Greetings from Tampa Bay, Florida!

Happy Sunday!

How do you create and maintain a fun culture when everyone works remotely? Well, you plan in-person get-togethers and combine work and pleasure!

I am proud to work with talented people like Ashton Jarrell, Rachel Woodyard, Chelsie Turnbough-Cook, LucyAnn Ferguson, and Brittany Owens!

Thursday night we grabbed a group dinner at Kobe Japanese Steak House in Clearwater.

Friday morning was team breakfast meetings and training.

Over the noon hour, Ashton, LucyAnn, and I met with a current client for lunch and were happy to meet them finally in person.

Friday evening was Texas de Brazil and we stuffed ourselves silly and had the meat sweats!

Always good to spend time with your team in person and get to know them better.

I’m Ray Ruecker with Connect 5000. Cheers!

PS: Tampa, Florida is warmer than Kansas City! I went from 85 and sunny to 40 and rainy and cold!
