Bill Manago Wins Infonomics "Life in ECM" Contest

The team here is pretty excited about our own Bill Manago, the director of our records management practice, for penning the winning entry of a recent Infonomics Weekly contest about "Life in ECM." Here is the entry, which was chosen for the top spot by Infonomics readers:
I was at a store purchasing 25 small plastic buckets for a class I teach on the "Big Bucket vs. Small Buckets" theory of retention management. A little girl, about 5 years old, sat in her mother's shopping cart in an adjacent line. She pointed at the buckets and asked if I had that many kids. I laughed, said no and that I was buying them for a class I was teaching at work. She turned to her mommy and said "that man works at the playground and he gets paid to play in the sand. Can daddy get a job like that?"

For his efforts, Bill will receive an Infonomics hoodie "and "the adulation of the masses." Congrats Bill!
