Interview With A Milkman -1996- -2021- File
Ah, it's a great story. I grew up in a family of small business owners, and I was looking for a job that would allow me to work independently and be outdoors. A friend of mine was working as a milkman at the time, and he recommended me for the job. I started as a delivery driver and learned the ropes quickly. I was hooked from the very first day.
(laughs) Oh, there have been many. One of my favorites was when I delivered milk to a newborn baby's family every morning for a year. The parents would always leave out a little note or a drawing for me, and it became a highlight of my day. Another memorable moment was during the 2008 financial crisis, when many of our customers were struggling to make ends meet. We worked with the community to offer discounts and special deals to those who needed it most. Interview With A Milkman -1996- -2021-
