For February of 2017, it seems that we have a pattern going on of two employees being voted Employee of the Month! This months employees are Scott Powada (aka Scotty P.) and Leroy Anderson!
Scott, or as he’s known at Phoenix, Scotty P, has been with the Phoenix team since April 2015. He has been in the Fire Sprinkler industry for almost 5 years. Scotty P. started the Apprentice Program in February in 2016. He is another promising future fitter here at Phoenix by showing he can run his own jobs as well as teaching new employees and other apprentices. Scotty P. was voted Employee of the Month for his great work ethic and hard work. He’s always wanting to teach others and always leading by example. He also has a great attitude and keeps everyone’s spirits high even when under stress. When he’s not on the job, he is usually writing songs and preforming in his band, The Alleged.
Leroy has been our Field Superintendent since December 2014 but has been in the Fire Sprinkler industry for almost 35 years! He started as a ground guy in 1986 after being Honorably Discharged from the Army. Leroy received his Idaho Fitters License in 1990 and also received his NICET III in 2010. While Leroy might seem a little rough around the edges, but he has one of the biggest hearts at Phoenix! Leroy was voted Employee of the Month because of his willingness to do what it takes to get the job done. He is also very helpful and takes apprentices under his wing to show them the tricks of the trade. He has a great attitude and an even better sense of humor! When Leroy isn’t busy being the boss in the field, he’s most likely out on the lake fishing with our other Foremen.
Congratulations guys! Keep up the great work and continuing to make Phoenix Fire Protection the best!
