Though we may not know when this pandemic will slow and eventually come to an end, I can be confident that I have job security in a time when many others do not, and that my job is not only sustainable but emotionally fulfilling. Such a combination is rare nowadays, but many employees here at HomCo Lumber and Hardware feel similarly to me, and that is due to the work environment we all come together to create, administrator and floor associate alike.
