Meet Jean S.
by: Steve Brose

Jean has been working at Indepak since March of 1989.  She started as an entry level machine operator in our Thermoforming Department and has progressed to a level 3 operator, our highest level.  She recognizes the many co-workers who have helped train her and helped her gain experience in our process and in quality assurance.  Jean also appreciates the help she has received from our Production Manager, Bernd.  She says that Indepak is a good company to work for and feels fortunate to work for the owners Jan and Dave Aho.

Jean was born in New York.  She moved to California during pre-school years, went to High School in Portland, Oregon and was married in Idaho.  She and her husband Peter have been married for 35 years and have 4 children.

She enjoys walks on the beach, camping, and finds gardening and pulling weeds relaxing.  She also enjoys spending time with her grandkids.  Her and Peter are currently remodeling their entire house from the bottom up.  When they are finished, the next project is a new roof.

Co-worker comments:
"She's a great operator, really knows about quality.  She does a great job."

"I love her dearly.  She is a best friend.  She's highly trained and a very good operator."

"She is really dedicated and does a good job.  She is fun to talk to."

Thanks for letting us feature you this month Jean.  We appreciate your contribution and wish you the best!
