Glenn Ashley 25 years!

GLENN ASHLEY


Celebrating 25 years 
at Jeff Lynch!

Can-Do attitude.
Perpetually smiling.
Always ready to help.
Super guy.

These are regular comments we hear about Glenn Ashley.

Mark Lynch met Glenn in a church back in the early nineties.  Glenn was new to the area and Mark would see him when Glenn was a ranger at Carolina Springs Golf Club.  Mark quickly saw Glenn's positive attitude.  It wasn't long before Mark learned that Glenn was looking for a job.  Mark already knew Glenn was a super guy so he offered him an entry level position at Jeff Lynch back when the store was located at Lake Forest Shopping Center.  According to Mark Glenn "smiled ear-to-ear and said that eating is good!" Glenn was thrilled and grateful and he quickly became a part of the Jeff Lynch family.  

Mark remembers that Glenn did anything he was asked to do and never said anything like "this is not my job".  Instead he replied with "Let's Do It!" 

When the Jeff Lynch team was preparing the new North Pleasantburg Drive building, just up the street from Lake Forest, Glenn helped with the renovations and in any way he could.  Glenn hammered and painted while keeping his grateful attitude.

Soon after that Mark asked Glenn if he thought he could sell appliances at the store.  Glenn's response was "Give Me A Shot!"  Going from an hourly wage to straight commission would be intimidating for most but Glenn jumped right in.  Within the first full month he was our #1 sales person, exceeding sales volumes of 15 year veteran team mates.  

Glenn is the first employee
 (other than Jeff Lynch family members)
 to reach his 25th anniversary!!

All of his hard work, dedication and integrity was rewarded by a promotion to Sales Manager.  Once an hourly employee now holds the keys to the store.   Meanwhile he also still sells.  

His product knowledge is second to none.  He knows what the sales people deal with so he is very willing to help solve problems and train new staff members.  He genuinely turns a negative situation in to a positive one.

ongoing banter, sarcasm and laughs.

Glenn is devoted to his family, the recovery ministry and particularly enjoys a good round of golf.

Glenn was a scratch golfer and still is a great golfer to this day.  He is always an A player at the Jeff Lynch captain's choice tournaments. 

 Glenn had 2 hole-in-ones within a few months!!

    Glenn is one of the most kind and wonderful guys I have EVER known. He's in my new HUDDLE ministry and always has kind words to say to me about my talks and help I've been to him.

4 tips to keep your dishwasher in good working order

Image
2/3/18 There is so much information out there about how to take care of and clean our dishwashers that it can be overwhelming.  If you keep up with the cleaning and maintenance you can extend the life of your dishwasher.  We studied the owner’s manuals for Kitchen Aid, GE and Bosch dishwashers and came up with the 4 most helpful cleaning tips.   Check your owner’s manual for specific instructions and frequency. Clean the filters Inside your dishwasher there is at least one filter that collects solid particles that may have been on your dishes.  If you don’t clean it regularly then your dishes may show visible signs of dirt and the dishes can feel gritty to the touch.  It is easy to remove and clean them.   You can just do a quick look at the filter about once a month if you tend to put dirty dishes in the dishwasher.  If you are in the habit of clearing the dishes of food before putting them in the dishwasher you may only need to ch...
