When it’s your turn to Q, you always find that extra gear to push the pax outside of their comfort zone. Legion always has that extra pressure to exceed the expectation of the pax. Word came late in the evening that JarJar was bringing in another FNG. We are not really sure what he does over at the VA, but YHC is convinced that he is running some sort of underground FNG incubator program. He has brought in many FNGs over the last two years. His five step program seems to be: 1-stalk new victim, 2-hand out candy, 3-build trust, 4-convince them they are ready, 5-push them to the front lines of hell at Legion. YCH was ready to extend a warm welcome to our young (<30) FNG.
Conditions: 68 degrees, 88% humidity. (it was nice and cool for about 3 minutes).

Moleskin:
It was awesome to have another FNG join us at Legion. There is a art to keeping a Q tough for everyone, while also not discouraging a FNG. There was a Merlot Spill on Damson Hill, but kudos to FNG SnapChat for keeping CrabWalk position while making room for breakfast! He never gave up, and finished strong.
