The Best Sales Person @ HHGregg Clearwater FL.

I would like to say thank you to Bob Ervin. This past weekend, Bob went above and beyond his sales duties to help this veteran.  I had bought a dishwasher from HHgregg, when I got home. After opening the box, the dishwasher was damaged. I was on fire, because I have been waiting for a dishwasher for about a month. I then went  back to HHgregg to  speaking with the manager. The manager told me there was no more in stock and I had to wait another week.

Bob was standing close and herd the conversation. He also saw my USMC tattoo and asked if I was a US Marine. I said, "Yes sir, Ooh- Rah." Bob then stepped in to help.  He told the manager that there was a way to solve my problem. Bob went in the back to look for another model dishwasher that was color black. He found a couple  came back out on the floor and explained and showed me the different models.  We chose a black Whirlpool that was really nice.  Bob went to the store manager and explained the situation. Shortly after, we walked out vary happy with a better dishwasher.  I never had a sales person go out of there way to help a veteran. Bob Ervin is an out standing sales rep.
So if your are a veteran, and shopping at HHGregg in Clearwater FL. Make sure that you ask for Bob Ervin, Appliance Specialist.
Thank you.

Jesse Steed, A Father, A Hero, A US Marine...RIP. Devil Dog


One of ours. A US marine, Jesse was in Bravo 1/4 1st Plt. Jesse served between 1996 and 2000, Steed served in the United State Marine Corps 
Jesse Steed, 36, was one of the oldest and most experienced members of the crew and because of that, he has served as captain of the Granite Mountain Hotshots for the last two years. He started working as a Hotshot in 2002 and moved to the Granite Mountain Hotshots around that same time. Jesse Steed's former colleagues remember him as a joker. "He was a character. If you look at all the old photos of him, he was doing things to make people laugh," said Cooper Carr, who worked with Steed in the Hotshots from 2001 to 2003. "He was good at impressions, and he sang songs; he was just great for morale. He'd just talk in a funny voice and have us all in stiches," Carr said. "And he was strong as an ox." Carr remembers that Steed once spent the better part of an hour positioning a water bottle just right for a photo so that it would look like Yosemite falls was cascading into it. Steed was also remembered for his dedication to fighting wildfires. "He did it for a long, long time. I think he started in 2001, when he got out of the Marines. A job like the Hotshots is hard, hard work, and you don't stay in it if you don't love it," Carr said. Steed was no stranger to bravery, or danger. Between 1996 and 2000, Steed served in the United State Marine Corps before returning home and becoming a firefighter.. Renton, Wash., police officer Cassidy Steed said his brother "always put his life on the line for people who he knew he would never meet." Steed leaves behind a wife, Desiree, and two children. His two kids are Caden, 4 and Cambria, 3.
