Yesterday, Robbie and I had lunch at Pepitos with a bunch of people we worked with thirty years ago at St. Joseph’s Home for Children in south Minneapolis. It was my first job (child care worker) after college… and it was there that she and I met and fell in love.
It’s pretty unusual for a group of people who worked together for only a few years (two, in my case; five for Robbie) to be regularly getting together socially with one another after three decades. It’s a testimony to the culture, the leadership, and the shared commitment that was present.
I’ve only come close to this experience once before, and that was with gofast.net, now part of Agiliti. The gofast web site pages that reflect a bit of the culture we had are still up, I recently discovered… inadvertantly, of course, so shhhhhh. Take a look around starting with the About Us page, especially the party and staff pages.
