Recognition Roundup May 29, 2014


It’s time for another Recognition Roundup! We've had so much this week- we had to write another blog post!  We have some amazing superstars and we want to make sure they are getting the recognition they deserve.

First, we have Rhonda Brashears. Rhonda is the Assistant Manager at Lapel. She was nominated by her manager Kim Smith.

“My associate manager Rhonda has been pulling doubles since we lost our full time 3rd shifter. She has pulled all these extra hours while having two deaths in her family in the same weekend. She is one of the most committed associates that I have ever had! Thank you Rhonda for your hard work!”

Rhonda you are most definitely a SUPERSTAR! Thank you for your dedication and all your hard work! You continue to WOW us every single day!
              
Next up we have the Oaklandon Crew and Manager Michelle Garner! They were nominated by Jennifer and Evan Williams who recently participated in Lemonade Day in front of their store to help raise money for the homeless.

“I am writing to thank you for allowing my son Evan to use your Oaklandon Road Store Location for Lemonade Day last weekend. Your manager there, Michelle Garner, was very accommodating to us and your customers were extremely generous. Evan ended up earning $164 in lemonade sales and tips. $64 will go to benefit the homeless families at DaySpring Center. Thanks again! 

Way to WOW our Customers and set a good example for our Community Oaklandon and Michelle!

                


Third, on our roundup list is Tammy Burke the Store Manager at Alexandria. See what one of her CSR’s, Teandra Pritchett had to say about her.

“I could not ask for a better manager. Tammy at Alexandria is my store manager; I have not been employed all that long, under a year. I took up a second job, which will end up being my full time career. I make enough to quit, but the stores' employees, and Tammy most of all, keep me there with no intentions of quitting. She is so very understanding, I feel confident in any problem I have. Above all else, she works with me with this other job, and I still am able to keep my hours. What pulled at me the most, is this current schedule. I work long days at the other job. She tells me she set it up where I had two complete days off both jobs. This may not seem like much, but it's like a very big hug. To know she thought of me means much more to me then she knows. (I know she does this with all of us, never holding grudges or personal issues with us. She is a very rare person/manager, coming from my work experience this far).  Tammy has made my life easier.  I know there are others out there doing great things and are rarely appreciated for their hard work.

 

We could not agree with Teandra more! Thank you so much for your recognition of Tammy and Tammy, thank you for everything you do for your employees, your customers, and for us. You are a SUPERSTAR and you continue to WOW us!

                
Next on this issue of the recognition roundup- we have  Karen Bergstrom- or as most of us call her- KB! KB is our Human Resources Assistant and resident go to person at the Corporate Office. She was nominated by Tracy Fowler.

“I want to recognize KB. She truly is awesome with her continuous training of me. She is always so helpful whenever I need it! I have called on her with last minute needs and she is always right there. Thank you for all you do KB!

KB- You are most definitely a SUPERSTAR! You WOW us every single day! Thank you for always being quick to respond and on the top of your game!
                


Finally on this issue of the recognition roundup we have Store Manager Rich “The Godfather” Girman. Rich is the Store Manager of West 38th Street. He has been an employee with Rickers since the takeover of the AM/PM market in 2008. He will be retiring at the end of this month. From all of us here at Rickers, Congratulations on your retirement. We will miss you Godfather. Thank you for your years of dedication to Ricker Oil Company. You are SUPERSTAR.
