Warehouseman
After 21 years with Origlio, warehouseman Stephen Loughead is retiring this month. Since he’s been with the company for so long, he knows a thing or two about what it takes to be a great warehouseman. He says patience is crucial when dealing with a warehouse full of different personalities, which can be challenging. That said, his fellow employees are what Loughead appreciates most about his position, and he acknowledges that by “bringing in soft pretzels & crockpots full of hot dogs for the team.” But don’t forget to say thank you, that’s his biggest pet peeve! The advice Loughead would give to a new warehouseman… “Show up every day, follow directions, and take pointers from senior employees.”
What are you looking forward to most about retirement? It’s going to be great to not have a schedule. I’ll be able to go out to lunch with my lovely bride, Linda, whenever I want.
What is your favorite fall activity? Watching Sunday football with my family.
The last TV show you binged was… General Hospital. My sisters are big fans of the show, and I was able to catch up recently!
Your favorite movie of all time is… The Dirty Dozen.
If you had your own talk show, who would your first guests be? Jason Kelce, Joe Santucci (owner of Santucci’s Pizza), and Origlio warehouseman Jay Frank Jr.
What are three things on your bucket list? Travel to the West Coast, sell my home, and win the lottery.
The best advice you have ever received is… Don’t cut corners. If you’re going to do something, do it right!
If you could be anywhere, drinking any alcoholic beverage… I’d be on the beach in North Wildwood, drinking a Red Bull & vodka.
