The Perks of Working for a Billion Dollar Company...

As most of you know, Braden works in the Korean support department at NuSkin here in Provo. They have had a really profitable year and how do they repay their employees? VERY generously! We went to Braden's work party at the McKay events center on Tuesday at UVSC. They had catered apetizers (yum, they even had taquitos dad!) and then we went into the auditorium where they had a band come play! I dnt know if anyone has heard of Ryan Shuppe and the Rubber Band but they are really good! They are a bluegrass band and they really played into the crowd! After they performed, the 3 CEO's for NuSkin got on stage to hand out some prizes and drawings such as iPods, TV's, Kitchen Aids, tickets to the Blue Man Group, etc. We unfortunately did not have our names called but it doesnt mean we walked away with nothing! They announced that everyone would get their christmas bonus on Friday, an automatic 2 weeks pay! YEAH! Then we got a goody bag with some NEW nuskin products, then we got a portable DVD player ( we're excited for our flight home, hhhmmm what movie should we watch?), then we got a $100 gift card to Costco, and the workers got breakfast delivered the next morning! All in all, the cost of bonuses and gifts was 1.7 million dollars! Man, I am in the wrong business! It was a great night and here are a few pictures!
