One of the most progressive big "Little" companies. Even though they are one of the bigger companies, they have a way of making you feel like family and a big family is better than a small one.

If you could be someone famous, who would you be
No one. Thanks to reality tv and US Weekly magazine. The mystery of being someone famous has been demystified. I don't think i would like the papparatzi aspect. I guess it would be kinda funny to see random photos of yourself picking your nose in the "Stars, They're Just Like Us" section. I would totally mess with the photographers.
