Here are some of the comments we received on him from his fellow Team Members for G.E.M. Going the Extra Mile:
Jesse Aramburo

Jesse was a temp before he started full time at Peabody Engineering. You could tell right from the start that he was a good fit with the Team. He just has the best attitude and loves to work here at Peabody.
When Jesse would see new temps here he would tell them, “show up on time, do a good job, this is a great place to work”. He always encourages everyone. Such a positive attitude.
One day Jesse told me that Peabody had done more for him in 2 months than previous employers had done for him in 30 years. WHAT a compliment.
Jesse is true to his word. If asked he will tell you the truth and wants to help Peabody be the best it can be every day. He also likes to mentor and train new employees. This is why I wanted to nominate a man that invests into other Team members.
What a blessing he is to have at Peabody Engineering.

Wednesday, July 4th, 2018. The Day that The United States of America Celebrates her Independence. This is the 242nd anniversary of our Independence and sadly, these days, much of our population have no understanding at all what we are celebrating. If you really want to know what it means, it seems you must ask either someone over 50 years of age or a naturalized citizen, both of whom were taught the truth of this historical event in the classroom. Unfortunately, in many classrooms today, the significance and impact of America’s independence is minimized in the interest of what people call “moral relativism”. Essentially, that supposedly means that right and wrong, good and bad, is all relative, based upon your culture or perspective, so what may be “good” or “honorable” to one may be “evil” or “dishonorable” to someone else from a different background.
The early settlers did not come to America as racists or conquerors and had nothing but noble intent. They came to the new world with faith and a desire to honor God and live a better life. During the war for Independence from England, the young society’s leaders, men like George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, Samuel Adams, James Madison and others risked everything for that dream. Many lost their homes, their possessions, even their lives. But they prevailed and won!
