Okay, a slight exaggeration.
Still, for the first time in JLB history, we've got two interns working for us at once.
For the past four years, we've tried to throw a bone to our younger counterparts, offering a summer internship to that ambitious, qualified college student. And this past winter, we even had a six-week winter intern (Charlie, aka Stewart) roaming the wooded floors of JLB HQ.
But this summer, we knew we needed more than one person could offer. In fact, we were looking for applicants to help with FranklinIs.com and to help in our graphic design department. The competition for both positions was pretty tough, but in the end, we think we found the right two.
Meet Candace and Lauren. Those who read our blog faithfully (thanks, Mom) already have. That's because C and L just posted their first entries to our blog, in the last couple of weeks. But for those not in the know, I want to call your attention to two, bright, recent college grads, who in four weeks have demonstrated superb ethic and creativity and have already added tremendous value to the work we do.
If you happen by the cottage on FoNo this summer, be sure to give a shout to the newbies. But if I know them, they'll probably beat you to the punch.
