In light of this week’s Thanksgiving Holiday, I thought I would take a minute to share a few thoughts with our loyal movers and shakers.
Personally, this past year has given me many blessings to be thankful for (i.e. graduating from Akron, getting engaged and moving into the next chapter of life) but I truly believe that being given the opportunity to work for Cleveland Vibrator was the beginning of the “good vibe train” life has thrown my way. Over the span of one short year, I have gained so much from coming to work day in and day out here at Cleveland Vibrator. One can only appreciate the great perks of working for a smaller company simply by experiencing it for themselves. So here’s a few things we are thankful for…
We are the Cleveland Vibrator Family – Having less than 30 people on staff makes for an atmosphere that is like home. We have guys that have been a part of this family for close to 45 years. With their guidance and experience, we have propelled our product development sky high over the past few years, introducing 2 new product lines in just 2014 alone – the Vacuum Mount Series and our newly released DC Trailer Hopper Vibrators. Above that, we strive to make our customers feel like family by treating them and whatever bulk material problem as if it were happening in our own plant.
We have stood the test of time – Having survived the massive fluctuation of the economic state the U.S. has experienced over the past century, we have managed to stay in business through it all. With the help of our loyal customers, Cleveland Vibrator has had the privilege to work with over 15,000 organizations to solve bulk material handling challenges since 1923.
We have the ability to meet our customers face-to-face – Over this past year, we have been fortunate enough to be able to engage with customers in great trade shows settings such as GEAPS, IAOM, PBE and PBS which just ended last week in Montreal. Also something special to note, our sales crew is constantly making “house calls” to make sure our products are performing at top notch standards. To a “rookie” like myself, the travelling is a great extra perk to the job and I know that on behalf of the rest of the crew, and I think it is safe to say that this aspect to the job is something we thoroughly enjoy having the opportunity to do.
Our future is bright – With our industries we serve expanding onto a global scale, our product line is multiplying greatly, and our Fabricated Vibratory Equipment Department keeping extremely busy, I believe that our company can only move up as we move forward into the future.
One final note – As an employee of Cleveland Vibrator, I am grateful that I have a job that I love coming to everyday. Under the leadership of fantastic management and gaining the wisdom of our long-time Cleveland Vibrator family members, this company has given me more than I could ever want in a job. I know I am stressing the “family” aspect, but there is simply no other way to put it. Just this morning, every member received a turkey to enjoy with their families on Thursday and we are also provided a beautiful Honeybaked Ham for Christmas. These are old-time gestures that you don’t hear of very often anymore…
So this week, make sure you take the time to count your blessings. From The Cleveland Vibrator Family to yours, Happy Thanksgiving! #ShakeOn!
