Re: Geoffrey Fox

To whom it may concern:

I am sure you can see from Geoff’s resume that he was employed by Lakeland Sleep Center, Inc., dba America’s Mattress for 14 years. You can also see on his resume the multitude of responsibilities that he was given.

What his resume doesn’t tell you and what I am struggling to find the words to convey is how blessed our company was that he chose to spend those 14 years with us! During his tenure he worked tirelessly, with little (if any) supervision. He was the first person to arrive each morning and even on his days off he kept his phone by his side in case he was needed. I never once heard him complain if he had to come in on his day off to cover for another employee. In fact, he seldom even spoke of it. Usually it was a coworker that brought it to my attention!

When Geoff was promoted to Operations & Warehouse Mgr. he was supposed to receive tutelage from the founder of our company. Unfortunately, Mr. Cassel passed away within days of Geoff moving into that position and there was no one else to guide him. Working with a computer system which was virtually useless due to improper installation, Geoffrey stepped up and took control of the situation. Not only did we barely miss a beat he was able to get our computer system to do the job it should have been doing from the beginning. In fact, anytime there was a task that no one else in the company could do, Geoff would find a way to get it done!

When Geoff was promoted to General Manger it was a perfect fit! He had the sales and sales management experience, he was an expert at customer relations,

he knew our products better than anyone in the company, and most importantly he had long since earned the respect of his coworkers and our vendors.

Geoff is the type of person that you can count come what may! He will act as a peace keeper, raise employee morale, and keep a calm head during any storms. He is incredibly smart, honest, dependable, and loyal.

In closing, if you are fortunate enough to have the opportunity hire him, I would strongly suggest you do so immediately. It will be one of the best decisions you will ever make!
