This Could Be Goodbye
« on: June 02, 2016, 09:05:51 AM »
I apologize in advance for the self indulgence of this post regarding changes in my status, but I wanted to take this opportunity to notify my friends at The Shirt Board that my employment status with the Nazdar Company changed effective Tuesday May 31st, 2016. As a result of these changes I am beginning my search for new professional opportunities, that may or may not be related to the garment decorating industry. 

While these changes are all very recent and bring with them a degree of uncertainty, the one thing that I am 100% certain of is that I have highly valued my time as an active participant and representative of the Nazdar Company in the TSB Community.  My sincere thanks for your friendship and support, and I wish you all continued enjoyment and success in your personal and professional endeavors.

With regards to Nazdar SourceOne, this organization has been, and will continue to be a great company.  I step back from TSB with the knowledge that Rob Coleman continues to fly the SourceOne Flag on TSB, and I hope that he can convince some of his teammates to join this amazing community.

I gotta say that this news stunned me, and I hope that we still do have you in this industry. If not, you'll be missed.
And, we always considered ourselves lucky for your support and participation here.
That rug really tied the room together, did it not?

wow, Peter, I am speechless! 'anything, I can do, and I mean, anything, just let me know.

While you claim that Nazdar is a great company, your decision to leave or their decision not to keep you makes me question that (unless obviously there is some other circumstance). Needless to say, my loyalty goes with you wherever you go as I hold you in highest regard and can't think of many ppl I respect as much.

Thank you for all your help and support over the years. Hopefully the garment decorated industry does not lose you.

Good luck finding something else, and as mentioned, if I can help, please let me know.

Yes, we've won our share of awards, and yes, I've tested stuff and read the scientific papers, but ultimately take everything I say with more than just a grain of salt! So if you are looking for trouble, just do as I say or even better, do something I said years ago!

Peter -- I am speechless as well.  Whenever top level mgmt of a larger company goes through a shakeup, you have to wonder what's going on, and what their motives are.

I'll be watching Nazdar closely to see what may change without someone as active about the company as you were running the show.

I wish you success in your future endeavors and hope that you come out on top.

 :'( Man, I don't know what to say. Like Pierre said, I don't know of anyone I respect more in this industry. I surely hope you stay in it. I hope to see you here at Badger, or at a trade show or two. At least I can take comfort in the fact that I can still check in on you with Facebook. You'll be sorely missed, please keep in touch and take care.

no way! Big loss for Nazdar!  You will be back somewhere, this industry won't let go of any of us!  Good luck.
