It can even hurt your home life and make you feel like you've picked the wrong career path... even if you LOVE CARPENTRY and you are really good at it. Guess what? It doesn't have to be that way. At our company, we are DIFFERENT. We VALUE our carpenters and we let them KNOW IT. We recognize achievement in our weekly meetings, highlight our carpenters in our monthly newsletters, and brag on them in social media.
