One category overlooked for an award at The Echo’s 40th birthday party was for the long-serving drudges.
Jenny Dalimore, Steve Berriman, Vicky and Tas have been part of The Echo’s distribution team for decades, turning up week after week, year in, year out to ensure The Echo gets delivered to homes around the Shire.
Reliable, dependable staff who go the extra mile when needed doing an essential but less glamorous job rarely rate a mention.
I think the distribution team wins the award for most overlooked and under-appreciated workers no one thinks about until they don’t turn up.
For four decades The Echo has printed the stories some people loved, some people hated, and some pretended not to read. If you want us to keep telling the truth, the real truth, not the sugar-coated version. We’ll need your support to keep the presses rolling.
