When the November birthday/anniversary cake arrived, these people showed up and said they were celebrating something. So we took a picture.
They are (l to r):
Wendy Wheatley, November birthday and six years with Simantel
Patty Moye, four years with Simantel
Tim Leesman, November birthday
Chris Moehn, 22 years with Simantel (!)
Caryn Hinkson, November birthday and one year with Simantel
Andrew Tuma, two years with Simantel

Seconds after this photo was taken, this small group of people dispersed.

Twenty years ago last week, The Cosby Show was going strong, Billy Joel was electrifying the nation with “We Didn’t Start the Fire,” unleaded gas cost $1.12 a gallon, and a young Kevin McConaghy began his employment with a crazy little ad firm called Simantel. We celebrated the occasion by making Kevin very uncomfortable.

Simantel co-owner Kevin McConaghy squints to read the name on his anniversary card.
