Hutchinson Web Design Company Solves all Problems with Dry-Erase Board
Hutchinson Web Designer, LogicMaze, aims to “get it together” with help from a wall-mounted dry-erase board, which they acquired November 13th.
Organization, communication, visualization: each an issue in an office setting, and each something that the staff at LogicMaze WebDesigns fully intended to nip in the bud. With a staff of six, each of which buried in the screen of their respective computers, the use of the newly-installed dry-erase board is meant to bring about a more collective and organized method of operations beyond that which is accomplished merely with only Windows Messenger, Microsoft Outlook, Google Docs, Google Calendar, a Blackberry, countless Excel Spreadsheets and cellular phones.
“See. . .” began Cody Heitschmidt: the mastermind of Operation Mitchell Don’t Sniff the Markers, “before, we didn’t have something that we could get in a big group and draw on. Now . . . we have something that we can get in a big group and draw on. It’s cool.”
When asked about concerns of inappropriate things being drawn on the board, the staff responded with a unanimous shrug of the shoulders.
“I already drawed some boobies,” said Mitchell, with blue and red marks all over his nose.
Tamara “Boss Lady” Heitschmidt had little to say about the dry erase board. She simply rolled her eyes and said: “All the guys seemed so excited about the idea, and I’ve learned that they’re a lot more productive if I just let them do little things like that. Few things are less fruitful than an office full of guys with bruised egos.”
Concerns were raised when they realized that one of their staff members telecommutes from his home in McPherson Kansas. There is already a plan pending approval to solve this problem, however. The idea is to train a web cam on the dry erase board and install another dry erase board at the home of Josh Krannawitter in McPherson with another web cam trained on it, so that he and the
Hutchinson staff can share ideas on their respective boards.
“Stay out of my house,” responded Krannawitter to the suggestion.
The bottom line is that the dry erase board is a definite aid for the LogicMaze staff to get their proverbial poop in a group, and they have nothing but high hopes for it.

I can’t wait to see the new addition – do I get to write on it? Do Chance and Baylee? Or is it strictly for the famous “six”???

I hereby decree that Pam shall be able to write on the dry-erase board whenever she feels so inclined. Same goes for Chance and Baylee (although it means that Ant is going to have to keep his scrawlings appropriate).
Anybody that is brave enough to enter the depths of torture, which I call “office” is welcome.

You guys are genius. I guess that’s why I hired you. I think you need to come and install a board here. I’m certainly not oppposed to a webcam either. ( But only on the board.) I always win at pictionary.

Wesley Towers has taken the initiative to order 200 whiteboards and we are determined to become as organized as LogicMaze. Do you provide training or a website that we can go to with directions on how to utilize them best? We have a huge training budget.

For a sizeable chunk of this “huge training budget” I will personally come down and train all of the Wesley Towers staff on the efficiency of a dry-erase board.

Cody, you might want to consider the surprising hours of fun you and your staff could experience by turning out the overhead lights and, using only the light from the bulb of your desk lamp shining on the dry erase board, practice and perfect your shadow puppets. Who knows what creativity might be unleashed??!!

Um…I landed here when I googled ‘my dry erase board is stained with non-dry-erase-markers’…can you help me? Is the web cam going to be broadcast so everyone might delight?

Karen,
Not sure about the permanent marker staining issue. But you might try Goo Gone. If not, go to Home Depot or Lowes and buy a 4′ x 8′ sheet of white shower wall board for $8. That’s a low-cost version of dry erase board that I use at Underground Vaults & Storage.
If your dry erase markers don’t easily erase from it (it is a little more “staining” than expensive dry erase boards) use Goo Gone, that’ll take it right off.

I’m sure that you could do them more justice than I could.

Air travel has become a major part of our society, with industries and individuals depending on air transport for their livelihood. But have you ever wondered what happens to the artifacts of our airborne culture when they’re no longer needed? More..
