THE DAILY SHOUTOUT: Matt Holzmann

Today's 'shoutout' goes to my little buddy, Matt Holzmann, who worked with me at The Outdoor Network in Boulder (Colorado), and is now a Senior eSpecialist at multi-channeled customer support company, Finali.com. As you may have heard, Colorado's front range (from Colorado Springs to Fort Collins) was hit by a major blizzard last week, crippling the region to the point where schools, government offices, and businesses of all kinds were closed for days-on-end. For someone like Matt, a devastating blizzard is nothing more than a call to action. Matt's Blog tells the story best, but here are some highlights:

Knowing that I could get to work to help my team was comforting and invigorating. It was a great experience to sleep overnight under my desk. It was invigorating to see the spirits of those that made it into work and to see our Executive Team show up in truly nasty weather. I work for them, because they are so willing to work for us.
