The World of IT

Up the stairs, behind the giant red door, is the world of our IT department. They are a friendly bunch and love visitors in their spacious loft. Here’s a joke wild Sam told me: Tow VB (Visual Basic) programmers walk into a bar.

We laughed and laughed and finally simmered down with a round at their espresso-puter. What a great bunch!
