Ron has worked for the City since 2004.
What are three words to describe the City of
Springfield?
Opportunity, friendly and family.
What's something you've learned since working
for the City?
The vast size of a city’s sanitary
collection system, and all the aspects involved
to maintain it and keep our customers' sewers
working properly.
Why do you do what you do?
I feel our
department is out to strive for making our
environment better for all, and I want to be
a part of it.
What’s the hardest part of your job?
Dealing
with homeowners can sometimes be challenging.
But, for the most part, citizens come around when
the details are fully explained.
What’s the best part of your job?
Seeing co-workers go home at the end of the day knowing
we have done our job safely. We work in some
dangerous conditions.
What do you admire about this
organization?
That the possibilities for
employees are always there.
If you could switch your job with anyone else
within the City, whose job would you want?
I really don’t want to switch with anyone.
I enjoy my job.
