Jim, despite being flooded with requests this morning, promptly addressed my need and I was able to access this technology - which many of our jobs rely heavily upon - within 5 minutes. Because he addressed this urgent problem immediately, I was able to quickly return to my job duties with minimal interruption.

MOUNT MARKHAM CENTRAL SCHOOL DISTRICT STAFF SHOUT-OUT MIKE GROSS MIKE'S NOMINATOR WROTE: "I just really wanted to say thank you again for solving so many problems yesterday. The fact that you were able to solve two problems that had been ongoing for 30+ days in less than 30 minutes just because l'd mentioned them while you were inquiring about a different problem is truly appreciated. You understand that nonfunctioning software has an educational impact on our students, and you went out of the way to ensure the problems were solved so that said impact was minimized. I know you've said in the past that you don't need the "thank you's." but you have no idea what a relief it is to finally have the software used for every single one of my classes back up and running the way it's supposed to - your work ethic doesn't go unnoticed." images: Mike Gross, Mount Markham Mustang
