Tip of the Hat

Saturday, May 12, 2012 - 12:01 am

Recently, 12 Concordia Lutheran High School students came to my home with rakes and equipment, ready and willing to assist this 85-year-old with some spring chores. They mowed; washed windows, blinds and screens; edged walks; power-washed sidewalks ... chores that would have taken me a month or more to complete. They were courteous, hard-working, fun-loving and a joy to have in my home. Many thanks and kudos to Allie Miller, leader, and to this group of 12 faithful servants of God. Concordia can be proud of these students! They are our future!

Thanks to Staffmark and their employees, especially Andrea and Angie. Until recently, I was unemployed, and, during that time, I worked with three temporary staffing agencies in Fort Wayne and without a doubt Staffmark was the best! They serve their clients well, but more importantly to me as their employee, they treated me with honesty and respect, which is more than I can say for the other two agencies. They helped me during a very stressful time, and I cannot say enough nice things about them. If anyone finds themselves in need of a temporary staffing agency, I would highly recommend Staffmark.
