Earlier this week, we had the pleasure of attending the The Chicago Building Congress networking event at Gibson's Italia Rooftop. It was a beautiful evening, awesome venue and a great oppurtunity to connect with peers in our industry. #TheConstructionPeople #Networking #ChicagoBuildingCongress

We didn't exactly party like it was 1999 but we did come together to celebrate Scott Larson's and Mary Tynan's 25 years of dedication, hard work, and memories with WBO. Mary and Scott were instrumental in making sure our Quattro pro spreadsheets did not succumb to Y2K and thus we were able to survive and grow. We are extremely fortunate to have so many employees like Mary and Scott who have dedicated their careers to our family at W.B. Olson. "Like" if you had to google either Y2K or Quattro Pro or just to "Celebrate" Scott & Mary. #TheConstructionPeople #WorkAnniversary #25Years
