We’ve taken a few minutes to interview the team members at Blur asking the question, what are you thankful for?

Some answers are silly, some are serious, but all are heartfelt. I hope that as you listen to this, it spurs you to think about your own life and recognize the good in this year. 

  • This year I’m thankful that me and my family have stayed healthy. 
  • I’m just thankful for the year. It’s gone by so fast. I have a brand new great granddaughter, so that makes two. So I’m thankful for that. Just thankful for that we got all moved into the new facility. Shop looks great and we’re all set and ready to go.

  • I’m thankful for my family, my friends, my health, and all this natural light that we get at our new office.

  • I’m thankful that my grandma is recovering from her stroke. 
  • I am thankful for the new building that we just remodeled and that’s coming along great. And for my dog, Coast. And just friends and family in general. 
  • I’m thankful for 80’s hair metal and the better world it has given us to the use of spandex. 
  • I’m thankful to work with a bunch of really passionate nerds who are actually really happy to do what they’re doing and help out. 
  • I’m thankful for my new job.

  • So I’m thankful for all the blessings that I have, the countless blessings, including my wife and my soon to be one year old kid. 
  • I’m thankful for a really good writing pen. 
  • I’m thankful for office dogs. 

As a company, we have a lot to give thanks for. 

We’re thankful for our employees who tackle complex problems head-on and are never afraid of a challenge. Without them, there would be no Blur. 

We’re thankful for the Blur team members we’ve gained this year who bring fresh insights and ideas into the workplace. 

We’re thankful for moving into new R&D and manufacturing buildings that will give us the space to grow. 

Lastly, we’re thankful for each and every one of our clients that trust us to help them along their journey of product development. Because of their belief in our team, we’ve gotten to develop some truly exceptional medical devices that are changing and saving lives. 

From everyone at Blur, a heartfelt Happy Thanksgiving.
