On the Human Side of Work

We Will Miss You Joe

By Trina Fleming|2021-03-23T18:37:51-07:00March 23, 2021|Categories: Job Seeker News|

There are times when people enter your life for what may seem like a relatively short time, but the impact they made will be long remembered. WHW Board Member, Joseph Formichelli, was such a person, and it is with great sadness that we announce his passing on Sunday, March 14th, 2021. We will miss Joe, but we will not forget the lessons he taught. Show up early, work hard, have a plan, think big and go the extra mile when you can. I think if he were here now, he would say, “It’s time to end this and get back to work.” Thanks Joe…we’re on it!

Since we were little, we’ve been taught to think about our future, to think about what we want to be when we grow up. As adults, the questions continue to be asked by family, friends, teachers and employers. These questions about the future are one of the reasons we spend time planning our lives and careers. However, no matter how much we plan or how well we plan, there are always unexpected curveballs thrown our way. While a curveball is one of the most commonly used pitches in baseball, it is one of the most difficult to hit because right when you are about to swing, the ball changes direction.
