Karin’s daughter Jennifer refers to her mom as the “mom of the mill.” “She’s feisty – she taught me how to do this job,” Jennifer tells me. Proudly she adds, “She knows which boards to move before they ever get to me.”
“Manual labor is all in your head…you have to have the right mindset to do this work.”
“The more you do something, the better you get.”
“I have gained a new respect for myself and others. I know more about myself – what I like, what I don’t like – my strengths and challenges.”
“It’s about how you treat others, reciprocity gains mutually exclusive benefits.”
“It’s not for everyone but it might be for you – and you won’t know unless you try.”
