Last month Chief Operating Officer Denis Kelly had a nostalgic trip while visiting a new client site in Fishkill, NY. When meeting the new Site Supervisor, Helen Veach, he made an amazing discovery. The site is located at the same campus where Denis started as a security officer many years ago. Upon meeting Helen, they discussed how long she had been there. When Denis stated he began as a security officer at that site in January 1992 for a different company, Helen acknowledged, “I worked for that company too and started in February 1992!“ Meaning they both worked there for a short time together over 30 years ago. Shortly after, Denis moved with the company to an account manager position at a different site. Pictured is Helen Veach and Denis and Denis at the main guard booth that was one of the posts that he worked back in 1992, which is no longer utilized. What a fantastic trip down memory lane! #SecurityCompany #SecurityPersonnel #Team #SecurityServices #CorporateSecurity #SunstatesSecurity #Security #Leadership #Growth #NYBusiness #NewYork #SecurityOfficer
We received a fantastic email from our client’s Director of Security. He wanted to recognize a Sunstates employee, Jason Fitts, for his hard work and always going above and beyond at their Nevada site. We appreciate it when our clients take the time to reach out to notify us of the incredible things our team does. “I wanted to take a moment to commend Jason Fitts and thank you for employing him to support our relationship. Jason, time and again, is a solid performer for us. Not only does Jason do an outstanding job in his daily duties, but he goes beyond that, mentoring new guards and handling special requests (which happen more than I’d like) out at our site. When my team knows Jason is on post, we know that he will follow my philosophy of the 3 E’s (Engage, Engage, Engage) and we know that any situation is well in hand. Of specific note, Jason has engaged during several fires recently, that without his calm, cool, professionalism, have saved us on many occasions. A sincere thank you for his hard work and exceptional work ethic.
