He's dependable, trustworthy, and loyal which are excellent qualities in a friend. They also happen to be great qualities in an employee. We worked together as ski instructors years ago, and he is always patient with clients and meets them where they are. I've rarely seen him get frustrated in life, and never with the public when he is working in a service capacity.

Is there anything else you feel would be important for us to know, and if so, please describe?

The man is solid, and he's taught skiing before. We've taught lessons together to large groups and even helped run new employee training. He is calm and patient and will be a great employee, always putting the needs of the public first.
