back home
I made the move back home to Minnesota. On my first week on the job out here, I visited the Kraft branch in Fargo, ND and attended their sales meeting. I felt like it was a scene straight from the movie "New In Town." It was classic. Everyone was so nice and had such great accents. It was freezing up in Fargo, wind chill advisories and warnings reaching -40 degrees. You know it's cold when you pull into a grocery store parking lot and there are multiple cars running without anyone in them. Here's a picture from the Kraft Fargo branch. It was a great experience.

Loved New in Town - while people 'round here don't actually talk that extreme, if you venture more NORTH WEST (hello Fargo - Moorhead, it's closer.)
Aren't you glad you showed up in the coldest week of the season? FRIGID!
Isn't it bad for your "mental state" for it to be that cold? Just a thought.
Anyway, congrats on the new job.
We already miss you tons.
Hey, if you came back to SLC we'd be happy to recreate the New In Town feel for ya so you would feel at home. Honest!
Too cold for suits?
