Carolyn Stradley is the founder of C&S Paving Inc.(铺路公司) in Atlanta,USA.In the following account,(在下面的帐户) she recalls the job that challenged her imagination and skill but left her flying high.
“When the Atlanta Airport was under construction in 1979,we were a new company struggling to make it.National Car Rental wanted to have 2,500 square meters of dirt paved so the cars could be on site when the airport opened,and the official opening was only ten days away!No other local paving company wanted to do the job,stating it couldn’t be done in such a short time.
“Because we were new and really needed the work,we were willing to try harder.We gave National Car Rental our offer and promised our best effort to get the job finished within ten days.We also reminded them that if we failed,they would be no worse off,but they had plenty to gain if we succeeded.
“We got the job and immediately went into action.Working at night needed lights,so I rented a machine to produce electricity for the site.Our next challenge was to keep the rock mixture wet enough.All the available water wagons (洒水车) were rented out for the airport construction,and we certainly couldn’t afford to buy a new one.Instead,I got a special permit to rent fire engine hoses (消防水龙带) and connect them to nearby hydrants (消防栓); then I personally held one of those hoses to water down the rock.
“Those ten days were filled with challenges that required one creative idea after another.Nine days later,the night before the airport opened,National Car Rental was the only company that had cars on the parking lot.
“The key to our success was having the courage to take on any job and then being creative in our approach to getting it done.”
Carolyn Stradley是一所在美国亚特兰大的铺路公司的创始人之一.在下面的帐户,她回忆挑战她的技能和想象力的工作,但能让她更进一步.
“1979年当亚特兰大机场还在施工中时,我们是一家新公司并在努力在完成它.国家汽车租赁希望当机场开放时,有2500平方米的泥土的搭乘的,车辆也可以在现场,但正式开通就在10天后!当地其他铺设公司都不想做这项工作,还说这不可能在这么短的时间内完成.
“因为我们是新的公司并真的需要工作,我们愿意付出更大的努力.我们给了国家汽车租赁我方的报价,并承诺尽最大的努力去在10天内完成这工作.我们也提醒他们,如果我们失败了,他们的状况不会变得更糟,但是如果我们成功了他们会有很多收益.
“我们得到了那份工作,立刻付诸行动.晚上工作需要灯,所以我租了一个机器为工地提供电.我们下一个挑战是,保持岩石混合物足够湿.所有可用的洒水车都被租去机场建设,我们当然支付不起买个新的.相反,我得到了一个特别许可证的消防水龙带,将它们连接到附近的消防栓上,然后我亲自抓着其中一根来浇湿岩石.
“那十天充满了挑战,要求一个创意一个接一个.9天之后,机场开放的前一晚,国家汽车租赁是唯一的有这样停车场的公司.
“我们的成功的关键在于勇于承担任何工作,然后用我们的创造性的方式来完成它.”
先用GOOGLE再自己润色的,也是花了心思的.
