Wow, in reviewing our anniversary list, I discovered that September has been a busy month for hiring over the years. Four staff members had anniversaries in September.
Please join me in congratulating them!
Michelle Cecena, Director of Operations – 3 years
Araceli Flores, Production Manager – 7 years
Antonio, Sewing Machine Operator – 3 years
It’s hard to believe, but the summer has come to an end for another year. Here at Sew What? we had a terrific summer – we hope you did as well.
Congratulations to the Sew What? staff members with anniversaries in August.
Esther, Sewing Machine Operator – 10 years
Silvia Soler, HR / Sales Support – 8 years (yes, that’s me!)
Gloria, Sewing Machine Operator – 4 years
Those of you who are regular followers of this blog know that it truly is a team effort here at Sew What? Those of us in the office (sales staff, sales support, and management) may be the public face of the company, since we are the people communicating directly with our customers via e-mail, phone and fax. But we know that, without our dedicated manufacturing staff, we would not be able to provide our customers with the high quality products and service that we are known for. So, please join me in congratulating the Sew What? team members with anniversaries in June and July.
June
Tammy, Bookkeeper – 3 years
Alicia, Sewing Machine Operator – 1 year
July
Maria B, Sewing Machine Operator – 5 years
Congratulations, everyone, and thank you for your hard work and dedication to Sew What?
Hello followers of the Sew What Inc. Blog. I was asked to contribute to this blog on a regular basis, so I thought I’d tell you a bit about myself first, so you’d know something about the person posting.
I own and operate Grafix jam, Ltd. Over the last sixteen years I’ve worked as a graphic designer, illustrator and creative consultant to a multitude of industries which include everything from the automotive industry , sports and entertainment industries , toy and game industries to you name it. I became aware of Sew What, Inc. a few years ago through working with a long time client, Ted Nugent. As luck would have it, Megan remembered me from that project, so when she needed someone to assist with illustration of the monstrously sized Crue Fest II dual stage, she contacted me, and the synergy was instant. Since then I’ve been in-trusted with working directly on several projects for Sew What Inc’s most valued assets, their beloved clients.
This brings us to today. My love of all things stage, show and rock-n-roll and my skill-set has found a more permanent home at Sew What, Inc. I look forward to focusing my creative energy on you, the client, and working with and assisting you in any way I can. Thank you, Megan. I’m ready to get the show on the road….
It is that time again, the time that we acknowledge the anniversaries of Sew What? staff. There are about 30 staff members here at Sew What? Some of our staff members are more visible to our customers, especially our sales reps. But we also have many dedicated employees “behind the scenes,” working on our manufacturing floor day in and day out, making sure that our customers receive high quality custom stage curtains.
Today, I would like to acknowledge all of our manufacturing and warehouse staff for their longstanding dedication to Sew What? and our customers. Here are three of them with anniversaries in May:
Raul, Shipping & Receiving Coordinator – 8 years
Sara, Sewing Machine Operator – 8 years
Roberto, Sewing Machine Operator – 6 years
It’s that time again to celebrate the anniversaries of Sew What? staff members. We didn’t have any anniversaries in February, but we had several in March, including that of the very first Sew What? employee, Maria!
Please help me congratulate these employees on their anniversaries with Sew What?
Maria, Sewing Machine Operator – 13 years
Lynda Vaughn, General Manager – 7 years
Gwen Winter, Senior Sales – 2 years
Yes, I admit this is a little late, but I wanted to make sure to acknowledge the anniversaries of those employees who started at Sew What? in January. Interestingly enough, we have several employees with January anniversaries, but none in February.
Congratulations – between you, you have 15 years at Sew What? We are so glad to have you!
Veronica, Sewing Machine Operator – 5 years
Shane Nelsen, Creative Director / Senior Sales – 6 years
Vicente, Assistant Cutter – 4 years
Not surprisingly, hiring tends to slow down near the end of the year.
Since the list is quite small for November and December, I thought I would combine them in a single post.
November
Guillermina, Project Manager – 5 years
December
Susana, Sewing Machine Operator – 5 years
Congratulations to you both! We are looking forward to another five years (or more) with each of you.
Well, the Fall is upon us – it is hard to believe that Halloween is over and Thanksgiving is coming up in just a few months.
We have several employees who celebrated anniversaries last month – we are so happy to have them on the Sew What? Team.
Ana, Project Manager – 6 years
Daniel, Quality Control – 3 years
Maria “Chuy,” Sewing Machine Operator – 3 years
