While COVID-19 has taken so much from us in the past two months it has also given us the opportunity to learn, evaluate and see life from a unique perspective.

Tune in tonight at 9 p.m. to hear from our HR specialist, Jodi Schafer, owner of HRM Services - http://workwithhrm.com/

Jodi discusses the challenges of how to return to work safely and what that means for both the employer and employee. As Phil likes to say, Jodi helps put the cookies on the lower shelf.

As always, FOOD FIRST!
