T-shirt Packing Unicorn Interns

October 16th, 2009 | by Ben

unicorn-thmJust wanted to update all our friends who won MailChimp t-shirts during our recent twitter / facebook giveaway, and are anxiously awaiting their prize. Um yeah, 1,000 t-shirts take a really, really long time to pack.

So yesterday, we had a t-shirt packing party where the whole company folded and packed.

Even our Unicorn intern pitched in…

Everybody grab some shirts and envelopes…

A handful of them were packed with personal notes on business cards (”send help”), stickers, pins, etc.

Some engineers even snuck out of their caves* to help:
