TQS takes on school

Back to school, eh? That’s got us thinking. And remembering. Thinking and remembering. That’s what we’re doing. Fondly or not, we’re flashing back to our old school days—and we’re inviting you to experience every bad haircut, heartache, and hardship we endured along the way. Does anyone have a happy memory from kindergarten to college graduation? […]
TQS takes on pet projects

What are these pet projects we speak of? Somewhere between hobbies and a side hustles, our pet projects are pursuits of passion outside the typical nine-to-five. That means YouTube videos, podcasts, thousands of Instagram followers—and that’s just one Quilted Squirrel staffer! (Spoiler: It’s Tyler.) But a few others do some pretty cool stuff outside of […]
TQS takes on pets: Cats or dogs?

Welcome to the not-so-secret world of pet owners. We’ve been yappin’ a bit about Barkology, Buffalo’s first and only indoor dog park and bar—mostly because we just revamped its website with some fresh photos and what-not. Then someone on Slack was like, “Yo, cats or dogs?” So we rambled on about that for a minute. […]

Words of encouragement: Why word choice matters in the workplace

Has this ever happened to you? For better or worse—consciously or not—you’ve gotten in your head about the smallest, “stupidest” things, many of which involve certain words or wording. Misinterpreting your value in the simplest conversations. “What am I even talking about?” Second-guessing yourself. “Why did I say that?” Grappling with internal criticisms. “You are […]
TQS takes on golf

“Fore!” That’s what we’re yelling because look out! Our Quilted Squirrel staffers are taking on golf. And why not? Golf season is in—ahem—full swing. With the PGA Championship teeing off tomorrow and Father’s Day right around the corner, we’re ready to grip and rip it, whatever that means. What does that mean? It doesn’t matter. […]
Subscribe to our newsletter! [Video]

Subscribe Now! Because it’s the right thing to do. Don’t call it a newsletter! Actually, wait, yeah, it is a newsletter. You can totally call it that. But this newsletter is a little different. And by “different,” we mean “pretty much the same as everyone else’s.” Only better! Maybe. Sort of? At the very least, […]
Marmot Madness! Squirrels vs. Everybody

Hey yo. We’re gonna level with you here. We wanted to put together some sort of March Madness-inspired bracket for you to fill out, but we didn’t. Not enough time.
