In November 2017 I met with Michelle Tickle & that same afternoon I met with the client for an…read moreinterview. I started working the very next day... I can not say enough about Michelle at Priority Staffing. She listened to everything that I was looking for & matched me with the perfect employer. Fast forward to February 2018, & I was offered a permanent position with this employer. Priority Staffing is a great way to find employers that you would probably never cross paths with otherwise. Michelle is very knowledgable & I would recommend anyone that is looking for a job/career to contact her. She is amazing!! : D

At first I was overly selective about job offers, but eventually I really just needed to get back…read moreto work & put some cash in my bank account (that mortgage ain't gonna pay itself!). Michelle has been very helpful in contacting me with emails when positions aligned with my skill set, I still think I'm underpaid at every corner, but it's a good experience for me to start getting some private sector references as I transition out of the military. The private sector has it's issues, but I sure like the flexibility to say no or just to look for another job. It took a minute to get placed, but that was my own doing as I was being very picky.

I'm in the midst of a major purge. As a part of the purge, I had bags of documents that needed…read moreshredding. I have 2 good shredders. But the amount of time it would require was overwhelming, Eggleston Shredding & Document Center came to the rescue. The timing has to be quick. Drop Off service is only available from 9 - 2 M-F. My visiting son had to work from home on Friday. He would be leaving on Sunday. So I worked till midnight going through the bags to separate the trash from the shredding items so he could get them in the vehicle ready to leave early the next morning. The Shredding & Documents Center is located on N Military Highway. The building doesn't face Military Highway but it's a very visible presence. There is a large drive through at the front of the building with numerous trash cans, similar to our city recycling bins, sitting out front. Walk into a very large lobby with a cashier style glass covered area with a friendly employee behind. She instructed us to take a bin, empty our bags and containers into it, then bring the container inside to pay. If I had known the size of the bin I could have saved the time in separating junk mail. The bin could handle a huge amount of documents. The cost, $45 per bin, was unbelievable. What a tremendous amount of time was saved for such a small cost. The employee explained that the bin would be taken immediately back & dumped into the shredder. A human hand would never touch my documents. Even better, they recycle the shredded paper. She provided me with a Certificate of Destruction & a receipt. We were then on our way. Eggleston is so much more than a source for shredding. They employ individuals with disabilities & provide them the chance to learn skills & gain confidence in their abilities and independence. Improving their quality of life through multiple programs is to be applauded. Among the services they provide to 1,500 individuals at 22 locations are rehabilitation services such as Day Support, Residential Support, Brain Injury Services, Veterans Programs & Community Employment. Business Services include Document Shredding & conversion of paper to digital. They do Commercial Landscaping, prepare donated vehicles for auction, and a number of additional services. A retail Garden Center & Farmers Market is also operated. Their work with the federal government includes commercial laundry, food service, mail room & custodial. What a wonderful mission this non profit begun in 1955 has for the people who need help in becoming employable. Eggleston was a great source for bulk shredding for me. But even better, the shredding of my documents provided learning skills to those who need it the most.

Eggleston is a great place to work. They do a great help allowing people who have a disability…read morehave a job. No matter what type of disability. It's great that Eggleston will work with that employee, with their needs. Considering their transportation, or other needs that employee needs. And a good place to learn something new that a person didn't know, because of all the jobs Eggleston has in different cities. The Laundry is great doing so many bases around our area, helping them out that way.

We had a wonderful experience with Mr. Odom at Navigation Academy…read more Mr. Odom was always prompt, professional and easy to communicate with. From our first phone call to linking up via Zoom and eventually meeting Mr. Odom in person, it has always been such a positive experience. Our daughter has a very busy schedule which made it really hard to find a time for her driving lessons. Mr. Odom went above and beyond to get us on his schedule. Mr. Odom is a wonderful, patient and kind instructor. Our daughter grew to be a more confident driver and got a lot of helpful driving tips from Mr. Odom. We highly recommend Mr. Odom with Navigation Academy!
