Crest Ink - Volume 34 - Number 01

Starting this past July, we have been featuring groups of employees in our Weekly Information Communication who have been nominated by Manag- ers because they embraced cooperation & teamwork to accomplish some- thing. Just a small way to say Thank You & help celebrate all of the “tri- umphs” that go on at Crest on a daily basis! Check out the last few months worth of triumphs at Crest Foods! Way to go Maria Ellis (Production A)! “Shout out to Maria Ellis for having immaculate documentation on dump paperwork. It makes QA’s job much easier when they need to find information. Thank you!” Way to go Jason Breeden (Sanitation B)! “Thanks to Jason Breeden for staying over into the C-Shift to help us finish a changeover while we had crews elsewhere. We appreciate the help!” Shout Out to our IT Department! “Accounting appreciates each and every one of you!” Kerry: Always makes sure we have an accurate and best print on our government filings! Not to mention handling any AS400 problems we have in our financial modules. Larry: Wrote and re-worked a query and image retrieval program for Accounting that will make reconciling accounts much easier! Andy: Maintains and re-calculates formulas as necessary in our Sales Data Warehouse to ensure our record keeping is accurate! Dan: Wrote a program to summarize and report potential future variances for Accounting & Purchasing to review ahead of entries posting to our system! Jonathan: Springs into action when the printer starts eating our checks and paper! Or when our PC just won’t work right! Mark: Helps us troubleshoot odd inventory discrepancies and other system issues. Way to Go Randy Otten, Austin Schimitto and Danielle Schmitto (Sanitation)! “Randy has been very de- pendable every day while Sanitation was short-staffed over the last month. Austin and Danielle came in on a Sun- day for a last minute allergen changeover so that the line was clean for a Monday start up!” Way to Go Anne Castro and Justin Lugo (Production B)! “Thanks for helping empty seasoning cones on line 85 after the line ran out of cartons at the end of the shift!” Way to Go Jon Harrison, Mike Spencer and Bevan Clark (Mix A)! “Thanks to Jon for helping us mix and fill boxes of shortening and chips! Thanks to Mike and Bevan for staying caught up while being short 1 person in their department!” Way to Go Mix Department! “Shout-out to the entire Mix Department for being able to keep up with mixing while having some of the crew help out in Production. Thanks for being so flexible when we have to blend with limited crews!” Way to Go Chris Pfoutz (North Plant)! “Thanks to Chris for staying late on a Friday to wait for FedEx to deliver new project samples and for also getting them stored properly. It’s appreciated!” Way to go Line 15 (Production B)! “Thanks to Cameron Thomas, Jesus Garcia, Kenneth Sturgeon, and Osi Ful- gencio! This crew has worked together (with many different stackers) for months on end on line 15, which is where we run heavy Bisquick and Angel Food products. Thanks for working so well together!” Way to Go Scheduling Department! “This team has really stepped up while we are experiencing supply issues like we’ve never seen before. Trying to stay on top of supplies, what can and can’t be run, and moving items around to prevent downtime has been a huge task, and I couldn’t be more proud of this team. Through it all they keep their sense of humor and positive attitudes! Way to go, you are all a pleasure to work with!” Team Triumphs
