Business Scene for the week of 2/20/18
FAREWELL FROM JILL
After almost 30 years in the community and working for the Lassen County Times, I am hanging up my hat so-to-speak. It’s a bit surreal to say my last day here is this Thursday, Feb. 22. I have truly enjoyed my job all these years, and the people I’ve met, many becoming friends. I appreciate the many opportunities and trust placed in me with owners Mike and Keri Taborski. They are the reason many of us stay with the company as long as we do. A special thank you to both of them.
I will most certainly miss my co-workers and friends here in our Susanville office as well as those in our other offices within Feather Publishing. Many of them I have had the honor of working alongside for many years, especially those in the advertising department.
Joining experienced advertising consultants, Laura Tew and Erika Giusti, is Teresa Stalteri. With many years of experience, these talented ladies will continue to do an amazing job in the advertising department.
My husband Jeff and I look forward to this new chapter in our lives. I am forever grateful for his, and our boys, Jacob and Jordan’s support all these crazy years of deadlines … I’m certainly not going to miss that word.
Thank you Lassen County for all the memories! Peace out!
