today is thursday . . . I mean "MUNDAY"!

I usually don't go out of my way to attend the daily sales meeting with the guys, but when I heard that there would be a guest speaker there and that it would be none other than the Chief Executive Officer of Pinnacle Security himself, Chris Munday, I had to go. He is the reason I personally believe so much in this company. I wasn't sure about the whole summer sales idea and whether or not I wanted to follow Casey out here to give it a shot, until I heard Munday speak at a "Super Saturday" event. He told compelling stories about how much he believes in and personally backs up Pinnacle. I then decided that if Casey really wanted to try sales that Pinnacle would be the company to go with. I guess you could say, he sold me on summer sales. He is probably one of the best motivational speakers ever. And today we had the privilege of hearing him speak to all of us on a more personal level as the Pittsburgh Pinnacle team. He spoke to us as if we were all on the same level as he is. He made us laugh with some of his stories and definitely motivated us with others. You can tell he really cares about the each and every one of us no matter how small a part we play in the company.

I think it's safe to say the we all really enjoyed him visiting us here in the "Burgh"!

Famous Dave's

On Saturday night, we went out for some barbeque at Famous Dave's. Most of us ate so much our guts hurt! I still might be full from all the food! It was yum-o!! :)

Rumble in the Burgh!

The fellas know there's a time to work and then they know there's a time to PLAY! Here they are enjoying a Sunday afternoon game of touch football. They don't get a whole lot of time off out here, so it good to see them take a break and play nice together. :)

If you weren't playing football, you might have been out at the pool. Here's a photo I snapped of Jake being tossed in the pool by KC, and Rachel is the girl to the right.

Here are a few random group shoots {click to enlarge}:

Tennis Anyone?. . .

At the apartment complex we are all staying in, we are lucky enough to have a pool, a gym, a basketball court and a tennis court! If you hang around long enough, you'll catch some of the action.

{i think this picture is such a typical luke reaction. it's so luke!}

{judging by the looks on the crowds' faces, it must be a pretty intense match-up}

Kathryn's got game too. . .

model behavior. . .

This is Tyler. He's our comedian.

He will say anything or DO anything to get you to laugh and or smile.
He's pretty good at it too!
As you can see.
:)

Here he is again. This time he thought he'd pose for all the ladies out there. And yes girls, he is single!! Leave your name and number in the comments below, if you'd like him to call you! :)

And then of course Dan had to get in on the action and show off his modeling skills in front of the camera too!
