Museum and shop preserve Native American culture
For West Florida Electric Cooperative employees, building powerlines, trimming trees, maintaining Internet accounts, processing bill payments or dispatching crews are all in a day’s work. But recently, WFEC’s employees presented awards to co-workers they felt deserved special recognition for reaching above and beyond the call of duty.
For exemplary job performance and a positive attitude, Wayne Williams, Supervisor of Right of Way, was named Employee of the Year. | |
