Sometimes, you walk into the Blue Q offices and see a sign. Rarely is it taped onto the floor. But if you walk closer, you can see that it’s just as relevant as one, say, taped onto a wall. And then there it is. In all it’s glory. A sign to end all signs. Happy [...]

I was at a lovely baby shower this weekend complete with glowing pregnant mother to be, lovely quiche, lovely mimosas, lovely conversation…. You know. Just lovely. Typical New England July Saturday, hot, humid, not a breeze in the air to be found….but, as I said, lovely. And there I was, helping myself to some lovely [...]

So, I read this article in New York Magazine at lunch: I Love My Children, I Hate My Life. Oy. Not sure I should “go there”. But the comment section is quite….I would say, abrasive. Things like: DUH! (I’m sorry, but–duh.) Is there any way you could make every person in Tribeca read this article? [...]

Blah. That time of year again. Time to think about buying something for dad, a.k.a. The Hardest Man To Buy For In The World. That’s why this breathspray works. It’s like a little hint in a tube, you know? Nudge, nudge, wink, wink, Just kidding dad (that’s what you say when you hand it to [...]

Did you know that the average toddler can take 176 steps a minute?!? Being a Mom to a toddler, I can attest that this is pretty accurate. My son started walking a couple weeks before his first Birthday and he is 19 months old now. So, do the math and that equals LOTS of toddler [...]

We’re totally confused. What is it with resturants in the great city of Pittsfield Massachusetts? We have our old standby’s, sure, and they’re old standby’s because we can STAND BY THEM. But honestly, the nutrition meter in our bodies are telling us to mix it up a bit. You can’t have that same tuna salad every [...]

Blue Q has a lunch program. You pay a certain amount every week (or daily) and then you can order off any of our lunch menus – soup, sandwich, salad, you name it. But you know. You work at one place long enough (many of us have been here upwards of 6, 7, 8, 10+ [...]

This post is courtesy of Sergio…and I encourage all employees to any company to read this post carefully and thoroughly. And that is all I will say (one more thing, if you’re not familiar with The Big Filter Battle, I encourage you to check out the links in Serge’s post.) I win. Know why? Cause [...]

It’s kinda pathetic in a way. The amount of chocolate we seem to NEED here at Blue Q. And I guess I should say that it might be mostly the upstairs in the office (although, downstairs, seriously, please weigh in here). But come 3:00 (tea time – and yes, we make tea every day at [...]
