Take action now to get your summer approvals. The next non Blackout period will not begin until mid-December.

PTO requires your supervisor and HR’s Approval. Thank you!

Frank Wears the Crown – April Employee of the Month!

April 3, 2017 by Robert Moretti | Comments Off on Frank Wears the Crown – April Employee of the Month!

Frank joined Drape Kings almost 9 years ago to run our warehouse, and has been an integral part of our growth ever since. He weathered some of the awful cuts of 2008, but fortunately came back in 2009 wearing a different hat as Director of Sales. He is well respected by his team and all other members of our Drape Kings family.  His dedication and enthusiasm to motivate his staff results in a work environment that is productive, lively and fun!  We want to congratulate him on his nomination for “Employee of the Month” and we look forward to his continued success.

Teresa, I would like to start by saying thank you so much for a job well done!!!  The client was extremely happy with the way all of the drapes came together in the rooms.  This is not an easy client to please and many who walked through the venue were speechless by level of care and dedication to details.  Your help onsite was immeasurable and thism project could not have been completed without your assistance.  You are a valuable member on any team.”

Thank you again for everything!
