Blue Ion New Year’s Resolutions
2016, is here and along with the fireworks and hassle of having to buy a new planner comes the promise for self improvement and/or silly resolutions-mostly silly resolutions. We asked the team to share their goals for 2016 and several of our more ambitious or indecisive team members had multiple items on their to-do lists. It looks like this is going to shape up to be a fun year at Blue Ion. Cheers 2016!
