Email from Mahesh during Employee
Appreciation Week - I usually ask Danita
to bake cookies to bring to work during
Employee Appreciation Week, but being
that we are mostly working from home I just
want to repeat how grateful and
appreciative I am for everything each of you
have done to enable OPS to continue
providing Outstanding Public Service this
past year. As we heard during our all-staff
meeting last month, our metrics across the
Division during the pandemic have been as
good if not better than the prior year. This
is a significant testament of your
accomplishments, especially when the
trend in many other programs during the
pandemic has been the opposite. This past
year at OPS has probably been my best,
and I think it's because the adversity we all
face has strengthened our sense of
belonging to the OPS family and working
together as a team. Thank you for your
Outstanding Public Service everyday.
To: Conveyance Team
From: David Hutchcraft
I would like to reiterate the kudos I
expressed at the team update meeting last
Thursday for all involved in the inspector,
contractor and mechanic licensing process.
By all accounts from those directly involved
the team completed the licensing "season"
as one lead put it "the smoothest the
process has run in 10 years". This is a
testament to the processes and attention to
detail the team put forth.
The high level of customer service and
communication across all interested
parties and team members is a testament
to the team's hard work and dedication to
make OPS's conveyance program the best
in the nation and a team I am honored to
be a part of. Thank you!
To: Amusements
From: Jamie Barrow
Thanks for the fast turnaround! I just
wanted to say thanks for the clear, easy,
and seamless transition with being down a
key member. I am impressed with how
smoothly this went!
Scott Narreau - comment This was a
great kudos from Vail Resorts. The credit
goes to Leslie for the amazing dedication
she provided through a tumultuous
database experience at the busiest time of
the season for the Amusement's program.
Leslie's hard work and persistence is
extraordinary. Public Safety and OPS are
incredibly fortunate to have her on the
team

We have been in the process of
implementing a new database and I have
been in charge of scheduling training for all
of the internal employees who use the
database. I reached out to these three to
the training and they stepped up and have
been incredible to work with. They got all
of the content together and the training
went very smoothly. Great work :)
