4.04.07 OSS The Customer Graduation

Graduation day arrived and all were in great spirits. The room was decorated and ready to go. The walls we were anxious to hear what everyone had to say about The Customer. The walls thought the discussions in each of the 4 weekly sessions they heard some really active discussions. Now they were waiting to hear how people had put their experiences in class to work.


Stories were told about how The Customer was helping communications in VIC and coaching in QA. Both teams say they can hear the difference in the calls they receive. Others found that the behavior styles inventories help them understand and work with others better. If you want more, talk everyone on the team to learn more about their experience with the program and the materials.

CSC OSS Team
( Back row (l-r): John Deree, Jen Ashcraft, Jenn Shockey, Mirielle Bock, Rose Mintle, Chris Bohnenkamp.

However, we do have one team (The Willing-Hams) that wanted to share their experience via rap. We invite you to hear their story and watch their video. They are such strong believers in team play that they had all of us participate in the chorus. They are Tracy Helsing, Mary Weaver, Susan Vecellio, Jenn Shockey, & Jen Ashcraft!!! (The video is too large to load to this blog so now you get to go on a trek--Go to the EDS Server/Select file named--4.4.07 Video The Willing-Hams /Put your head sets on before you start the video so you can hear them and the great chorus. )

Willing-Ham script
Chorus:
We are Willing Hams and we’re here to say,
We all behave in a different way.
Some of us bossy and some of us meek
But together, we’ll make it to the end of the week.

My name is Mar and I like to chat.
About this thang and about that.
Energetic and fun
And that ain’t no pun.
It’s all about work, I like to joke.
Nah, it’s all about da peeps.
And I ain’t blowin no smoke! (Repeat Chorus)

I’m Jen A from QA.
I’m a supporter.
I like routine.
I have an even temperament,
I won’t cause a scene.
I make decisions slowly,
I’m not hurried for time.
I hang onto old friends
Because they are mine! (Repeat Chorus)

We be Susan and Tracy,
The movas and the shakas.
The Doers,
The Takers,
Not the Procrastinators.
We’re Learnin
Performin
Listen and Informanin.
We may eve remind you
Of Stormin…Norman. (Repeat Chorus)

I’m a controller, I’m 2-n-Jenn.
I’m ruled by logic,
Not emotion.
Right to the point,
Let’s get this done.
Everything in order,
Not time for fun. (Repeat Chorus)

Celebrate their creativity by entering your comments on this blog. Marla
