Thank You for Doing What You Do.

We are now into the dog days of summer and for many people it has been the hottest and driest in memory. We have experienced record temperatures in our area and very little rain fall. These sunny how days have been nice if you have a week off, but can take a tool on the employee that works in them daily. As I have spent a lot of time on our shop floor in the last few weeks and watched as our employees have pushed through to make sure the customer received their products I thought it was a good time to say…Thank you.

Thank you to the employees that work through the heat  and high humidity, near furnaces or burning steel rods and still continue to put out good quality products.

 

Thank you to the inside sales and customer service reps who in spite of having no control if we do have a quality error or our trucking company has a break down, they act both cheerful and professional no matter how angry the customer acts.

Thank you to the sales persons who tra

vels to areas where customers are and miss time with family and friends I the great summer days so we can continue to gain orders.

Thank you to the administrator who makes sure all of the details that need to be completed are not missed and that all others see us operating seamlessly.

Thank you to the technical team who crawls under, over and threw equipment when required to make sure that we do not loose valuable production time.

Thank you to our leaders who work to keep up morale and ensure that our resources are provided with the right tools to continually do the jobs they do.

 

Sometimes it is so easy to forget that even though we are paid and we have some breaks, it is not always enough to come in to work. Sometimes we need to realize that as people we do this because we care and are appreciated and that at times is a simple as saying thank you.

 

Cheers Lorne

  1. Lorne,
    Thank YOU for writing this post. It reminds us all that those 2 words are so powerful and sincere. Everybody likes to be recognized for their hard work. It isn’t just good manners that our parents taught us, it is about respecting the people around you.
