TOTALLY 80’s!!! Another memorable 80’s ensemble was Courtney Griffin sporting hot pink leggings, leg warmers, and an oversized lazy neck tee – memorable of “Flash Dance”!!!

What are some of the fun and crazy things you do at your workplace?

Even as one of the newbies here with Better World Books, I realize the impact that our company has on literacy. Within the second week of my position here, a student from UGA (University of Georgia) visited our Alpharetta office to personally thank us for our contribution to Books for Africa.

A week later we received an email from a student in Algeria, expressing his gratitude for our service. The following week, I picked up an issue of Business Week: Small Biz and who’s on the cover? Xavier Helgesen… one of the co-founders of the company (read more in previous entry)! Way to go Xavier! Better World Books is amazing!!
