Wow! In 4 days it will be Jan. 2011. This year has really been flown by!
But ya know what they say..."time flies when you're having fun."

I have to say that the past year here has really flown by, and yes, a lot of fun was had.
It's hard to believe that I've been here for a year already, and that's definitely how you know you love your job!

What's not to love? We sell way cool games and toys. I love being able to see all the cool new games coming out before anyone else has ever even heard of them. It would be really fun if we got to play the games, but that doesn't happen unless someone buys it...and we're all busy outside of work as well with families, so we don't get to hang out and play, but it's all good.

I believe 2011 will be another amazing year here at World at Play Games. We're getting more and more new items and new games are always being released. Of course, we still sell a lot of the well known games like Catan, and all of its expansions, and Carcassone, and all of its expansions.
Those games will be popular for a long time to come.
Dixit and Dixit 2, both "newer" games are very popular, and I see them staying that way for awhile as well.

Along with the new products, we also gained some new employees. Needless to say, they fit right in with us and we're happy to have them aboard.

I hope everyone has a safe, wonderful and happy New Year.
May 2011 be filled with great things for everyone!

It's getting close to Christmas...11 days to be exact, and I have to say, I was not prepared for what lay in store when the Christmas rush hits!

This is my first Christmas here. I just missed it last year, since I started working here in January. I heard all the stories, and I thought they were hilarious.
Well, the Christmas "rush" began in November for us and I was blown away.

Being the customer service department, I get the emails and the phone calls. I've never heard that phone ring more than it has this month! And the emails...tons of them, which were a good thing, because I got to discover things about the games I never knew.

I have to say my job is way easier than the guys in the warehouse and in shipping. All the boxes that come in, and all the packages that go out daily are insane! I commend the guys (and girls) that receive the items in and the boys in shipping that make sure they get out to our customers. They've done an amazing job.

Everyone here has pitched in, worked long hours and is making this happen so our customers get their items. Even the boss, and his right hand woman, our C.O.O. have been putting in extra long hours and working in the warehouse to get everything done. Luckily, everyone has been keeping their sense of humor...especially Vern, our warehouse manager. He keeps everyone laughing, as does Brandy, our Product Line Manager. They're both hilarious and can be heard laughing about something. Patrick is our resident clown, and his off the wall antics and words definitely make us smile too.

I'm very happy to say that I've enjoyed my first Christmas here, and look forward to many more with this great group of people I work with.

I hope everyone has a great Christmas and a very Happy New Year!
