The MyDavey Bulletin is for employees like...
Collin Hartman
certified arborist, Lower Mainland
Utility account
Hartman, who has seven years of experience
with Davey, looks forward to going to work
every day because he loves the work he
does, the outdoors and climbing high up in
the trees; it gives him a sense of freedom.
Employee ownership brings
a sense of community; it makes
you feel a part of Davey. It
makes me realize working for
Davey is not just a job but a
career. I love the people I work
with every day, which is the
reason I'm eager to get up each
morning to go to work. We are
all likeminded individuals
that share the same passion
for arboriculture.

Attitude of Gratitude
T
is the season of giving.
While you may be thinking about
the list of gifts you have yet to purchase for
close family members, friends and neighbors,
it's important to remember ways to show
gratitude and appreciation for others that
don't require long lines of impatient customers
and high credit card balances.
