Q:  How long have you worked for the city of Columbus?  What keeps you here?  

A:  I have been here 30 years.  I enjoy my job and the people I work with.  I like being by myself in the truck.  I like the hours, the benefits.  I kind of think my job is fun, I get to drive a big truck!

Q:  How would you describe your work/life balance?

A:  There’s a good balance.  Because I start working at 6 a.m., I get off at 2:00 p.m., I am able to keep up with my family more easily.  I don’t have to deal with traffic going into work or going home.  I have time for my kids and for myself.  I have a lot of time to get my own ‘life’ stuff done.
