If you've been reading our other posts, you know by now that Cherry Optical, Inc is family owned. However, I want to re-emphasize how this relates to the caring the atmosphere in our workplace is; it's my favorite part of our small business. Everyone is family - loving, ridiculing, supportive family. They thought they were pretty clever when they made my “new desk” when we

were under construction (see “photographic evidence”). Honestly, though, no matter what is happening in my personal life, I can count on coming to work and knowing that I’ll always have a group of people who support me. Our workplace offers great people, free soda (for my caffeine needs), there's always food and of course, Adam’s dog, Pause.

It’s also especially nice to have Sirius XM radio streaming throughout the day because they offer such variety of music to satisfy everyone's taste. Cherry Optical, Inc knows how to make their employees feel at home... Except for the no sweatpants rule. Ha! I can't complain, since we're not open to the public, we have the privilege to wear our street clothes.

Over the last four years, I can’t believe of all the progress this company has made. First, the anti-reflective coating center and adding a night shift for faster turn time for our customers, then an expansion and new machinery, the list goes on. I’m grateful to work for a company that strives for growth. I feel comfortable sharing my opinions, asking questions and suggesting improvements. I feel honored to be a part of this family owned business which has come so far in the last few years, only to keep finding ways to fulfill our customers’ needs and expectations of an optical laboratory. In my opinion, Adam has succeeded in creating a work environment that welcomes ideas and fun while operating an efficient production line.
