From Chris Walla via e-mail, channeling the president:
Hi everyone,
The conference was a great success. It was a real pleasure to meet all the other branch managers. I feel like we made a lot of progress. It's so nice to finally put faces with the names on these e- mails, you know? Hope you got home safe.
LET'S DO THIS!!
