Re: Bringing awareness of FIRST @ The workplace.

It comes up in conversation quite a bit around work--I talk about it a fair bit, and they had warning on the way in after it was a topic in the interview. For the uninitiated, I've found that keeping a match or three handy on my iPhone (or whatever other device you keep handy) seems to get past the BattleBots question faster than explanations alone. I'm waiting on an event to give them a better understanding. (I was hired in May, so they haven't seen build season yet.
