MERRY CHRISTMAS & HAPPY NEW YEAR
FROM PARALLEL TECHNOLOGIES 

A CHRISTMAS PRANK
WHO DOESN'T ENJOY A CHRISTMAS SURPRISE?
This year at Parallel Technologies we created a digital Christmas card to say thank you to all of our customers and partners. In this video, we interviewed employees about their "Christmas Wish" - what the interviewees didn't know, is that the filmmakers had something else up their sleeves...

ESCAPE ROOM
PARALLEL SALES TEAM OUTING 
While on a mission to intercept information in order to foil a terrorist attack on the Bank of England, the Parallel Sales team (MI6 agents) were captured by Count David of Liverpool. The Count had the team held hostage in the basement of the World Bank, WITH A BOMB! Their mission was to free themselves, find the deactivation mechanism, and escape the room before it exploded. Sadly, they failed... BUT they had fun and captured this awesome picture!

UGLY SWEATER CONTEST
MAY YOUR SWEATER BE UGLY & BRIGHT
The Culture Committee hosted a Holiday celebration for all of the employees to come together and show off their ugliest Christmas sweaters. This festive social hour included cookies, fudge, truffles, hot chocolate and caribou coffee. John Ray took first place with his hideous sweater, winning himself the trophy (and bragging rights) for a year and a $50 Visa gift card!
