I need to say something to everyone on SD about Al. The other month things were going great and then I got called into the human resources office at work. After 15.5 years I was unemployed. Some of it was my big mouth and some of it was a boss that was tired of me being right. Anyway I had made an order for some of Al's delicious dried worms (that's what my fish call them) and had to get ahold of him and let him know that I had to cancel my order. He wrote back saying that he was sorry about the bad luck and hoped everything would be alright. Later in the week I went to the post office and had a package note in the box. I went up to the window and as she handed me my package I instantly recognized where it was from, Al had sent a care package of worms free of charge. Only fish people would know how much that means to someone, and it meant a lot to me. Al thanks again and things are getting better. I found out Friday that I was hired for a full time job at another ambulance service. Al thanks again. Jeff Z.

Sounds like a normal thing for Al, as part of the team here I can say Al is one best people I have ever had the pleasure to know. FDBW's is just a small business that he runs out of his house, but he will always go above and beyond to help someone out this is just more proof of it!!! Good to hear you have new job Jeff!!!
