"From Bogota Columbia" by Steve Adams

Two years ago, I was troubleshooting a very technical problem for a customer.  While my experience is substantial, I will use tech support when necessary.  On this occasion, I had a very capable technician.  We would have time to chat some as the process worked out and I enjoyed the side banter and shared stories.  We exchanged email and continued the discussion for a few days.

This week, I received a new email from Christian.  I was stunned because it had been over a year since we last spoke, but his mail told me he was from Bogota, Columbia and that he just graduated with an Electrical Engineering degree.  His first day at his new job was yesterday and he sent some pictures of the commencement and some of his family’s farm.

I have spoken about the impact we have on others before, but this surprise email from a newly degreed engineer from South America reminded me yet again that we have the power to influence people either negatively or positively.  I hope mine is ALWAYS positive.
