Most Memorable Work Moment: At Palmer Gas & Oil’s 50th Anniversary we had a big celebration at the Granite Rose. We invited all of our employees and 50 of our customers and their guests. It was a great time! The employees presented Lorraine and I an engraved bench that still sits outside of our office building to this day.

Most Memorable Work Moment:From time to time, some of our customers experience hardships in their life and ask if we can provide them financial relief. One of customers reached out to me during the summer and inquired if I could work with her on price as she was going through a tough time. I was able to work with our customer and she was overcome with joy and couldn’t thank me enough. She even went out of her way shortly thereafter and baked us homemade cookies. It’s days like these that make it worth coming to work and helping customers when they need it the most.

Most Memorable Work Moment: My doctor called me on a Wednesday and told me that I had to go to the hospital to have a C-Section that Friday. I told him that I had too much work to do and wanted to schedule it for the following week. He thought that was pretty funny, but I was totally serious.

Most Memorable Work Moment: After only being employed at Palmer for a short time, I had announced that my wife and I were expecting our first child. As our baby’s due date grew closer, I was so surprised and touched when my co-worker’s threw a surprise baby shower for me. For me, it spoke to our culture and the family environment at Palmer.
