The plan was when I was done with college I would take over for the accountant, who was going to retire. Well, I got in to banking and then taxes instead. I think being in the front line like that for so many years, you really appreciate the value of good customer service. It has stuck with me, now even as an adult, it is true I judge a company on how their employees treat people.
