Progress not perfection

Some days it’s hard being positive. Especially in the world we are living in. Here are some simple tips to keep yourself on a positive path at work!

"All he ever wanted was a chance. And if he was given that chance, they’d never forget him. They said Jake Pratt of Vestavia Hills would never contribute. They ...said he’d never make his high school football team. They said he’d never graduate from high school. They said he’d never get his driver’s permit. They said he’d never graduate from college. Jake Pratt has proven them all wrong, and now I have the pleasure of announcing some big news! Jake has landed a job at UPS!!! He’s not driving a truck, but he is working up to 8 hours a day running packages to our doorsteps. He’s walking some 15,000 steps a day. He’s doing it with a smile. Yes, he's now 'Jake From UPS.' Oh, and that’s in addition to Jake working maintenance at a golf course from 6-10 a.m. seven days a week. That big backpack blower? Piece of cake. Yes, Jake Pratt is making his lunch the night before each workday. Placing his clothes out. Turning in early. Ready to remind us he will not be forgotten. All he ever wanted was a chance, and the UPS folks have given him a chance. Now, this 21-year-old with Down syndrome is showing the world what people with special needs can accomplish with hard work. This young man is helping to make our Christmas merrier. My heart is full as my pride in Jake runs deep. Please congratulate Jake, and if you see him on his route, give him a yell. All he ever wanted was a chance. And if he was given that chance, they’d never forget him. I have to admit, 'Jake From UPS' is going to be tough to forget." #LoveWhatMatters Credit: Rick Karle WVTM 13 (https://www.wvtm13.com/) Photo: Kathy and Jay Pratt
