"It's Not Easy Being Green"

Jeff Puthoff: "Why is only one of your toenails purple?"
Kaye: "It's a shout-out* to Choice One."
Jeff: "You're weird."


This, coming from the guy who wears a Choice One Engineering shirt to Christmas mass...

You'd think we'd get tired of seeing green and purple around here, but obviously we don't. It's kinda been drilled into our brain, like those weirdoes who only wear green shirts because wearing a red shirt might imply that they like Case IH tractors over John Deere tractors (see "guy who wears Choice One shirts to Christmas mass," above). It's actually to the point to where when we see each other outside of work (and therefore not in green), we don't recognize each other.

The purpose of the constant green is twofold. First, it's really handy for when you're trying to find each other in a crowded seminar. Second, wearing the same color makes us recognizable, equal, and unified. And as the old saying goes, "There is no "i" in team, but there is a "u" in skunk.

*This little piggy went to market, this little piggy stayed home... And this little piggy cried "Choice One!" all the way home! Now that's a real shout-out to Choice One on your toes.
