What an awesome thing Fred from Bonifay, etc. did !!!
 
How awesome !!
I hope all of my Village's friends saw the 4 pages in the Daily Sun yesterday (Thanksgiving), that Fred Karimipour from Evans Prairie Country Club, Bonifay Country Club, Belle Glade Country Club, Orange Blossom Hills Country Club & Scooples Ice Cream Parlor and Restaurant took out & put pictures of his employees and publicly thanked all of them !!
That was really sweet ! He's a great guy that obviously cares about his businesses and his employees.

That's the kind of employee recognition that inspires loyalty - Fred sounds like a great guy.

Yes, he does, and my granddaughter is one of them. Unfortunately her photo wasn't in the paper. She told me that the photographer took 3 pictures of her. I was so disappointed! Hopefully, the error will be rectified and she will get her well-deserved credit, too.

My favorite bartender, Tony, didn't make it either. However, I'm sure those who are missing are not intentional. What a wonderful way to celebrate those who make your business successful

Tony was in there. Second page, 3rd row next to Jack. Tony's name is Anthony.

He's definitely a very nice man. I see him going around and talking to guests and I really like that.

I am always impressed when an employer respects and appreciates their staff and publicly shows it. I am equally impressed when an owner will forgo opening on a Holiday so their employees can enjoy the holiday with their families.

Yea for Fred.
