Questions:
Is Katie Tripp a graphic artist?
What defines a graphic artist?
Is she now designing glass for Blenko?
Recently at a glass show she
said she was the graphic artist.
Also how can Blenko afford to pay $85K for a VP / graphic artist?
They paid Carter less than $40K and Bayliss is making well anyways you get my gest.
That salry would pay for 3 or more glass workers.
