The one thing that is nice about an airline like Southwest is not having to worry that a small/midsize roller bag fitting in the overhead storage bin. The tiny regional planes…it’s always a game to see if they want to fit today or not.

Curious to hear your protocol when someone lists their office and cell phones in their signature bio. Which do you call first? When do you call the other?

What makes HFW different? This is personal for me. I represent the fourth generation of my family to work for HFW. It just means more to us. I will never be out hawking something I don’t believe in or personally stand behind. I will work my butt off to ensure HFW is the best

Great weekend read. American Made is more challenging than it should be, but can still be done. wsj.com/style/fashion/…

I love listening to live musical performances. Hard to beat the energy, the crowd, even some of the small mistakes that make a performance unique. The best musicians also sound best live, in my opinion. Gives the music a new dimension.

One of the crazy things about social media is receiving messages from people who I thought were just bots but turn out to be really cool people. I have met some really impressive men and women whose social media presence is often limited to an account without a profile picture

We quoted a large project today that came as a referral from one of our new customers. The power of relationships is unmatched. Took me some time to get comfortable in the manufacturing world, but we are rolling now!

Traveling extensively for work, I don’t understand why it is an accomplishment to have X amount of miles or X number of nights in a hotel. My mentality is always to do the most with less. Get in, get out, get back home. And I don’t even have kids yet!

Let’s just be clear: none of us are as cool as these badasses tugging a 615’ vessel around a 90 degree turn in a channel not much wider than the freighter.

So many people moving jobs every few years. It’s as if our society is devolving into temporary work. So much institutional knowledge being lost. I’m curious to learn more. If you’ve moved around a bit over the last couple years, what were the main drivers behind your decisions?

Friendly persistence wins. Don’t spam; don’t send automated, robotic follow ups; don’t get frustrated and quit. Follow up periodically. Check in and have something to offer. Plant seeds.
