Merry Christmas!
The holiday party season is in full swing! Below is a sampling of the different festivities that have been held the past couple of weeks. Wishing everyone a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!
Years of Service
Congratulations:
Dan Trebesch (Hatchery Sanitation with Select Genetics in Foley, MN – pictured right with Supervisor CJ Wheeler) celebrated 15 years with the company this year.
Happy Birthday!
Lavonne Schow (Scheduling & Logistics for Select Genetics) celebrated her 65th Birthday on November 24th. Her co-workers helped her celebrate by surprising her with a cake and decorating her cubicle. Her favorite team, the Minnesota Vikings, also gave her a win for Thanksgiving the day before. Pictured left to right Corey Nelson, Craig Frederick, Lavonne Schow and Gail Bertsch
Spotlight on Benefits!
Health Savings Account (HSA) Update 
As a benefit to our partnership with The HSA Authority powered by Old National Bank to provide health savings account options to our employees, new HSA debit chip cards are being issued with integrated fraud protection to assist in safeguarding your account.
As new cards are issued to employees with an HSA, Old National Bank will send communications to employees explaining changes: the new design and technology, how to activate new cards and dispose of old cards and where to find additional information on their website.
If you have any questions regarding new card features, log on to Old National Bank at www.oldnational.com/emv or call their Client Care line at 1-800-731-2265, Monday – Friday, 7am – 7pm or Saturday 7am – 2pm, CST. To access your account via the HSA Authority, log onto www.theHSAauthority.com.

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to All!!
Interviewing Humor
I’ve come across several videos poking fun at the interviewing behaviors and expectations of next generations #notstereotypingmillennialsatall and this one was too good not to share!! Luckily, I’ve never experienced an interview like this one! It’s a MUST see if you are involved in the interviewing process, or just need a little laugh!
