For some time now, our employees have mostly telecommuted.  There are advantages and disadvantages of this, but it has worked out really well.  Commuting from the bedroom to the desk in your pajamas is pretty nice.

One of our employees has recently started a relocation.  He was supposed to travel to Joplin, Missouri this week to begin shopping for a house there.

Joplin, Missouri

I’m glad he wasn’t already in town.  My heart goes out to the people of Joplin.  Living in Tornado Alley, you always have this threat in mind when a storm blows in.  I was living near Lubbock in 1970 when a tornado tore through this city and killed 23.  I vividly remember driving through town a few days after the storm and seeing the incredible destruction.  As dreadfully awful as that was, the destruction of the Joplin storm dwarfs what happened in Lubbock.

If you haven’t I encourage you to visit the American Red Cross website and make a donation.  Small contributions help.
