| I landed at Southwest Airlines in 2004 as a Temp in the Benefits
Department. At that point, I had no desire to work at an "airline", I
wanted something that was going to be "more fun and creative." (I must
have skipped my college marketing class on the day they talked about
Southwest Airlines, right?) My first week at HDQ was Halloween; not
long after that, the Employee Christmas concert took place, and I was
absolutely hooked on the People, the LUV, and the Culture that the
Company is built on. I finally became official in on April 18, 2005
when I was hired as an Administrative Assistant in Technology. Two
years later, I found my calling--I became one of the "original" Culture
Ambassadors, which led to my new position as Culture Activities Rep! If
you want to know about New Orleans (my home), Louisiana State
University (my alma mater-go tigers!), New York City (my home for three
years), Reality TV/Pop Culture (my favorite), or Kookalaka Fettuccini
Messina (my dog)--I'm your blogger!

One More Time |

It has been my plight for ten years. I have been ridiculed and mocked and had to defend myself more times than I care to count for it. Yes, I am a devoted Britney Spears fan.
On this day (Britney's Birthday!), as her “comeback” CD is released, I wanted to put it out there to the world--I love Britney. I’ve felt connected to her since the beginning; a Louisiana girl |

Other Holidays Can "Stuff" It! |

I've written about Nunu; some of you may know my dog's name is Kookalaka Fettucini; but my favorite silly name of all is the one that makes Thanksgiving one of my favorite days of the year: Gogi. Categories: Nutty stuff Nov 26, 2008 |

We've Got "Spirit", yes we do! |

Three things I never wanted to see at work: Hannibal Lector reminding me of the time he had a friend for dinner…with some fava beans and a nice Chianti!; Jason from the Friday the 13th movies swinging his machete at me when I walked by; and Gary Kelly’s Executive Assistant, Gillian Kelley (no relation) wearing a full beard.

File this under "only at Southwest."
A few days ago a bunch of Employees faced that awful vending machine problem: their drinks were stuck. |

My Very Own Brave Soldier |

This is beautiful, Miss Berri. It's a huge testament to the wonderful person that you are that you have stepped up to get involved in all the SWA initiatives to honor our Veterans-thanks for inspiring us all!! LUV you!
Veterans Day to me is celebrating, remembering and honoring our heroes that have ALL served in the Military. Honor ALL Veterans of the US Armed forces, present, past and future. My very own brave solider, SGT Charles Bernard Kitowski, lost his life a year ago, August 12, 2007 while serving over in Afghanistan. |
