They really do start young in this industry! 🤣 But there's another reason I'm sharing this clip today. Food has this magical ability to bring us together, bridging gaps and creating lasting memories. You can see the grandfather's gentle guidance, passing down the traditions and skills to the next generation. Meanwhile, the youngster, filled with enthusiasm, attempts to replicate what he's no doubt seen many times before. Moments like these remind us of the joy and connection food brings into our lives. If you're looking to capture these same magical food moments, follow the link to our website and see how Welbilt can help. https://lnkd.in/gr_TrxHv

This is the video of experiments at our head office. For both briquetting and agglomeration, you can see the whole procedure from raw material mixing to strength testing and anti-fall testing. #pelletizing #agglomeration #briquetting #binder #organicbinder

This post will not make me popular. I know this, but I’m going to post it anyway. At 22 years old, the young man in the shared post has the road freight industry at his feet. He’s excited about his job, and his boss has put a lot of faith in him, which is awesome. He’s clearly worthy of such confidence and faith, which is rare in our industry. In short - he’s a diamond. However, if he doesn’t change his lifestyle, he’s not going to be around to fulfil his ambitions 😢 This is NOT a body shaming post. I’m very concerned for his future but I admit I don’t know what he’s eating; or drinking; or whether he’s exercising or not; or whether he has health conditions that cause him to appear, in the only photo I’ve seen of him, to be very overweight. My only concern is that he appears to be not of great health for a 22 year old. This is an amazing young person who has a wonderful future; the opportunity to have a family and maybe his own transport company. But if he doesn’t look after his health, it will be just a dream. A beautiful, tragic dream that isn’t realised. If we don’t start acting and doing something about the health of drivers in our industry, there won’t be an industry to worry about. I know that Healthy Heads in Trucks & Sheds has done amazing work with bp to offer wonderfully healthy options for drivers; but what happens when they’re not at a bp ? We need to do more. We need to encourage drivers to visit their Doctor every year as an absolute minimum to cover off all the items they should be for a health check. We need drivers to demand healthy options at truck stops, not fried food, regardless of whether it’s a bp or not. We need to promote healthy eating in the same manner as we promote mental health and road safety. Otherwise, people like Nick will become just another statistic of our industry. We need to do better for legends like him 💖

It sounds like you're talking about letting go of inhibitions and embracing your true self to find fulfillment. Breaking free from the armor we've built around ourselves can be challenging but ultimately rewarding. What steps are you considering to start this process?

It's Monday. It's launch day for Shadow Peak, the next book in my national park crime thriller series. And I walk out to the garage to find my jeep with one totally flat tire. Day is ruined, right? But wait...how lucky am I to have this happen under these particular circumstances? 1) I was restless this morning, so I decided to head to work a solid hour earlier than normal. 2) My spare donut tire (sigh, I miss full size spares on jeeps) is not only pristine, its fully inflated. 3) My full tool box in the garage has a lug nut breaker (lol, whatever you actually call that tool). 4) My amazing neighbor was home and came over to help me beat the crap out of the tire until we finally got it off. (Me and YouTube would have figured that out eventually, but Tim sure sped up the process) 5) I had an unusually light calendar today and the weather is picture perfect. Okay, what's the point here, Professor Hansen? The point is, it would have been really easy for that flat tire to ruin my whole damn day. But instead, I focused on all the ways I felt lucky about these circumstances. I often see others (faculty, students, etc) focus on the negatives, when looking for the silver lining can make the whole thing so much easier to bear. #silverlinings #brightside #perspective #gravelroads P.S- My first thought when I saw that flat was "This is what I get for driving all over looking for hi mag mineral for my cows" 😂

Weekend Walks 6.30.24…. simply cannot believe the end of June already. In the business world, it is the end of Q2. On personal side, summer flying by…where does the time go? I know this, goes by too fast so hopefully everyone making the most of it, especially with the big Holiday weekend coming up! Once again, lots of thoughts swirling around while walking, but today’s thoughts are mainly around how humbled and honored I am in becoming part of the great team at Steel Lion, LLC in an advisory role. Granted I didn’t think I’d be jumping back into a role like this so quickly, but when a friend comes to you asking for help, it worked right into my mantra of giving back and working/helping those who I can support with my background. So, “just when I thought I was out, they pull back in”!! More to come on Steel Lion, LLC as I start to help Kenneth Mintz and Eric Timmerman with the parcel side of their business, supporting them by fine tuning their parcel service offering. My main goal is to ensure the Steel Lion, LLC parcel offering is as strong and complimentary to their other portfolio service offerings, supporting Steel Lion’s Mission of  “Delivering Freight Solutions with Integrity and Performance Excellence”. For today though, a little levity as couldn’t keep this scene out of my head either while walking! Have a great week ahead everyone! #helpthemgrow #freightsolutions #logisticesupport #weekendwalks
