In the spotlight: Mike Edwards

It will be 17 years in March that I work here. My duties are shipping, receiving, and scheduling loads to go out.  I do a lot of inventory checks over here and I even end up doing the janitorial work here too, since it’s just me. I like the fast pace. I like working on a team with good people like John (DiLiddo) and Sade (Hukanovic). We all help each other out.

I’m running the AR Metallizing’s second warehouse. I like it because if something happens, I know it’s on me – there’s no finger pointing. I like to keep the area clean. I really like the environment over here even though I don’t see as many people.

I also like the company and the product we produce. I enjoy the multitasking, communicating, ensuring that the quality is good to go out the door and loading trailers properly so they don’t get returned for being overweight.

What do you like to do outside of work?

I enjoy camping and being with the family and grandchildren. We like cruising and vacationing. I like helping my two daughters. They often ask me for help fixing things around their houses.
