It gives us great pleasure to announce the 20th anniversary of 2 staff at Sleep’s Plumbing.
Congratulations Karen and Stewart!
Deb and I are so glad Karen did not turn around and head back through the door she walked in when she first arrived to our make shift office.
Karen reminded us this morning of the piles of manilla folds where many and mounted high.
Stewart’s arrival twenty years ago is equally memorable. Jamie recalls the relief when he handed over the work phone to him allowing me to be free from an active mobile phone.
Karen and Stewart’s employment with Sleep’s Plumbing is integral. Without their capacity to be flexible, professional, adaptive, offer amazing customer experiences, be open to Jamie’s continued undiagnosed tourette’s outbursts, then Sleep’s Plumbing would have went under a long time ago.
In their past 20 years of employment with Sleep’s Plumbing the business has been relocate three times. From the ground floor of the residential shed where Jamie and Deb lived, to the loft area of the same shed. To 3 Butt St, and finally to 13 Butt St, Canadian.
Sleep’s Plumbing have employed a number of plumbers and apprentices in those past twenty years. They include:
Jason Douglas, Mourice Monaghan, Stephen Orr, Rob Stojanovic, Todd Brennan Thomas Stewart, Nicholas Madden, Angus Peart, Bradley Woods, Jock Kennedy, Richard Burrows, Daniel Walkingshaw.
Karen and Stewart, Thankyou for being there. For making those decisions that need to be made, answering the phone out of hours, for Bill’s Christmas cake, for helping Jamie make decisions, and for listening.
Whilst we doubt there will be a 40th year anniversary celebration, we sure are looking forward to your continued support and employment.
Cheers, Deb and Jamie Sleep.
