Norm turned 42 today.
Today was one of our biggest celebrations of the year. No one loves birthdays more than Norman, our longest employed person here at Bloomin’. He has been working here for 11 or 12 years. He has always been instrumental in getting our daily tasks finished on time.
For years he has shagged paper, (part of our paper making process). Now he preps paper for our 20 inkjet printers. FYI – we use inkjet printers for full color printing because they don’t damage any seeds, anyway, Norman rarely complains about anything, except maybe when his shift is finished. You should see him on payday. Can you say BEAR HUG!!! Oh, and his moon walk… you would almost think it’s Michael Jackson himself.
This place wouldn’t be the same without Norm, I really love him, we make each other happy. I think everyone loves him. We even had three former employees show up for Norm’s party. One hasn’t been working here for over 5 years. Norm’s place is most certainly here with us.
