WEEK 8: Employee
Submission Deadline - 3/5/01
The 4th employee to send in a complete and correct
assignment will earn Monday off next week.
Bonus Trip To Mardi Gras
Their Task:
Since all our employees did so well last week, they've been awarded with a trip to Mardi
Gras for the Fat Tuesday celebrations. It's not all for un though. Each employee must
track down battery operated "light-up" beads that blink for a new promotion we
are planning for the summer. For their task, they each must send us:
1) The name of these beads, 2) A company that makes them, and 3) how much they cost for 1
dozen.
ANSWER: 1. Blinky Beads (the most common)
2. Big Easy Beads 3. $84.00/dozen
Their Question:
What day did the 2001 Mardi Gras Carnival Season start on?
ANSWER: January 6th, Epiphany
Their Opinion Question:
Since your boss knows your entire office will be at Mardi Gras this year, he posts a
$100.00 reward to the employee that brings him back the most beads and other parade
trinkets. Tell us what you would do to gather the most goods and ensure your victory.
Each employee in the contest must submit their info ASAP and
the overall performance of their assignment will be what determines their fate each week.
Will the biggest Slacker win the appreciation of the voters, or will submitting quickly be
the key to success? We'll find out as employees are terminated.
