Good comment

Below is a comment left on my blog posting titled - involvement-


Dave, the analogies on this blogspot are a testament to 'your INVOLVEMENT' with the company.I'm sure Paul Arpin would be proud ! I noticed on several occasions, in the past years, Paul would always come in on Sunday afternoons for a few hours.One Saturday night ( I was camped out @ HQ in my truck for the weekend ) it snowed about a foot or more.Well,lo & behold,this did not deter Mr.Arpin from 'his INVOLVEMENT' with the company!The green caddy arrived! Talk 'bout commitment!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thank you for your comment, we encourage everyone to leave comments and tell us some of your stories.

It is so true, Paul Arpin stayed involved every day. We were working once years ago at the home office and there was a bad storm and the office lost power. Paul told me to gather my board and tickets and to follow him to his house. I sat at his kitchen table and called all the drivers and he helped while his lovely wife, Peg, insisted on making me a sandwich to eat.

You bet he stayed involved.....

Another time on Thanksgiving day Paul Arpin had a driver call him at home because he was in R.I. at the truck stop and needed money. He looked up Paul's phone number in the phone book, had never met the man or talked to him but he did not know what else to do.
Paul left his house on Thanksgiving to meet him at the truck stop and he gave him $500.00.
(Years later recounting the story to Chip Martin from Daly Mover in CA he remembered it well because it was his wife's brother who was the driver).

Paul did not only preach it, he lived it.
