This week we are giving “high-fives” to the Continuum Café team of Tammie Hill (manager), Rebecca Watkins and Purdue student worker Marin Manoj, who served our PVM community with such warmth, professionalism, and excellence this past semester!  Though at times other servers also helped out, Tammie, Rebecca and Marin were the ones consistently present to greet and serve customers with good food accompanied by smiles and positivity.  Whether PVM faculty, staff or students were coming by for coffee, snacks, treats or a breakfast or lunch sandwich or wrap, they could count on friendly interactions and a positive experience.  And thanks to the excellent work of the Café Team, the level of business that our Continuum Café experienced was sufficient for it to remain open even when other food services across campus were closed, such as during Spring Break week.  The café is part of the Purdue Food Company, which is the Aramark-run food service enterprise that operates some 30 Purdue eateries on campus, and it’s the personalized service of our Café Team that makes it special to the PVM Community.  Thank you Tammie, Rebecca, and Marin!

Fostering a healthy work environment involves expressing appreciation and gratitude. Is there someone at PVM you would like to acknowledge today? It’s easy to make a Paws Up submission – just follow this link. Submissions are published anonymously and may be edited for length. Any PVM staff, faculty, student, or team may be nominated by anyone in our college. For more information, visit the PVM Wellness Committee website.
