Shout Outs

Troy has been a rockstar in the food court lately. We have had numerous pieces of equipment go down lately and he is always there with a smile on his face, and he never gives up until he figures out a solution. He even makes special trips to come back by and check on us to make sure everything is still operating correctly. He has gone so far above and beyond and if it weren't for him, we would not be operating the way we are.

Thanks Troy,

You have no idea how much you are appreciated!!
