rnWhen my last employer, a large semiconductor plant (Philips Semiconductors of Albuquerque, NM) closed down, those of us who chose to stay on to the bitter end were rewarded with these plaques made from leftover wafers. Yay. (Honestly, there were other perks that made it worthwhile.) Though I originally had been told I would be among the first wave of employees RIF’d, it turned out that I was among the last 4 or 5 employees at the plant, principally due to the broad spectrum of my IT duties (PC support, domain admin, network admin, phone system admin, etc.). Don’t ever let it be said that there is no value to being an IT worker!!!rn

As you can see, this little dog has been around my cubicle a long time. I worked for the company that was giving these away at tradeshows. As a salesperson, I always tried to scope the shows for the best souvenir I could. The best one ever I have at home – a signed National League baseball autographed by Hank Aaron.rn

I got this little pen / laser pointer from a vendor I was working with at a tradeshow. It has 5 different tips for different laser pointer images to display on a wall or in your favorite NBA basketball opponent’s face while they are trying to shoot free throws. ( LOL ) Company was Baypoint Innovations.rn

I received this within a month of the Enron scandal breaking. It came in a box questioning if energy procurement was a puzzle for me.rn

I came across this little treasure while working at Intel. Similar to the Rubik’s cube, it can be taken apart and re-assembled by almost anyonernKids especially loved getting this during Intel’s Kid to Work Days. I got this one because I set up a session for Voice Recognition and Voice Mail technology. I had a great time leading the session.rn

A former employer let me take home this old computer. Unfortunately, it never worked. I couldn’t get the water lines connected correctly…
rnOkay, they only gave me the picture (postcard) of this Cray X-MP/48.rn

These cups are obtained because we are the client of this company. They will send other souvenirs, like clips, to us frequently.rn
