Today I was walking around the office (searching for holiday chocolate) and I noticed that a couple of the Rubbermaid graphic designers, Ken Gulley and Joel Mills, had used our FastTrack garage shelving products in an unexpected way. They turned them into book shelves for the office.
I had never thought about using these ‘garage’ shelves in any other way than in the garage. They however work perfectly in the office. The even look modern and cool.













The shelves are cool, but I am so liking those apple monitors your colleague has in front of him.
That’s just what I need to make my office complete!
Those are some pretty nice monitors. And he has two of them. The designers get all the cool toys.

To Whom It May Concern:
I would like to call your attention to a unique advertising opportunity. Yesterday my wife was brave enough to post pictures of her craft room on her blog http://www.skiptomylou.org. The pictures are shocking (http://www.skiptomylou.org/2009/01/01/getting-things-done/) but provide somebody with organizational skill a wonderful challenge.
You might consider lending her some expertise and help. In doing so you would be gaining and unbelievable amount of exposure for your products and services. Her blog averages 4,000 visits per day and has almost 3,000 subscribers to her feed.
From the response she has received it is apparent my wife is not the only crafter in this situation. Her blog could be an effective vehicle to showcase your products.
George, We are currently running a contest on our website at http://www.rubbermaid.com/getorganized . You could win a room makeover there. That would be a good chance to help out your wife. Good luck!
