”Rose has been an integral teammate for the office of Career Services. Her determination and attention to detail allows for even the largest of events to go smoothly. Her quality customer service and friendly disposition greet students, faculty, staff, and current employers day in and day out. Rose has taken the time to fill in when needed on a variety of tasks for both Academic Services and Career Services. She accepts new responsibilities without question and provides results that exceed expectations.

Dear Tember,

Congratulations!  On behalf of the Staff Advisory Council, we would like to announce that you have been selected as an Excellent Eagle Employee.  To thank you for such a wonderful job, you will have a reserved parking spot of your choosing from Friday, November 2 – Friday, November 30.

Here is what one of your co-workers said about you:

“Tember should be recognized as an Excellent Eagle Employee because, simply put, she is a model of excellence.  She goes above and beyond her duties, never hesitating to stop her detailed focus on the mounds of paperwork and data she deals with daily, to help a fellow employee or student.  I have been the recipient of her helpfulness on several occasions.  Rest assured, she gets right back on task to complete her job.  Students love her enthusiasm and sense of humor.  She instantly puts worried students at ease with her calm and caring manner, not to mention her extensive knowledge of all the requirements of the Education program.  Tember is the epitome of caring and sharing her knowledge to help others.  She is adaptable and flexible in her position.

Tember has been an employee at UMW for decades, working in various departments.  She is a great asset to the UMW community and someone the UMW faculty and staff need to recognize for her contribution in helping make UMW a quality institution.”

DJ Garcia – S.A.C. Excellent Eagle Employee for October

Dear DJ,

Congratulations!  On behalf of the Staff Advisory Council, we would like to announce that you have been selected as an Excellent Eagle Employee.  To thank you for such a wonderful job, you will have a reserved parking spot of your choosing from Monday, October 1 – Wednesday, October 31.

Here is what one of your co-workers said about you:

“Most impressive is the quality of customer service that DJ delivers, and the demeanor with which he delivers it during even the most demanding – and sometimes trying – of times. Keep Calm…Carry On is taped to his desk overhead.  He lives that motto and more:  Keep Kind and Carry On.  Keep Consistent and Carry On.  Keep Patient and Carry On.  Keep Helpful and Carry On.

From August 22 –29, (following two 65 hour work weeks), there is a line at DJ’s counter from store open until store close.   Each person receives DJ’s full attention; each person has their question answered, problem solved.  Phone is ringing, emails are pinging in, textbook orders are changing, four people are calling his name at once; shipments are delivered to the wrong schools… Keep Calm, Carry On…  Amidst it all, DJ sets the bar for customer service at its highest level.  He is smiling.  He is making students smile.  One has to see him in action to understand; in is an amazing sight.  I will strive to bring my own customer service skills in line with DJ’s!”
