Rookie Nights!

Rookie Nights

 

Another Holiday Season come and gone and I could tell you some stories. You know how they say that a lot of people get fired for what they said or did at the company Holiday Party? I see it first hand!

 

We like to refer to these nights as “Rookie Nights”. People that don’t really drink or party are going out and it’s like they are 21 again. Our drivers pour them out of the limousines and party buses all over Scottsdale & Phoenix. They help them stumble to their front door and in some cases have to put the key in the door for them. It’s really funny to talk about but not when you see it.

 

I don’t know how you go back to work on Monday and look at your co-workers in the face without apologizing. But you know everybody needs to let loose sometimes but you should probably do it with your friends who care and understand you not people who are going to remind you of it and email out pictures of it to everyone in the office, or to shame you into a raise or day off perhaps?

 

Does this remind you of anyone at your work? If so write me, respond to my blog and let me hear about it!

 

Check out this poor soul, bet he can't wait till the Monday morning meeting.

Better yet send me some pics if you got them.

 

Have fun out there and remember to get home safe in a party bus or limo from Platinum Ride Limos & Party Buses.

Come On 2010!!!

Saturday, December 19th, 2009

You know it’s been a tough year. I think I speak for everyone in America when I say things can and will get better. Being in a service industry we are constantly evalutating and promoting, trying to make ends meet.

 

I am gonna say it right now I see the light at the end of the tunnel. We all need to take a good look and see that light together. We do live in a place that everyone longs to be. People come from all over the globe to make there way to the “land of the free”

 

Maybe there are those that have taken pleasure in our countries recent setbacks. But I’ll tell you there is nowhere in the world now or has there ever been a country like the USA! We have our issues, we’re not perfect but we have done in a short 250 years what other countries couldn’t do in 2500.

I believe that has to do with who we are as a people. Think about it, it took an Italian staring at the night sky (Galileo), probably after too much wine, to theorize that the Earth was round and not flat.

 

Then it took another Italian (Columbus) with brass **** to prove it. He had to be nervous sailing those ships being pretty sure the Earth was round, not flat.

That’s the kind of people who came here first. Then we had to deal with England and a bunch of farmers took on the most powerful military of that day. We sent them back home with a bloodied nose.

 

Civil wars, World Wars, The Great Depression we have dealt with a lot over the years and come out on top. The reason has always been because of the people of the USA.

We’re gonna get through this too! Things are looking up, don’t let the news drag us around by the ear telling us it’s good or it’s bad. It was bad but we’ve been through worse!

 

I don’t mean to sound overly dramatic but hey that’s the way I roll. 2010 is going to be the start of us coming out of this muck. Carry the spirit of the Holiday Season throughout next year let’s help each other out.

 

We will show the world what we can do and what it means to be Americans!

 

Good times in 2010 and don’t forget Limos & Party Buses in Phoenix, Limos & Party Buses in Scottsdale & Limos & Party Buses in Arizona.

 

Another shameless plug for a great limo company, Platinum Ride Limousines.

Holiday Light Tours

Wednesday, December 16th, 2009

I was afraid that this years light tours would suffer because of the economy. I was wrong, I went out with the kids last night as we do every year to research the best lit homes in the valley and we found a couple that are really cool.

 

There were 2 new ones in particular that we sat in front of for 30 minutes each they were that good. They broadcast songs from their home that go with the light show and you tune it in on your car radio.

 

I have been sick for a couple of weeks and really haven’t been in the Christmas Spirit but my family and I really enjoy taking the Limo Light tours every year.

 

If you would like to book yours here is a suggestion go on a weekday. The tours are done typically by 10:00pm, not too late for the kids. Also on weekdays we have a little better pricing.

 

I hope you all are getting in the spirit of the holidays. Don’t forget to book your Holiday Party Limo in Arizona or your Holiday Light Tour in Arizona.
