The Lux Whiteboard

By Jayson Jarmon, CEO, LuxWorldwide.com

One of the grand, old traditions here at Lux is the kitchen whiteboard. I guess it's part of what people refer to as "culture" when they describe a company.

It is, admittedly a simple thing ... a blank whiteboard, a daily topic, and free invitation for employees and contractors to write their responses. Nevertheless, it has rendered up minor flashes of wit from time to time, however idiosyncratic or narrowly Lux-y.

So, I thought it might be fun to periodically crib the Lux Whiteboard and put it on public display ... if only to give the outside world a small, albeit delicious, taste of Lux culture.

So, without further ado, here is today's topic:

Storm Names
(see, we had a big, nasty windstorm here in Seattle last night ...)

  • WindBlast 4000 (TM)
  • Flooshie the Swishfoom (R)
  • TomKat-rina
  • www.plantingthateucalyptustreenexttothehousewasprobablyabadidea.com
  • That Wet, Windy #@!$&@!
  • The Rattle in Seattle
  • Insurance Scam '06!
  • Inauguration Day 2: This Time it's Personal

Maybe not our best work, but at least now you get the idea.

Look for more whiteboard posts as they develop. Maybe we'll even get a photo posted for you. Feel free to send potential whiteboard topics to: jaysonj@luxworldwide.com. Please use "whiteboard" as the subject line.
