I did a double-take on my way out the main Amadeus building at 4:59 this afternoon: there, right in front of me, on the little grassy patch that borders the walkway, stood a real, honest-to-goodness... snowman! My first day with Amadeus was November 19, 1990, so I have been on their payroll for 6,988 days. In all this time, this is the first snowman I’ve seen on company property. The funny thing is that we haven’t had a single snowflake so far this year, so Frosty’s raw materials must have been brought here by an employee, most likely on a car. I grant you that this may not be much of a snowman, but the only other one I’ve seen around here is the one built by Eric on our terrace on February 10, 1999. It was wearing Eric’s sweater, new glasses, and... oh, just see for yourself.
