I have always been the one to contact the plumbing fixtures company and place the orders or if something needed to be repaired but I have decided to hand over that responsibility to my manager. He has worked for me for ten years now and really needs to start taking the reins little by little. I will probably retire sometime in the next five years and by that time; I hope to teach him everything he needs to know about this company.

I gave him his first task with handling the plumbing fixtures company and told him to work with them redesigning the bathrooms. I think that he was a little shocked that I trusted him to make such big decisions but I would still oversee everything but just from a distance.

My manager chose to install a waterless urinal in the men’s restroom and I thought that it was a great idea. Not only would it cut down on water costs, but it would look clean and modern too. I made sure that he did not break the budget with the purchase of the waterless urinal and he did not, that is when I knew that he could handle it.
