All of us at Frause were so excited about starting a blog; we spent hours fighting over who would be responsible for the content. We drew straws, played rock paper scissors, even thumb wrestled for the honor. It turns out our interns have some strong thumbs (not to mention opinions). They also have the best opportunity to provide a “fly on the wall” look into the workings of Frause. Without further ado, we present Frause – through the eyes of our interns!

Soccer, Philosophy and PR

“Everybody’s inner philosopher, it seems, is released by soccer.”
-Roger Cohen, New York Times Columnist


Last week the Frause team attended the Sounders vs. Manchester United game, and my inner philosopher was indeed released.


Despite losing to Man U 7-0, I had a blast because I was with the Frause team. While in the stands, I was reminded of the common misconception that your “work life” is somehow separate from your “real life.” If you’re passionate about your job, then it’s easy to unite work and your real life to enjoy both. I have noticed this passion here in the office, on the weekends, and yes, even at the Sounders games. When someone at Frause has a great idea, they pitch it to the media. When they go shopping, they buy books about grammar. And when they volunteer, they commit themselves to help young professionals develop their skills.
