Congratulations to winner Reza!! Looks like a big win and it’s very cool that one of our newer employees scored the “W” even though he had no idea what was happening…our CSA; Christine Bourrier asked Reza “Do you have any money?!”, Reza says “Yeah….why….?!”, she says “Come with me!” and the rest is history!
Ya hoooooo Reza, looks like you might have enough for a nice lunch or Tim’s coffee for a week ?
