After business relationship manager and AVP Jeremy Schmidt injured his eye recently, he had to keep it covered for 48 hours — “which meant he also had to endure a pirate’s bounty of heckling from his beloved co-workers,” said lending sales specialist Jody Moore. Commercial banking manager and VP Margaret Capper and business relationship manager Cheri Cicona-Trudell came up with the idea for Jeremy’s colleagues to wear their own eye patches and decorate his cubicle with a pirate them.
“It was funny and completely in line with who we all are,” Jeremy said. “We care about one another and have a blast working together — no one takes themselves too seriously.” Saying “Arrr!” above are product and implementation manager Jeff Luczak, treasury solutions specialist Angela San Felipo-Gellendin, VP and commercial loan officer Jim Goetz, Jody, Jeremy, VP and commercial loan officer Phil Ostroski, and Cheri.
