August EOTMAugust and September Employees of the Month

David Peterson, Craig Bartow

August: David consistently steps up to the plate to deliver a consistent high-level of service. In July, David had several customer conversions on which to work, and worked many weekends to ensure that the deadlines would be met.

September: Craig was nominated because he's been very helpful to others within eEmpACT when they needed assistance on projects. He would drop what he was doing to help answer questions. Craig assisted both the Technology and Product Development areas to help resolve issues, which allowed for deadlines on the projects to be met.

Congratulations to both of you on your hard work and dedication to the team!
