SERVPRO of Sussex County…….Not just a Job – It’s an Adventure!

I have worked in the business arena for more than 35 years.  I have sold everything from poultry to legal services.  Although those endeavors were challenging and offered their own specific types of rewards; the work was not typically exciting and at times it was routine at best.  My time with SERVPRO has been exactly the opposite.

  Each day brings new challenges and most offer opportunities to make a real difference in people’s lives.  The critical nature of the events which truly require the SERVPRO expertise and service makes every job important.  When an individual or family is displaced due to a water or fire emergency; the work is inspired by a heightened sense of urgency and the vocation to help others takes over.  Getting that family back into their home becomes the goal and the team comes together to solve the problems. In a sense; it almost feels at times like we are “second” responders and although the situation may not be life or death; the rewards are genuinely fulfilling.

  The dramatic times may not be appealing in any job.  In most cases the everyday mundane theme of the workplace can be affected.  Real human drama is very different.  The images that we see on an ongoing basis inspire such compassion that the effort takes on a nature very different from the routine.  The scene at a burned out or flooded home and the sight of a pile of charred or saturated possessions can inspire not only emotion but intense energy as well.  This emotion and energy become the true vocation that is SERVPRO – problem solving in a crisis.  Another example would be when a natural disaster effects our area or another and we mobilize simply out of the desire to help!
