For June's Employee Spotlight, meet one of our long-time employees, (former) installer extraordinaire, a legacy here at the store and one of our trainers for new hires, Bob Wescott. With a full 26 years of experience, we're lucky to have Bob. He's a bit of a legend when it comes to installation... Bob began his career here as an Installer at our previous location in Morton Grove. In this position, our trucks bring large appliances like refrigerators and kitchen ranges to homes. For a full 18 years, Bob Wescott went from home to home, helping people complete their dream kitchens and replacing appliances. Fast. He's been referred to as "The Poster Child" by Randy Goldfein, who managed Bob at the time. "He was so organized and knew how to prep his truck well." Not only that, he knew how to fix things. That's one of the reasons why Bob Wescott was given his own one-man installer run. As a one-man team, Bob's position involved installing smaller appliances like cooktops and garbage disposals. Even when he took on an extra stop or two, Bob would always be the first guy back. He was also able to take care of any issues that arose during the day. He could break from his route and head over to a customer's house fast to come up with a solution to nearly any issue. It's just one of the reasons why he has the position he has today: as an Abt trainer. "After coming inside to be a trainer about four years ago, I was given the opportunity to help start the Abt garage door department." Here, Bob shows employees everything they need to know about installing and fixing our garage doors for customers. We even have one installed in the training area to ensure that installers are comfortable and know their way around the equipment. "What I love about my job is helping the fleet grow, learning new aspects of the business and giving back when I can." Besides being a great trainer and installer. He's a dad to three children. "Being a dad to a 20-year-old, 17-year-old and a 9-year-old keeps us busy. He loves spending time on the rink with his boys who play hockey, or in a dance studio with his daughter. "If there's any time left, we love to get out on our boat as much as we can during the summer. We're grateful to him and to all of the dads who work here at Abt in the spirit of Father's Day!
