Another year, another 99 cans of Cherry Coke

 

My name is Beau Hollis.  I’m a grad student at the University of Florida, and as of today, I’m 23 years old.  I’m a Program Manager Intern for Windows Live Search.  I help define the user experience for the Windows Live Search page.  I really love my job and my team, and of course, all the great friends I have made out here.  Speaking of my friends, they all collaborated to create the ultimate birthday office for me.

 

They didn’t want me to do any work on birthday, so they unplugged my computer and its many peripherals and wrapped them in foil along with pretty much everything else in my office.  The soda cans I did to myself (thanks Microsoft for free soda) but  the Dixie-cups full of diluted Cherry Coke were part of the “upgrade.”  

 

Special thanks to all the masterminds behind this makeover:  Ajay, Francisco, Maggie,  Dena, Jaidev, Michel, and Maribel.  You guys are great.
