JoAnn has been working her ass off for years. Team members have come and grown. The business has moved...multiple times. I started working there back in January. The timing was perfect. 3 hours 2 days a week. Which turned into 5 hours. Which turned into 3 days. Then 4. The company is growing. Catalogs are buying her pottery...and she still touches the clay for a ridiculous amount of time each and every day. The store is up and stocked. Classes are offered. Special events draw in whole families to enjoy a moment together. Girl Scout Troops, birthday parties, art shows...you name it. It is a company based on good old fashioned hard work, creativity, service and passion.
Today we sat around a table complete with a box of donuts and had our first official staff meeting. There is a ton going on and plenty to do so we needed to join up and figure things out. It's a great batch of people. I am glad to have a job in these tough times. I am blessed to have a flexible one that allows me to be where I am needed. I am lucky to be around some hysterical and kind and wonderful people. JoAnn, Leigh Ann, John, Christa, MJ, and who could forget Flash...thank you. The universe also needs a big fat thank you from me for this one...with or without the Boston Cream!
