00:03.140 --> 00:06.370
I came here as a contractor in 2011 and

00:06.370 --> 00:08.537
I came from a civilian hospital in the

00:08.537 --> 00:10.481
city and this was the first time I

00:10.481 --> 00:12.592
actually had the opportunity to serve

00:12.592 --> 00:16.400
the military community I get here . I

00:16.400 --> 00:18.660
usually drop off like some candies or

00:18.660 --> 00:20.990
snacks just for everybody because a lot

00:20.990 --> 00:23.450
of times it's just to power through

00:23.640 --> 00:26.050
Your 12 hour shift . So that's

00:26.050 --> 00:28.400
something that I just do to get us

00:28.400 --> 00:31.950
going from a housekeeping staff to the

00:31.950 --> 00:33.950
people who deliver , you know , our

00:33.950 --> 00:36.061
products I think is very important to

00:36.061 --> 00:38.500
always keep that line of communication

00:38.510 --> 00:40.690
open with everybody and people will

00:40.690 --> 00:42.857
come to you , you know , for different

00:42.857 --> 00:45.023
things that even outside of your scope

00:45.023 --> 00:47.134
of actual practice , but they look at

00:47.134 --> 00:49.060
you as family .

00:51.440 --> 00:55.120
The patients were very appreciative .

00:55.130 --> 00:57.463
I'm not saying that the patients in the ,

00:57.463 --> 00:59.463
in the civilian community are not .

00:59.463 --> 01:02.040
However here they never took the

01:02.040 --> 01:05.230
opportunity a way of not saying thank

01:05.230 --> 01:08.540
you people uh said I appreciate you for

01:08.540 --> 01:10.870
your service as you would say , you

01:10.870 --> 01:13.060
know , to one of the serving members

01:13.070 --> 01:16.670
and also the people from history ,

01:16.680 --> 01:19.670
like I've met people from World War Two

01:19.680 --> 01:23.380
which are now like 100 I've met

01:23.390 --> 01:25.850
senators , you know , people who were

01:25.850 --> 01:28.072
serving parts of the president's team .

01:28.072 --> 01:31.280
So it's just an awesome experience to

01:31.280 --> 01:33.740
be in such an environment with people

01:33.740 --> 01:35.850
who are serving the United States .

01:38.740 --> 01:39.920
Mhm , mm hmm
