Pinball Passion and Changing Norms
Richard Blank shares his sentimental attachment to his pinball machines, a collection rooted in nostalgia for the vibrant 1970s. “I'm living a 13-year-old dream, just having your own arcade,” he quips, underscoring his belief in blending professional demands with personal passions. Yet, his story isn't just about games — it's about adapting to forced transitions, like the shift to remote work prompted by COVID-19. “Sometimes the best changes are when your dad throws you in the deep end of the pool and says, swim,” he reflects, emphasizing resilience.
Navigating the New Work Landscape
Ryan Purvis probes into the transformative effects of remote work on business operations. Richard candidly admits, “The labor pool prefers working from home... But I'm old school, I'd like to see people.” While embracing technology, he stresses the irreplaceable value of human interaction and the spontaneity of office conversations. The switchover to cloud-based systems, a critical move for many businesses, also forms a large part of their discussion.
Wrap-up:
