“I always feel better when I go the gym in the morning!,” Jeff Hennen contributed to the question of “How are you this morning?” from General Manager Chuck Easters when he arrived at work this morning.
Yep, the bug has hit Milton Ruben, and we are inhaling as much of that contagious little devil as we can – the healthy bug.
Employees all over three stores were gobbling down salads yesterday afternoon after their first weigh-in to our recently launched Lose Baby Health Initiative, and we couldn’t be more proud!
As a part of a new approach to employee development, we decided that one of the best ways to keep our customers happy, is to keep our employees happy – and healthy. This launched a voluntary ninety-day program of educating, motivating, and encouraging one another to stay focused and Lose, Baby!
Our focus on this ninety-day round is healthy weight loss, keeping a confidential record of percentage weight lost per individual, and helping one another stay on track with weekly healthy goodies, and informative and educational materials on proper diet and fitness. Our top priority is overall physical and mental health, being positive, supportive, and encouraging throughout, and keeping our eye on successfully working as a team to be a healthier company. (If you are an employee participating in the program, check your e-mail for information on joining our motivational Facebook group!)
Stay focused, folks, and Lose, Baby!
