Mezuri Systems' Lead Engineer Wins the Skills Competition at EHX Home Automation show

The lead engineer at Mezuri Systems has recently earned the distinction of being the best installer at the EHX Orlando, perhaps even the world. The EHX show is dedicated to Audio Video, Multi Room Music and Home Automation. Zushie Rimler (seen here) dazzled the judges and left the competition grasping at frayed Cat5 wires as he proceeded to win every category and elegantly handed everyone a massive can of whoop.
You may be asking yourself “What is an ADI Skills Competition?” or “Why doesn’t the corner store sell my favorite tortilla chips?” which are two very important and relevant questions. First of all, the ADI Skills Competition is targeted to the men and women that install low voltage home systems. The first challenge presented to Zushie was to snake a wire through a wall. Not as easy as it may sound, considering that most people are unable to see through walls. Am I right or am I right? Fortunately for Mezuri Systems, Zushie is the best of the best. Later, watching Zushie terminate a Cat5 felt equivalent to observing a butterfly emerge from the cocoon -- so inspiring that you felt like you could almost cry a little bit. Not contorted-face crying though, more like single-tear crying, which is much more attractive. Second of all, it seems that when you consistently buy your favorite tortilla chips and the store runs out, they don’t bother replacing them even though they are selling well. Who is stocking the goods around here?
Another challenge was wire labeling and I will admit, I was nervous for Zushie. Right in front of where he was standing was one of those digital clocks with large bright red numbers, taunting Zushie, the numbers quickly increasing, reminding him of his uncertain fate. Well it turns out that Zushie smoked the competition in that one too. Count it!
As the winner of the ADI Skills Challenge, Zushie gained the respect and admiration of the people, which is a thrill in and of itself. However nobody cares about that. Winners want prizes or better yet some cold hard cash. Zushie, who at this point is the coolest person to ever set foot in the EHX CE Pro Home Automation Event in Orlando, walked away with some extraordinary merchandise that would certainly befuddle most other people. The prizes included a Dymo labeler for all your label needs, a Platinum Tools termination kit, a Dymo business card scanner and a Magnet snake kit. Not to mention the delight of seeing his name in big black Sharpie on the whiteboard of winners. Score!
An insignificant and easily overlooked point that is not even worth mentioning is that the MC of the skills competition was one of those dudes with a microphone that does not really know how to use it, i.e. shoving it into unsuspecting people’s faces. Come on man, don’t do that.
Way to go Zushie!
