Somara won (another) iPod!

What happened to the first one? I will defer that to Helen because I bought Somara’s first one (from an overtime contest at work last year) and gave it to the Matriarch of the Silder Republic of Potomac. A birthday-Christmas-anniversary present which covers a couple years.

Moving back to Somara, she earned this one as well but through her customer-handling skills. Hers were so good she scored a perfect grade for an entire quarter (13 weeks) which is no small feat in the world of phone support or any interaction with the general public; stats will prevent it from happening forever, aka my brother-in-law, the big shot doctor ordering at Taco Cabana. As a reward for this achievement, Apple awarded Somara a new 16G iPod Nano! I imagine she gets to choose the color.

A brand new iPod coming our way couldn’t have happened at a better time too. One of the customized features we wanted in our new Honda Fit was the USB hook-up to plug in an iPod; no more crappy Austin radio for us! After we dropped the money on its deposit, I proposed to Somara that as soon as Sam told us the car was in CA, we would then buy a refurbished iPod or if the price was right, a new one. Then the Fit was all set. She has amended the plan. This new iPod will remain her personal property and the one I bought her in 2006 (I think it’s a second generation Nano) will become the car’s. Not a problem for me. Four Gigs of tunes goes a long way (11 days on average if the 4000 songs were played).
