Exceed
It's strange for me to think that the Exceed crew isn't going to be in Ames anymore. As I'm sitting here, waiting to leave for our good-bye party, I can't help but think about how different it will be without people working on the crew.
For three years, I worked steadily for Exceed... and now that I'm working osmewhere else I can't deny the blessing that it is to be able to work with people who share the same basic values in life as I do... and the fun it can be to work with fellow believers. Now I am constantly fighting off conversations that blow past the lines of appropriateness, when while at Exceed, I merely had to prepare myself for the mass story-telling from guys who just wanted to gross me out... not gossip, tell nasty jokes, or talk way too much about their relationships with the opposite sex!
I think about some of my best freinds now, and a good handful of them... probably at least four I got to know almost entirely from working Exceed. That's kind of a cool thought.
My most embarassing moment is actually an Exceed work story... and so is the story of the absolutely most disgusting thing that has ever happened to me. (think: human excrement, extractor, and a wet shoe)
