Jane Anne Carelli Business Development and Sales Representative, Westchester and above How long have you been with YES: Over 5 years What do you enjoy about your job?: The relationships that are made both within the company, and as part of each day. I love that each day is different and when faced with an obstacle, our team has an all hands on deck kind of support to work together and reach a solution. We are passionate about what we do and our company and it shows. Memorable experience while at YES: I have a lot of great stories that are memorable. The company bbq where Jamie and I catered was a classic! The people I've met through work that I have come to treasure as friends. Most recently we were given a cafeteria and under 6 weeks to renovate seating for 400 including booths and built ins. There was no time to have manufacturer's design it, so we did it ourselves in an afternoon! The colors and textures were so beautiful, the manufacturer called to say they would start putting the colors together in their designs! End result: The district and the kids just love their new cafeteria. Another job well done for YES |

Colleen Mannix Assistant to the Director of Service & Repairs Colleen has been with YES since January of 2011, and serves as the Assistant to the Director of Service & Repairs. Colleen takes pride in being able to identify and create solutions for the problems that come her way. "I get a real sense of accomplishment when someone needs my help, and I'm able to get them through whatever it is they're working on. And I absolutely love the relationships I've built with my co-workers. We work and play - we laugh more than argue." Colleen's biggest hurdle at her job is explaining the repair process to her clients. What people may not realize within the Service & Repairs Division it really is the manufacturers of the product you are ordering that is holding up the completion of a job, not us. We would love to help you within a reasonable amount of time but sometimes that is out of our control. |

One of Jill's favorite parts about being a member of the YES family is how interconnected she is with her co-workers both in, and out of work. "When I needed to move out of my apartment, everyone rallied around me and helped, like a family would." |

Since his initial interview, Steve says working with the people at YES has made him feel wanted, and like a valued member of the team, and he looks forward to offering locker solutions to new customers.

Harriet Wilson Director of School Furnishings Harriet has been with YES for 13 years, serving as the Director of Educational Services, and she absolutely loves what she does. Making customers happy and finding solutions for their needs keeps her going day after day. "I love getting calls of delight from my customers," says Harriet. "Sometimes I'll suggest that they try a different manufacturer, and they'll be hesitant, but in the end, they trust my judgement. Once the product is delivered and everyone loves it, I always hear back about how happy they are with the new items and how my products are superior to what they'd been using in the past." |

Dennis Schwandtner Director of Service and Repairs Dennis has been with yes for 11 years, as the Director of Service and Repairs. The ability to be an entrepreneur, and the creative challenges he faces daily are Dennis' favorite parts about the job. Dennis cites honesty and integrity as two of the most important traits YES has instilled in him as a worker. "Many years ago, a customer called for a quote asking us to move 88 lockers, but after looking at them, I saw that there were really only 44 frames involved. When I showed Rich the quote, he explained that the best solution was to revise the quote, and give the client the best price possible. The people at YES are always putting people before profits and I really like that about this company. We even do some work for that school district at no charge, YES is just that kind of place." |
