Most people might know Mr.Johnny Ramsey as the guy who fixes computers when they are not working. When asked what he does, Ramsey says that he does “all things IT”. In a school that's a lot of things. Some examples are making sure the bells and doors are on schedule and that all security cameras are working as they should. When asked if he gets appreciation for what he does Ramsey says the appreciation he gets is "very unique”.
He said, 'I don’t get a thank you most times but I don't know of any person that doesn't appreciate someone helping them and getting it done quickly.’ Even though most people don’t say thank you he still feels appreciated. He said helping people is also what motivates him to continue working as hard as he does. The final question he was asked was, “If there are any, what are the downsides of your job”?
Ramsey answered this by saying “ The only downside to this job is when I can’t fix something immediately.” So next time you see Mr.Johnny Ramsey you might want to give him a thank you or even an atta boy because I know we all appreciate it when our Chromebooks work.
Reminder that if your K-6 student is interested in Scouting America, there is a meeting tonight in the Library at 6:30. Please enter through the back of the school.
