“On Saturday July 23 about noon my wife and I made a quick stop at the BP in Standish where we often stop. We like the store very much and often see other people from Oscoda making stops. On this particular visit I was surprised no one else was in the store and I noticed the attendant, Taylor, moving quickly through the store cleaning everything in sight. I was amazed that in a moment when she could have taken a break with no customers she was devoting her time to cleaning. I complimented her on her diligence and wanted you to know that she is one excellent employee!”
