Trick or Treat!

Hi AutoCom-ers and former Interns!

Scary what happens in the office these days…
It was this special day in Detroit when AutoCom’s employees were not dressed as usual.

Most people call it Halloween. Germans would think it is a mix of Karneval and Saint Martin because people are dressed up as we do it for Karneval and children go door-to-door to ask for candies like on Saint Martin’s Eve. They do it in a very friendly way: TRICK OR TREAT!!!!

Let’s go back to what happened at AutoCom. You had to look twice to recognize the employees. There was a pregnant woman (btw: we are still looking for a name for the little boy. Ideas for a nice name can be sent to awilmes@usautocom.com).

But that wasn’t all; there was also a nerd, an angel of death, a Spartan fan, a little red riding hood and a German engineer.

Oh, and I almost forgot about the Michigan cowboy who actually changed his costume to become a Wolverine fan, and early contest that will conclude at 6 p.m. this Saturday. Even his dogs were dressed up…

Here you can see the winners of our internal election in the category “Best Halloween Costume 2008”. And the winner is…

… the pregnant lady…

Andrea Wilmes!!!! Applause!

We had so much fun in the office. We ate pizza for lunch together. We had a “Halloween Staff Meeting” and Maggie baked Halloween cupcakes which were delicious, thank you Maggie.

Hey former interns, how did you celebrate Halloween? We’d like to see some pictures. So, TRICK OR PICS!
